As the summer cools down, Saint Tropez’s property market is hotting up…
As property prices continue rise in the world’s most expensive cities, their property markets are slowing down. This is leading more and more international buyers to search property hotspots in Saint Tropez and the Riviera for real estate investment opportunities.
Saint Tropez has always been one of the most coveted locations on the Riviera and more than half of the properties in this exclusive corner of the Côte d’Azur are second homes. While it is also one of the most expensive places to buy property in the world, certain changes in the French property market mean that buyers can currently afford to buy properties that might previously have been unattainable.
“As a safe haven location for property investment we are seeing an unprecedented number of overseas buyers making enquiries and buying properties in Saint Tropez,” says Tim Swannie, Director of Home Hunts. “It is a unique time for the French Riviera property market because asking prices have dropped over the past few years,” he adds. “When you put that together with the low mortgage rates and the amazing exchange rates on offer, there has not been a better time to buy in more than ten years and savvy buyers are realising this.”
Three of the best property hotspots in Saint Tropez
If you are looking to buy property in Saint Tropez, these luxurious houses in various property hotspots in Saint Tropez will help you to kick start your search.
Perfectly positioned in the Parcs de Saint-Tropez
Renowned for being the largest and most desirable private domain in the area, the Parcs de Saint-Tropez is one of the most sought after property hotspots in Saint Tropez.
This incredible seven-bedroom waterfront villa (HH-9000982) offers a rare opportunity to buy in this exclusive location. With panoramic views over the Gulf of Saint-Tropez to the Alps, the property is on two levels with direct access to the sea and private jetty. While stunning throughout, its highlights include a Jacuzzi and private beach access. The price is available on application.
Live in luxury by Club 55
Saint Tropez is famous the world over for its spectacular beaches, but Plage de Pampelonne in Ramatuelle is the most popular. This is partly due to its famous beach club, Le Club 55, where stars and celebrities from all walks of life can be found.
This beautiful five-bedroom property (HH-5204429) is located in Ramatuelle, in one of the most desirable property hotspots in Saint Tropez. Just a few steps away from the beach and Le Club 55 means it also provides a breath-taking 180-degree sea view over Pampelonne Bay. An immaculately-designed property, with lush manicured gardens and a stunning swimming pool, this property will not be on the market for long. The price is available on application.
Home is where the heart is
The Place des Lices is right at the very centre of Saint Tropez and one of the most coveted property hotspots in Saint Tropez. Surrounded by old plane trees and the venue for the weekly market and boules matches, it is, without doubt, a privilege to reside by such a highly-prized location.
This charming six-bedroom house (HH-8327354) was built recently in 2012 and is just three minutes away from the Place des Lices. A playroom, home cinema and Jacuzzi (with outside shower) are just a few of its best features, but it is also south-facing and entirely gated for complete security and privacy.
