"With prices readjusted and a replenished offering of available properties, yet still surpassed by demand, our real estate market is much more finely regulated. The most sought-after property is still the 2-bedroomed apartment prolonged by a terrace, offering quality appointments in a residence with a lift, in the town centre, to ensure a "walk-everywhere" lifestyle : to the beaches, shops, station..."
Saint-Raphaël, a protected market
Radia Amar - 10 March 2025
A privileged Mediterranean enclave, Saint-Raphaël proposes many assets for a pleasant lifestyle all year round. Today's inventory…
On the seafront in Le Var, Saint-Raphae¨l is cradled between the Massif de l’Este´rel and the Gulf of Fre´jus. A town with a past, already inhabited since the Age of Antiquity, Saint-Raphae¨l has evolved over the centuries, preserving its heritage while pursuing modern development. Numerous sought-after neighbourhoods offer outstanding settings for living, combining closeness to the sea, a protected natural environment, security, urban amenities, a delightful climate year-round... An ideal address for acquiring a high-end property. With three agencies in Saint-Raphae¨l - Town Centre, Shoreline and Golf-courses -, Canat & Warton is exclusively dedicated to sales of properties selected for their quality appointments and prized locations. In his role as an experienced negotiator with the Canat & Warton Littoral agency, Guillaume Pouron has embarked upon the year 2025 with enthusiasm. "Clients now seem determined to complete their plans for acquisition and/or sale." Following excessive activity in post-Covid years, the market in Saint-Raphae¨l has recovered its cruising speed.
For this type of property, the Canat & Warton agency has a waiting list of qualified buyers, and it is not rare that transactions are completed rapidly without a high number of visits. "This type of apartment is mainly sought-after by clients already living in this sector for 20 years. Wanting to sell a house that has become too large for their use, they entrust us with their double projects : selling a villa in the neighbourhoods of Valescure, Beaurivage-Notre Dame Les Plaines, Boulouris, Le Dramont- Agay-Le Trayas, or La Tour de Mare in Fre´jus, and finding a high-end apartment near amenities, between the sea and railway line." As an example of properties presented by Canat & Warton, Guillaume Pouron mentions a villa with five main rooms and a pool, close to the sea and centre, in the sought-after neighbourhood of Boulouris. Nestling in natural greenery, this light and airy house in irreproachable condition is currently in the sales process, at a price around 1.3 million euros.
