Step into an easy Cannes rhythm: open the doors, let the south‑west sun in, and drift out to a generous 17.63 m² balcony for aperitifs and late-gold evenings. Set on the 1st floor, this thoughtfully designed 45.11 m² one-bedroom apartment pairs a bright living space with a calm bedroom and a well-appointed shower room. The residence is secure and landscaped around an elegant central pool—an oasis feel, moments from the energy of Rue d’Antibes and the Croisette.

A Cannes Address That Feels Like a Breath of Calm
Some places instantly shift your pace. You arrive, pass through a secure entrance, and the city&rsquo s sparkle softens into something greener, quieter, more residential&mdash yet still undeniably Cannes. Set in the sought-after Californie&ndash Montfleury area, this 1st-floor one-bedroom apartment offers the kind of Riviera balance that is so hard to achieve: a peaceful, landscaped setting built around leisure and light, with the shops, beaches, and iconic seafront atmosphere of Cannes within easy reach.
Inside, 45.11 m² of carefully planned living space is designed for everyday ease&mdash coming home after a morning market, working remotely between swims, or enjoying long weekends that begin at the station and end on your balcony as the sun drops toward the west. With a south-west orientation and a substantial 17.63 m² balcony, the apartment leans into the outdoors, turning simple moments&mdash coffee, reading, a shared meal&mdash into a lifestyle.
Light-Led Interiors, Designed to Flow
The layout welcomes you with a defined entrance hall (4.56 m² ), a practical threshold that helps the home feel composed and private. From here, circulation is effortless: a short inner hallway (1.54 m² ) connects the spaces without wasting a single corner, keeping the apartment tidy, legible, and easy to live in.
At the heart of the home, the living area with kitchen (22.40 m² ) stretches out in a long, elegant line&mdash ideal for modern living where cooking, dining, and relaxing blend naturally. Generous glazing draws the daylight deep into the room, and the south-west exposure delivers that coveted Riviera warmth later in the day, when you most want it. Whether you imagine a compact dining table for friends, a sofa facing the balcony doors, or a calm work nook by the light, the proportions support a variety of lifestyles without ever feeling overcomplicated.
The kitchen is conceived as part of the main living space&mdash open and social&mdash so conversation continues while dinner is prepared. The plan indicates dedicated locations for key appliances, keeping the room organised and functional. Throughout the apartment, the finishes are selected with a clean, contemporary sensibility: large-format 80x80 tiling in all rooms, and powder-coated aluminium joinery for a crisp, modern look.
A Bedroom That Prioritises Rest
The bedroom (11.36 m² ) is set apart from the living space, creating a genuine sense of retreat. Its dimensions (approximately 3.12 x 3.95 m) allow for comfortable sleeping arrangements and everyday storage, supporting a home that works as well for extended stays as it does for a refined pied-à -terre.
Practicality is built into the overall surface calculation (which includes cupboards), reinforcing the apartment&rsquo s focus on uncluttered living&mdash everything has its place, so the rooms can stay serene.
Refined Bathroom Details for Daily Comfort
The shower room (5.25 m² ) is designed to feel polished and easy from the first use. Bathrooms and shower rooms in the residence are finished with full-height wall tiling and include a vanity unit, mirror, and integrated lighting&mdash details that bring a hotel-like clarity to your morning routine. The specifications also include thermostatic fittings, a shower column, a shower screen, and a heated towel rail, alongside a wall-mounted Wc for a streamlined finish.
Comfort extends beyond aesthetics. Individual reversible air-conditioning is provided, supporting the apartment across seasons&mdash from warm summer afternoons to cooler winter evenings on the coast.
A Balcony Made for Riviera Living
This is where the apartment truly changes gear. The balcony offers 17.63 m² of outdoor space&mdash an impressive extension of the interior&mdash and its proportions (approximately 2.60 x 6.78 m) invite real use rather than occasional decoration. Set up a dining table for unhurried lunches, create a lounge corner for evening conversation, or simply keep it open and airy so the light and breeze become part of the home.
With the apartment oriented south-west, the balcony is particularly well-suited to that late-day Cannes ritual: the moment the sun begins to soften, the air turns honeyed, and the city feels like it&rsquo s preparing for an evening out. It&Rsquo S a space to slow down&mdash barefoot, book in hand, or sharing a drink before heading toward the seafront.
A Contemporary Residence Wrapped in Gardens
The residence is envisioned as a green refuge within the city. Landscaped gardens, designed by a specialist landscape architect, create a park-like setting that follows the natural contours of the site. Modern architecture in light tones, with clean lines and deep balconies, is paired with glass balustrades that welcome daylight into the apartments and keep the overall feel bright and calming.
At the centre, an elegant swimming pool with a landscaped beach area becomes the signature shared amenity&mdash more than a visual highlight, it&rsquo s a daily pleasure. Swim a few lengths to reset the mind, read in the shade, or enjoy the simple luxury of a poolside pause without leaving home.
Security is thoughtfully integrated: the residence is fully enclosed and secured, with controlled access via videophone and contactless badge system. The apartment&rsquo s entrance door is specified as reinforced with a certified 3-point locking system, supporting peace of mind whether the property is used year-round or as a lock-up-and-leave base.
Practical living is also considered at the scale of the building, with underground parking and dedicated areas for two-wheelers and bicycles&mdash an understated but valuable advantage in Cannes, where you may choose to walk, cycle, or simply keep the city close without relying on the car every day.
Cannes on Foot: Shops, Markets, Beaches, and Culture
The apartment sits in a location that makes everyday Cannes feel effortless. In a matter of minutes on foot, you can reach the shopping energy of Rue d&rsquo Antibes, the city&rsquo s essential thoroughfare, as well as the legendary Croisette with its beaches and seafront rhythm. When you want the city&rsquo s cultural side, the Palais des Festivals lies around 1.3 km away&mdash close enough to enjoy the atmosphere during major events, yet far enough for home to remain calm.
Daily conveniences are equally close: a mini-market is approximately 230 m away, with city-centre shops and services around 700 m. For local colour, nearby markets such as Gambetta (about 700 m) and Forville (about 1.4 km) shape an easy Mediterranean routine&mdash fresh produce, flowers, and the kind of small conversations that quickly make a place feel like yours.
Green space and leisure sit naturally in the neighbourhood&rsquo s character. Montfleury Park&mdash known for its garden setting and facilities&mdash is around 1 km away, while beaches along the Croisette are also within roughly a kilometre, inviting spontaneous swims and sunset walks.
Connected for Weekends, Seasons, and International Life
Cannes is more than a destination it&rsquo s a well-connected base for the Riviera and beyond. The train station is approximately 800 m away, linking you swiftly to nearby coastal towns and major cities. Nice Cô te d&rsquo Azur International Airport is reachable in roughly 25 km, supporting seamless arrivals for international owners and guests.
And when you want to widen the horizon, the Cô te d&rsquo Azur delivers in every direction: island trips from the coast, inland escapes toward Grasse and Mougins, and even winter days in the Southern Alps when the season turns cooler. This is a home designed to make all of that feel easy&mdash returning, recharging, and stepping back out whenever the mood strikes.
