Côte d’Azur - Antibes - A lane in the old town
Côte d’Azur · Alpes-Maritimes
Home Select searches, visits and negotiates for you in Antibes. You only visit the properties shortlisted, and nothing is due before the deed is signed.
Your project
Home Select is a buyer’s agent in Antibes, searching since 2011 on the exclusive behalf of the buyer, from Old Antibes and Port Vauban to the estates of the Cap d’Antibes. Home Select opens access to off-market properties, the rule on the cape, with fees 100% on success and nothing upfront.
Between the largest marina in Europe and the pine groves of the cap, Antibes plays on two registers: the old town and its ramparts facing the open sea, and the Cap d’Antibes, a confidential market of world rank where properties trade away from view. Juan-les-Pins adds a lively seafront, to be sorted with rigour.
A buyer’s agent works for the buyer, and for the buyer alone. Here is what Home Select changes, concretely, for your purchase in Antibes.
A Home Select finder writes your brief, launches the search within the week and stays with you until the deed is signed. Home Select answers every enquiry within 24 working hours.
Home Select receives more than 100 off-market properties a day from its 15,000 partners, agents, notaries and managing agents, before they go on sale. The finest addresses in Antibes often change hands this way.
Home Select pre-visits every property on commented video and shows only 3 properties on average, instead of 40 when searching alone, grouped into a single trip if you come from afar.
Home Select negotiates 6% on average off the asking price, with the area’s actual sales in hand, and checks every document before you commit. Also paid 10% of the negotiated reduction, Home Select has every reason to bring the price down: you keep 90% of every euro saved. Fees are due on success: nothing before signing.
Côte d’Azur - Antibes - The cape and Port Vauban from the air
A buyer-side search mandate, a written method, fees due on success. Here is what you entrust to Home Select in Antibes.
They search on your behalf and for you alone, from the written brief to the checking of every document up to the final deed: the six steps are detailed below. Home Select works for the buyer, never for the seller.
A main home, a second home, a pied-à-terre or a long-term wealth purchase in Antibes, whether you are on site or abroad: the search is run remotely, video viewings included, up to the decisive viewing.
Home Select runs two offers, with the same full service: the Exclusive offer, an exclusive mandate, 2.5% of the net purchase price, minimum €10,000 incl. VAT, at every budget; the Confidential offer, a simple mandate reserved for projects of €2m and above, 1.5% of the net purchase price, dedicated to off-market properties. In both cases, 10% of the negotiated reduction is added to the fees, and nothing is due until you have bought.
The calendar depends on the market in Antibes and on how rare the target property is: Home Select sets it at the first conversation, then holds it, and answers within one working day.

On the cap, the window opens before any listing, which never comes: circulate a precise brief among the right intermediaries, and check from the outset the coastal footpath easement, access to the water and the condition of boundary walls.
Facing the sea, salt spray ages façades, ironwork and waterproofing fast: read the recent general-meeting minutes, the maintenance record and the co-ownership rules before falling for a view. The service charges tell the building’s story better than the photograph.
On an international market, the rare property goes to whoever can commit: proof of funds ready, notary appointed, financing cleared in advance. Group the viewings into a single trip and keep a window open to sign; here, hesitation costs.
From your brief to the handover of the keys: what Home Select does for you in Antibes, and what you gain from it.
Everything starts with a thorough conversation: the use of the property, the real budget, the non-negotiable criteria, the calendar. This written framing becomes the roadmap of the hunt, and avoids the months lost viewing beside the point.
Every property put to you matches your brief: the search hits the mark from the first week.
Home Select covers the whole market: published listings, and above all what is never displayed anywhere. Home Select receives more than 100 properties every day from its 15,000 professional partners before they go on sale, and approaches owners directly when the setting calls for it.
You see properties before the market does, and sometimes properties that will never be published.
Every lead is verified and analysed for you, on file then on a video viewing: technical sheet, first figures. You only travel for properties that truly match the brief.
Fewer journeys: your decisive viewings grouped into a single trip, on the shortlisted properties only.
The offer is drafted and defended by Home Select, complete file in hand. The negotiation covers the price, but also the conditions, the timelines and the works revealed.
You buy at the right price, every offer defended with the area’s actual sales in hand.
Preliminary contract read line by line, surveys, co-ownership rules, charges, easements: every document is checked before you commit. The points of vigilance specific to each local market are in Home Select’s checklists.
You commit with full knowledge of the facts, with no bad surprise after signing.
