Cap d'Antibes: an outstanding setting and an exceptional property market

Cap d'Antibes represents the very best of the Côte d'Azur. From its luxury villas with mythical stories, through its breathtaking panoramas, to its unspoilt location and proximity to modern infrastructures, “Le Cap d'Antibes” never stops to seduce. 

This undoubtedly explains the dynamism of the property market and the continuing demand for dream villas and flats.

Cap d'Antibes: a natural luxury

A unique experience. That's what the peninsula feels like. A region apart, with a very low population density. Cap d'Antibes has a year-round population of 1,456, living in a vastly wooded area of 3.7 km2, with a population density of 394 inhabitants/km2, one of the lowest on the Côte d'Azur coastline.

The contrasts. The peninsula combines both a natural, private setting and a proximity to the major town centres that provide easy, comfortable living in Cap d'Antibes. It is close to Nice and its international airport, Monaco and its thriving economy, Sophia-Antipolis and its dynamic economy, and the picturesque town of Antibes and its many cultural attractions. 

An exceptional setting. Its climate and, above all, preserved unspoilt nature ensure a pleasant way of life on a daily basis. Take a walk along the famous coastal path and you'll discover spectacular scenery, with its mix of umbrella pines and charming seaside where the Mediterranean waves crash into secret coves of timeless beauty.

Prestigious buildings. Cap d'Antibes is indelibly linked to a past where the chic of all those who had fallen under its charm allowed the construction of outstanding architectural masterpieces. The great names of celebrities are joined by those of world-renowned establishments: the Hôtel du Cap-Eden-Roc, F. Scott Fitzgerald, the Villa Eilen Roc, Les Chênes Verts... the peninsula has been marked by the signatures of contemporary and former famous architects.
