La Rousse- Saint Roman

The eastern edge.

La Rousse – Saint Roman sits at the eastern end of the Principality, where Monaco meets the French border and the coast turns toward Roquebrune. It is a district of height: modern towers rising above the sea, many of their apartments carrying long, uninterrupted views along the coastline.

The beaches of Larvotto are a short walk one way, the border a step the other, which makes it one of the easiest parts of Monaco to move in and out of. Calmer than Monte-Carlo and more contemporary than the old centre, it appeals to residents who want space, light and a high floor without the pace of the casino district. The apartments tend to be larger and more recent, the views generous, the atmosphere residential.

For a buyer drawn to modern living, sea views from above, and the ease of the eastern edge, La Rousse – Saint Roman is among the most practical of the prime addresses – and among the most comfortable to live in year-round.