Home Select stays by your side through to the signing before the notaire, and after: contractors, formalities, moving. Its work ends when you are settled in, not when the deed is signed.
A timetable framed at the first conversation, then kept: at every stage you know where your purchase stands.
A share of the finest sales in Antibes completes without ever being listed. Home Select receives more than 100 properties every day from its 15,000 professional partners before publication, and also approaches owners directly when the setting calls for it.

Côte d’Azur - Antibes - The old town on its ramparts
Page updated on 20 October 2026, reviewed by Jean Mascla, founder of Home Select
Over the 12 months to end of June 2026, 2,164 sales were recorded in Antibes: enough to choose from, never enough for the finest addresses.
The median for apartments is up +13% since June 2022, +2% in the last year alone: the trend holds, and sellers know it.
Sales range from €3,600/m² to €7,900/m²: address and condition make the price.
Antibes lives on two markets that everything separates: the old town and Juan-les-Pins, deep, lively, demanding on sorting, and the Cap d’Antibes, confidential, global, where properties trade away from view. The same search often covers both: a town apartment for the year, a villa on the cape for the summer.
On the cape, the essential is not displayed: large properties under the pines circulate between advisers, families and professionals. Value depends on closeness to the water, coastal servitudes and the condition of accesses, and the buying window is prepared long in advance.
| 12 months to end of June | Median | Sales counted (apartments) |
|---|---|---|
| 2022 | €4,600/m² | 2,363 |
| 2023 | €4,900/m² | 2,233 |
| 2024 | €5,000/m² | 1,855 |
| 2025 | €5,100/m² | 1,832 |
| 2026 | €5,200/m² | 1,949 |
Median for apartments over 12 months to end of June, year by year. A period without enough sales at the threshold is not published: the curve skips it rather than inventing a point.
The city and its department: Antibes trades 6% above its department median (€4,900/m²), same vintage and same method.

Côte d’Azur - Antibes - The Cap d’Antibes and its villas
From the maze within the ramparts to the parasol pines of the cap, Antibes moves to two tempos, one urban and lively, one secret.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
The market, the neighbourhoods, the addresses
We find the property of your dreams in Antibes
Antibes at a glance
Mornings begin under the covered hall of the Cours Masséna, at the Provençal market: cut flowers, goat’s cheeses from the hills, warm socca. The Promenade Amiral de Grasse then runs between ramparts and sea to the Château Grimaldi and its Picasso museum, before dropping back to Port Vauban, where classic sailing yachts sit alongside the great hulls of the Quai des Milliardaires. In the evening, the tables of old Antibes fill early, from bistros on small squares to discreet gastronomic addresses.
The rhythm changes with the seasons. Summer belongs to La Garoupe and its beach cabanas, to Jazz à Juan evenings under the Gould pine grove, to early swims at La Salis. Out of season, the coastal path known as the Sentier de Tire-Poil circles the cap through the scent of Aleppo pines, and the winter light returns the ramparts to their calm. The town then lives year-round, markets included, which sets it apart from many resorts.
Antibes combines two worlds: a town that lives all year, carried by Sophia Antipolis and its international families, and the discreet properties of Cap d’Antibes or the town houses of old Antibes. That double anchoring is what sets Antibes apart on the coast. What remains is to check, property by property, the building management, the charges, walking access to the sea and parking.
Cap d’Antibes for the discreet property under the pines, old Antibes for the town house inside the ramparts, Juan-les-Pins for the lively seafront: three very different uses. For a seasonal stay, the decisive question remains walking access to the sea and parking, two things no photograph shows.
Antibes is a year-round town, carried by Sophia Antipolis: international schools, shops open in winter, a port that lives through the season. International families are numerous here, which simplifies schooling. The heights offer gardens, old Antibes life on foot. Nice and its airport are twenty-five minutes away.
Antibes is about twenty minutes from Nice-Côte d’Azur airport, France’s third busiest, which flies direct to more than 100 destinations including London, Dubai, the main European hubs and New York in season. Antibes station sits on the coastal line and takes the TGV: Paris is about 5 h 30 away, with links to Geneva, Milan and Brussels. The regional train puts Cannes a quarter of an hour away and Nice twenty-five minutes, which makes living here without a car realistic.
The international community in Antibes. Antibes is home to one of the oldest international communities on the Riviera, fed by the Port Vauban marina and decades of English-speaking presence tied to yachting. Schools, shops and services routinely operate in English. The market itself splits sharply: on the cape, large properties change hands without ever appearing in a listing, while the seafront is decided building by building.
