The luxury real estate market on the French Riviera is one of the most attractive in the Mediterranean region. Vacation homes and secondary residences on the French Riviera not only offer incomparable style and quality of life but also represent, in view of the international economic situation, a safe investment and a smart retirement project, particularly in premium locations. Cagnes-sur-Mer, in close proximity to Nice Côte d'Azur Airport and major roads, is a melting pot of cultures and retains traces of a rich artistic past while looking towards a future filled with festivals and shows. It can be considered a city of art, heritage, and history. The famous painter, Auguste Renoir, settled in the famous neo-Provençal Cagnes mansion, the Domaine des Collettes. Today, it houses a museum exhibiting his works. The long seaside promenade is just a few meters from the Cagnes-sur-Mer racecourse, the second largest in the provinces. Some 6,000 daily visitors flock there to attend the exciting horse races.
