A Quiet Residence for Relocation, Sabbaticals and Extended Stays on Mont Boron – Nice

This architect-renovated 77 sqm (861 sq ft) end-to-end corner apartment is located in Mont Boron, one of Nice’s most peaceful and prestigious residential neighborhoods.

The residence is particularly suited to relocation projects, sabbaticals, academic exchanges, research visits, extended professional assignments, or individuals exploring a long-term move to the French Riviera.

Many guests choose to stay here while evaluating a property purchase or planning a permanent relocation to the region.

This is a private residence designed for thoughtful and independent living. It is not intended as holiday accommodation or short-term tourist lodging.

Despite its proximity to the city centre, the apartment remains remarkably quiet due to its elevated position above the Port.
