Nice, Alpes-Maritimes, Provence-Alps-Cote d`Azur, France

In the antiques quarter, nestled between the castle and the Port, this two bedroom apartment sits on a quiet road with a view across the Port and the luxury yachts. Facing east, it has a long balcony with views sweeping from Place Garibaldi direction just up the road to the sea heading to Corsica. It is on the second floor, with no lift, of a well maintained historic building. A two minute walk down the steps in front takes you into the harbour itself.

Walking into the apartment takes you into a large living room, with the good size balcony off it, and the long fully-fitted kitchen at the end has everything you need. The floor-to-ceiling windows are bright and sunny. Off the living room are two bedrooms with double beds and storage, one at the front with views and the other very quiet facing the castle hill. A large bathroom, a separate toilet, and a storage cupboard complete this apartment.

A NOTE FOR SERIOUS BUYERS

Choosing the right apartment in Nice is about considerably more than finding an attractive listing. The building, exact street, orientation, noise, service charges, condition of the copropriété and how the price compares with genuine alternatives can make an enormous difference.
