In the city garden tradition of Menton, “Hambury Palace” breathes with its luxuriant park designed with great care around a majestic perspective lined with palm trees.
This Italian garden is the soul of the residence with its stone paved alleys which wind their way through an arrangement of plants offering harmony of colour and perfume.
As an invitation to contemplation, the eyes are drawn to a display of mimosa, an expanse of grass, a coppice of acacia....
In the same way as a Palladian villa, the entrance is highlighted with a fountain and, at the heart of the residence there is a vast wooded open-air terrace which offers the unusual atmosphere of a hanging garden, a veritable watchtower over the Mediterranean...
As a tribute to the site, the architects have designed a uniquely elegant residence inspired by the world of the sea.
Opposite the continuous ballet of boats berthing at Garavan marina, the residence imposes its majestic and airy silhouette.
The facades, clad with light-coloured stones on their lower parts, are matched by a series of terraces and balconies the contours of which reflect the movements of the waves....
The vertical lines appear to launch an assault on the skies. Everything here is refinement at the service of a seaside way of life which is to be found nowhere else...
The facilities are of a very high standard, in the same way as the materials chosen: oak parquet, stoneware floor tiles, marble and porcelain in the bathrooms, reversible air-conditioning in the living areas... Your peace of mind is guaranteed by the permanent presence of a caretaker, in the same way as in a large hotel.
The interior decoration is of your own choosing and allows you to design your apartment on the basis of your own tastes.
Whether you are “Designer”, “Traditional” or “Fashion”, all the styles are presented to you in our showroom in Nice which plays host to the largest range of some of the very best brands.
Between the sea and the mountains, Menton shines brightly alongside the Italian border. Ideally situated, the town is served by the A8 motorway which provides
access to Nice-Côte-d’Azur International Airport with international flights for all of Europe (England, Holland, Germany, Belgium, etc.).
Two railway stations, one in the town centre and one in Garavan, offer TGV access to Paris and international trains to Italy.
Dearly loved by Empress Eugenie, praised by Franz Liszt and adulated by Jean Cocteau, Menton offers a range of southern colours caressed by generous sunlight all the year round.
Between steep staircases and hidden streets, the historic heart of the town is centred around the wonderful Baroque Basilica of Saint-Michel.
In the same way as a theatre facing the sea, Menton offers many architectural gems and exuberant gardens.
Charming, lively and well-preserved, the town has several museums and major artistic institutions and vibrates with an intense cultural life...
In 1867, an English aristocrat on holiday on the French Riviera, Sir Hambury fell under the spell of the region’s charm to such an extent that he undertook to create a botanical garden at Cap Mortola, near Ventimiglia. With great patience, he extended his park, planting trees and flowers from the four corners of the world.
These exotic plants flourished so much in this exceptional climate that the first few acres of land eventually became the 18 hectares of an extraordinary botanical garden.
Between Monte-Carlo and the Italian Riviera, the foothills of the Alps plunge into the turquoise waters of the Mediterranean...
This magical setting which so fascinated the first English aristocrats still works today thanks to the outstanding natural landscapes and the light which highlights Menton’s fabulous surroundings.
A City of Art and History, the town also knows how to combine luxury with charm in its fashionable boutiques and typical restaurants.
In terms of prestige, the Casino and the Theatre, established in the historic haven of the Palais de l’Europe, provide this town, favoured by destiny, with a note of distinction.
For shopping, Menton offers the opportunity to take advantage of the splendours of its illustrious neighbours, Monaco, Nice and... San Remo.
