The cape, the old town, Juan

Antibes reads in three worlds. To the south, the cape, with its villas hidden among the pines between the Garoupe lighthouse and the sea, where an international-scale market plays out. At the heart of the town, the ramparts and the Provençal market, on the edge of Port Vauban, where restored fishermen’s houses and apartments overlooking the yachts mix.

Juan-les-Pins finally: the lively seafront, the beaches, abundant supply and opportunities to sort, from mid-century residences to recent programmes. Between the two, La Salis and the heights offer villas and quiet residential districts.

The districts, one by one

  • 01 Cap d’Antibes large estates under the pines, confidential market of world rank

    The peninsula between the bay of Juan and the Baie des Anges, one of the most sought-after addresses of the Mediterranean: large estates under the pines, the Hôtel du Cap and its gardens, the Garoupe lighthouse and chapel. A world-rank market, almost entirely off-list.

  • 02 Old Antibes and Port Vauban village houses and apartments within the ramparts

    Old Antibes under its Vauban ramparts: colourful village houses, the Provençal market square, character apartments on foot from the port and the Picasso. A deep, living market, where building condition creates every gap.

  • 03 La Salis and La Garoupe villas around the beaches, between town and cape

    The southern slope, between the Salis beach and the Garoupe cove: villas and houses a few steps from the water, views over the cape and the bay. The most sought-after entry point of the cape market, contested as soon as an address comes out.

  • 04 Juan-les-Pins lively seafront, opportunities to sort carefully

    The Jazz à Juan resort: a lively seafront, 1930s and contemporary residences facing the sandy beaches. Real pied-à-terre opportunities, but severe sorting is required: buildings, seasonality, noise and address quality create major gaps.

    Juan-les-Pins

  • 05 The Antibes heights quiet residential quarters, sea and Estérel views

    The residential hills north of the town: quiet tree-lined quarters, family villas, views over the sea and the Estérel massif. A more confidential and more accessible market, where local monitoring surfaces true family houses.

Which property for your project?

  1. Cape villa

    Cap d’Antibes, La Salis and La Garoupe: a villa with grounds and sea access, in one of the coast’s most discreet markets. Almost everything here is handled off-listing.

  2. Old-town pied-à-terre

    Old Antibes and Port Vauban: a characterful flat inside the ramparts, walking distance from the Provençal market and the quays. For regular use, without a car.

  3. Seaside and buzz

    Juan-les-Pins and the heights of Antibes: a seafront flat or a villa above it, between beaches and pines. Check orientation, service charges and the co-ownership rules.

Which district for which project?

The question is never which is the nicest district of Antibes, but which district matches the actual use: the cape estate asks for discretion and upkeep, the old-town house lives on foot, the Juan apartment lives at the pace of the seafront.

  1. 01 For the confidential estate

    Cap d’Antibes: under the pines, between La Garoupe and the coves, a network market.

  2. 02 For life on foot

    Old Antibes: ramparts, Provençal market, Port Vauban, historic-centre character.

  3. 03 For the lively seafront

    Juan-les-Pins: beaches, nightlife, abundant supply to sort file by file.

04Districts

The traps the file reveals

On the cape: access, water, upkeep of great estates, discretion of transactions. In old Antibes: old stock, façades, charges of small co-ownerships. In Juan: heterogeneous supply, charges of residences with pool and park, co-ownership bylaws. The dreamt-of address and the purchasable address are not always the same: that is where Home Select’s work starts.

On the ground

Why a buyer’s agent in Antibes?

The best addresses never list

On this market, a share of the sought-after properties sells before publication, between families and through notaires and local networks. Home Select receives more than 100 off-market properties every day from its network of 15,000 partners.

You only view the essential

Every lead is verified and priced for you before you travel, on file then on a video viewing: you view only the shortlisted properties, your decisive viewings grouped into a single trip. Home Select then defends your offer, with a complete file and the actual sales of the area in hand.

The building audited before you commit

Surveys, co-ownership rules, easements, local building specifics: every document is checked before you commit.

One method, two ways in

Both are billed only if the property is found and the purchase completed.

The Confidential offer

Where to buy in Antibes: your questions

Which is the most sought-after district of Antibes?

The Cap d’Antibes, without question: it is the peninsula of grand villas and legendary hotels, where sea-facing estates rank among the most expensive on the French Riviera. Old Antibes is its character counterpart, for life on foot and authentic Provence.

Is Juan-les-Pins worth considering?

It is the town’s liveliest seafront: beaches, shops, nightlife, with abundant supply and opportunities to sort. The charges of serviced residences weigh on the arbitrage there: the file decides, not the listing.

Where can I find a house in Antibes?

In old Antibes for the village house within the ramparts, in La Salis and around the beaches for villas, in the heights for quiet residential districts with sea and Estérel views. The cape plays in the confidential great-estate category.

What are your fees in Antibes?

Home Select, a buyer’s agent in Antibes, 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, plus 10% of the negotiated reduction in both cases. Home Select is paid on success only, and also on what you save: nothing is due until you have bought.
