The Chemin de Nietzsche climbs from the shoreline to the perched medieval village, while the private peninsula of Cap Estel anchors the waterfront beside the Gare d'Èze-sur-Mer. Tucked discreetly between Cap-d'Ail and Beaulieu-sur-Mer, it draws buyers who want a Monaco-adjacent address without Monaco's crowds.

How to buy in Èze-sur-Mer

Èze-sur-Mer's cliffside contemporary villas are prized for absolute privacy and direct sea access on the Basse Corniche.

The process

  1. 1

    Engage a Riviera advisor

    Your agent curates on- and off-market villas and represents you through to signing — the off-market layer is where Cap-Ferrat and Saint-Tropez trophies trade.

  2. 2

    Offer & compromis de vente

    On agreement you sign a compromis (preliminary contract) with a deposit (commonly 5–10%); the buyer has a 10-day cooling-off right.

  3. 3

    Notaire & due diligence

    The notaire runs title, surveys (DDT diagnostics), planning and charge checks over roughly 8–12 weeks.

  4. 4

    Structuring & funds

    Decide on direct or SCI ownership, arrange financing, and budget the annual IFI wealth tax if net French real estate exceeds €1.3M.

  5. 5

    Acte authentique

    The final deed is signed before the notaire; the balance, duties and fees settle and possession transfers.
