EXCLUSIVITÉ – NICE – MUSICIENS Élégance bourgeoise & art de vivre
Dans l’un des plus beaux "Palais" immeubles bourgeois du quartier des Musiciens, édifié en 1924, cet appartement d’environ 95m² entièrement rénové conjugue avec justesse le charme de l’ancien et le confort contemporain.
Dès l’entrée, le ton est donné : hauteur sous plafond remarquable, moulures délicates, parquet en point de Hongrie, volumes nobles, lumière omniprésente. Le cœur de l’appartement s’articule autour d’un vaste espace de réception d’environ 35m², où le séjour et la cuisine ouverte dialoguent harmonieusement. Les quatre balcons apportent une respiration permanente, une sensation d’espace et une qualité de lumière rare en centre-ville. L’espace nuit propose : une belle suite parentale avec salle d’eau attenante, une seconde chambre élégante, une salle de bains indépendante, un WC séparé.
En complément, l’appartement est vendu avec un studio indépendant de 13m² sous les toits — parfait pour un adolescent, un bureau, un espace invité ainsi qu’une cave. Un art de vivre niçois au quotidien. Le quartier des Musiciens séduit par sa proximité des commerces de qualité, écoles, tramway, gare, jardins, plages et hypercentre. Depuis la rue, la coupole du Negresco s’offre au regard et le boulevard Victor Hugo est accessible en trois minutes à pied.
Possibilité d'un parking fermé avec un second emplacement devant.

Location
Open in Google MapsLiving in Nice
The jewel of the French Riviera with a Mediterranean climate, stunning coastline, and an established international community including many British and American expats. Living costs are higher than most French cities outside Paris, but the year-round sunshine, outdoor lifestyle, and proximity to Italy and Monaco make it a perennial favorite. More English is spoken here than in most French cities, though French remains essential for bureaucracy and deeper integration.
Morning baguettes from the corner boulangerie, two-hour lunches with wine that no one apologizes for, and the slow realization that the French were right about everything involving food.

Next steps for moving to France
Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.
Understand the buying rules
Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.
Sort out your visa
Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.
Plan your finances
Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.
Know your tax obligations
US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.
Set up healthcare
Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.
Run the full checklist
Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
