The villa market in Menton, in figures
The Menton villa is first a matter of gardens and period: Garavan lines up Belle Époque houses planted with citrus, Carnolès keeps its residential calm, the Annonciade hills sell the view over the bay and Italy. In a town of pedestrian seafront, the villa is only a small share of sales, and the best addresses pass without a listing. Demand comes from Northern European retirees, from Italian buyers out of Liguria and from Monaco workers looking for space minutes from the principality.
Around the town the scale changes fast: Roquebrune-Cap-Martin and its corniche villas on the Monaco side, Gorbio and Castellar and their perched village houses, Sainte-Agnès and Peille above the coast, then the Roya valley, from Sospel to Breil-sur-Roya, the most affordable of the survey; Beausoleil, glued to Monaco, remains a town of apartments. The trade-off is clear: the garden by the water in Menton, the perched view in the villages, the gentlest budget in the Roya. Every sector of the survey compares with the Menton median before the first viewing.

Frequently asked questions
Buying a villa in Menton: your questions
A villa in Garavan or on the Annonciade hills?
Two different lives. In Garavan the Belle Époque house lives by the water, planted garden and beach on foot, but it demands the upkeep of a period house. On the Annonciade the villa gains the view over the bay and Italy, at the cost of the car. Both read on the villa median, €5,700/m² over the 12 months to end of June 2026, against €5,100/m² for the seafront apartments.
A villa in Menton or a village house in the hinterland?
The DVF survey for the 12 months to end of June 2026 gives a villa median of €5,700/m² in Menton, against €4,200/m² in Gorbio and Castellar and €1,900/m² in the Roya valley. Menton sells the garden by the water and a town alive all year; the perched villages, stone and a gentler budget. Home Select documents both markets remotely.
What does a villa in Menton cost?
The median stands at €5,700/m² across 34 sales recorded over the 12 months to end of June 2026 (DVF / DGFiP via data.gouv.fr, October 2026 release, 12 months to end of June 2026). It is a market benchmark, not an appraisal: the address, the floor, the condition and scarcity make the final price.
How long does it take to buy in Menton with a property finder?
The calendar depends on how rare the target property is in Menton and on your availability: Home Select frames it at the brief, then holds it. Properties are first seen on video, and your decisive viewings are grouped into a single trip.
How do you reach off-market properties in Menton?
Through the network and direct approach: Home Select receives more than 100 properties every day from its 15,000 professional partners before they go on sale, and also contacts owners when the setting calls for it. In Menton, the monitoring starts with two sectors: the old town and the seafront, then the Garavan bay. That is often where the unfindable property is.
What are your fees for buying a villa in Menton?
Home Select, a property finder in Menton, charges 2.5% of the net purchase price (minimum €10,000 incl. VAT) on the Exclusive offer, or 1.5% on the Confidential offer for projects of €2m and above. Home Select is paid on success only: nothing is due until you have bought.