When to visit, when to buy? The market follows the Riviera calendar: active in spring, March to June, then at the September-October return, slowed but never halted through the summer. In Juan-les-Pins, July and August saturate traffic and parking, which makes viewings hard to use. For a remote buyer, May-June and then September-October remain the windows to aim for; the quieter winter shows the town’s true residential face.
Because the local market has its own rules. On the cap, off-market is the rule: large estates never appear in a listing. A buyer’s agent works for you alone, on the buyer’s side: daily monitoring, access to off-market sales, strict shortlisting and negotiation. Since 2011, Home Select has run more than 1,200 searches with this method, rated 4.8/5 on Google.
Based on actual recorded sales (DVF / DGFiP via data.gouv.fr, October 2026 release, 12 months to end of June 2026), the median price in Antibes stands at €5,200/m² for an apartment and €6,800/m² for a house. Across the sectors of the survey, the median ranges from €4,300/m² (Saint-Paul-de-Vence et Vence) to €6,800/m² (Biot et Valbonne). These medians are market benchmarks, not an appraisal: the address, the floor, the condition and scarcity make the final price.
Over the 12 months to end of June 2026, 2 rooms traded at a median of €5,200/m², on a median surface of 46 sqm (DVF / DGFiP via data.gouv.fr, October 2026 release, 12 months to end of June 2026). A median home of the bracket changes hands around €239,000; condition, floor and address then make the rest of the price.
Yes, but almost never through listings: cap properties circulate between professionals and through direct approach. It is a market of patience and network, exactly a buyer’s agent’s market.
For a pied-à-terre facing the sea, yes, provided you sort severely: buildings, seasonality and address quality create major gaps. Home Select only presents what holds its value.
Over the 12 months to end of June 2026, 2,164 sales were recorded in Antibes: enough to choose from, never enough for the finest addresses. The median for apartments is up +13% since June 2022, +2% in the last year alone: the trend holds, and sellers know it.
The calendar depends on how rare the target property is in Antibes 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.
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 Antibes, the monitoring starts with two sectors: Cap d’Antibes, then Old Antibes and Port Vauban. That is often where the unfindable property is.
For life on foot, old Antibes: the Provençal market, the ramparts, the restaurants, everything without a car. For the beach, the Salis and Garoupe side, between town and cap. The heights suit longer stays, with gardens and views. The right choice follows real use: week or season, on foot or set back.
Yes, but not through listings: on the cape, the large properties under the pines never appear, and the confidential market is world-class. The preparation happens upstream, knowledge of the estates and their owners included. Old Antibes, La Salis and La Garoupe offer real alternatives of character; Juan-les-Pins demands serious sorting between tourism stock and genuine addresses.
The co-ownership before the view: on the seafront, the condition of the building, the charges and the voted works change the value of one and the same floor. Then the cape’s local rules, protected zones and easements included. And since the market moves fast, a complete file, financing and guarantees in place, makes the difference between seeing the property and winning it.
The cape draws international families, British, Scandinavian, American, often already owners elsewhere in the Mediterranean, buying for a generation. Old Antibes and La Salis appeal to Parisians buying second homes and Sophia Antipolis professionals settling year-round. On rare properties, speed of decision and file strength win: both are prepared.
Nice airport is twenty minutes away, the TGV stops at Antibes: the town is covered in one efficient day. The cape asks more: confidential properties open on a prepared appointment, file in hand. Home Select’s network work starts weeks before the trip: it makes the list, not the portals.
On the cape, properties under the pines live to the rhythm of garden upkeep, green fences and accesses; on the seafront, voted charges change the real cost. Old Antibes asks for the classic repairs of old fabric. Every item is costed before the offer: that is Home Select’s rule.
Yes, though not as a local branch: outside Île-de-France, Home Select runs every search from its head office, with its network of 15,000 professional partners. Each property is vetted on paper, then toured in a video pre-viewing led with the seller’s agent, and you travel only once, for the decisive viewings. The guide “Buying property in France remotely” spells out how it works.
To hunt in Antibes, check four points: a search mandate on the buyer’s side only, published fees due on success, a written method, proof that lasts. Home Select answers all four: founded in 2011, 1,200+ buyers guided, 4.8/5 on Google (139 reviews), fees displayed, 100% on success.
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.
The questions common to every city (purchase costs, remote search, choosing your finder) are gathered on one page.
One point of contact, one method, the same fees: the search does not stop at the limits of Antibes. Many projects play out over two or three towns, and the brief allows for it from the first conversation.
