Up in the Bellet hills, life slows to a Riviera rhythm-vineyards, wide skies, and the Mediterranean stretching out on the horizon. This 131.52 m2,3-bedroom penthouse on the 1st floor opens onto 25.81 m2 of outdoor space, perfectly oriented south-west for warm afternoon light and golden sunsets. Contemporary architecture, refined finishes, and a calm residential setting create a sense of privacy while keeping Nice close at hand. A residents-only pool and sun deck complete the everyday holiday feel.
The Mediterranean as Your Everyday Horizon
In the Bellet district, the French Riviera feels more intimate&mdash higher, greener, and wonderfully unhurried. Here, winding roads climb through rolling hills where vineyards and elegant villas sit quietly among olive trees, and the sea appears and disappears between the contours of the landscape. This is a side of Nice that locals cherish: A village-like atmosphere above the buzz, with the coastline never far away and the mountains forming a dramatic backdrop beyond the city.
Set into this peaceful hillside setting, this 3-bedroom penthouse invites you to live with light, air, and outlook at the centre of every day. The orientation is south-west, capturing the warmth of the afternoon and the gentle theatre of sunset as the Mediterranean shifts from bright azure to deeper evening tones. It is a home designed to feel calm and contemporary, while staying connected to the rhythm of the city below.
Space That Feels Effortless
With 131.52 m² of thoughtfully composed interior living space, the apartment offers the sense of scale expected of a penthouse&mdash room to gather, room to retreat, and room to simply breathe. Set on the 1st floor, it balances privacy with easy day-to-day access, an ideal combination for year-round living in Nice.
Ceilings rise to 2.60 m, adding a subtle generosity that changes how each room feels: Brighter, more open, and more refined. A wide presence of windows and glazed openings is central to the architectural philosophy of the residence, inviting the outside in and creating multiple viewpoints throughout the apartment&mdash always with the sea as a guiding line in the distance.
The interior palette is clean and contemporary, grounded by premium, durable materials. Flooring is finished in 60 × 60 cm porcelanosa porcelain stoneware (or equivalent) across the home, including hallways, living areas, bedrooms, kitchen area, and bathrooms/shower rooms&mdash an elegant choice that suits the Riviera climate and keeps maintenance refreshingly simple.
Three Bedrooms, A Home That Works Around You
The layout includes three bedrooms, offering flexibility for family life, visiting guests, or a dedicated office that still feels like part of the home rather than an afterthought. A penthouse in this setting naturally lends itself to a lifestyle of easy hosting&mdash weekends that begin with coffee outdoors, afternoons that drift between the city and the hills, and evenings that end with the lights of the coastline flickering beyond the terrace.
Bathrooms reflect the same quietly premium approach. They are described as fully fitted, featuring porcelanosa wall tiles (30 × 90 cm), a vanity unit with mirror, and an electric heated towel rail. Wall-hung toilets underline the contemporary finish, keeping lines clean and the overall feel crisp and modern.
Comfort in Every Season
Nice is a city of seasons&mdash bright winters, early springs, long warm evenings, and the kind of summer that begs for shade at midday. The apartment is equipped with a ducted air conditioning/heating system powered by a heat pump, offering a calm, unobtrusive way to keep the interior comfortable throughout the year.
Open Air Living &mdash 25.81 m² to Dine, Lounge, and Unwind
Life on the Riviera belongs outdoors, and this penthouse embraces that instinct beautifully. The apartment extends to 25.81 m² of outside space&mdash an open-air companion to the interior, designed for the moments that make this part of France so irresistible.
With a south-west orientation, the terrace becomes a natural stage for afternoon relaxation and evening gatherings. Imagine long, late lunches that stretch into the softer light of early evening, the last warmth of the day lingering in the stone and glass around you. The sea view brings perspective and calm&mdash an ever-present reminder that you are living on the edge of the Mediterranean, even when you are tucked into the quiet hills above the city.
The residence&rsquo s design places importance on privacy as well as outlook. The buildings are described as spaced and staggered to preserve views and help ensure each home enjoys its own sense of seclusion&mdash an important detail in a world where outdoor space matters more than ever.
A Contemporary Residence Shaped by the Hillside
The setting is not an afterthought it is the foundation of the architecture. Built to follow the natural slope of the land, the residence blends into its surroundings rather than imposing on them. Materials are chosen to echo the local landscape, including solid load-bearing cut stone from local quarries, fine-grain mineral render, aluminium window and door frames, and glass guard rails that keep sightlines open to the horizon.
In total, the residence comprises a limited collection of 16 apartments, ranging from 2 to 4 rooms. The focus is on light, ventilation, and a feeling of openness&mdash qualities reinforced by the abundance of windows and door openings mentioned in the brochure. It is a modern way of living, designed for comfort and longevity, with attention paid to the details that quietly elevate daily life.
Poolside Calm, Reserved for Residents
One of the most appealing luxuries here is shared&mdash but never public. A private pool and sun deck, reserved exclusively for residents, overlooks the Mediterranean garden. It is the kind of amenity that changes the pace of a day: A morning swim before work, a cooling dip after a summer outing, or an unhurried hour on a sun lounger while the cicadas provide the soundtrack.
Security and Peace of Mind
The residence is designed with secure access in mind. Entry is controlled via keypad, video intercom, and a vigik system. The apartment entrance door is fitted with an A2P 3-point lock, reinforcing the sense of privacy and reassurance&mdash especially valuable for those who divide their time between the Riviera and elsewhere.
Bellet, Nice &mdash Village Atmosphere Above the City
Bellet sits in the heights of Nice, bordered by the hills of Saint-Pierre-de-Fé ric and La Ginestiè re. The landscape is rolling and green, punctuated by viewpoints and celebrated vineyards that give the area its proud identity. It is a place where you can step into a more tranquil daily rhythm, yet still reach the essentials with ease.
According to the brochure&rsquo s indicative travel times, everyday conveniences and key destinations are close: A bus stop (&ldquo La Mairie&rdquo ) is around 3 minutes on foot, and the Saint-Isidore shopping centre is approximately 11 minutes by car. The Allianz Riviera stadium is indicated at roughly 15 minutes by car, while L&rsquo Archet Hospital is noted at around 17 minutes by car (times are given for guidance and may vary). This balance&mdash peaceful hillside living with practical connections&mdash defines the appeal of the area.
The Best of the Riviera Within Reach
Nice needs little introduction: Sea, sun, culture, and a distinctly Mediterranean art de vivre. From the coastline and city life to the wider Alpes-Maritimes landscape, the region offers constant contrast&mdash beaches and promenades, valleys and hilltop villages, and the peaks of the Mercantour beyond. In Bellet, you enjoy that richness from a higher perspective, returning each day to a setting that feels quietly removed.
This penthouse brings those elements together in a single, coherent lifestyle: Contemporary architecture shaped by the hillside, a refined interior specification, an outdoor space oriented for the best light of the day, and a sea view that keeps the horizon close. It is a home that feels both grounded and elevated&mdash exactly as Riviera living should.
