French Riviera/€150,000-€400,000: A small residence with sea views near Cannes on the French Riviera is selling from plans through the Irish agent of CB French Property.

When finished in 2005, Le Belvedere will have 14 one, two and three-bedroom apartments on three floors, with sea views from the first floor upwards. Prices start at €150,000 for one-bedroom apartments, €250,000 for two-bedroom apartments and €340,000 for three-bedroom apartments. A top floor three-bedroom penthouse is priced at €400,000. Le Belvedere is sited near Cannes La Bocca, overlooking the beaches and the Mandelieu golf course. The apartment block will be surrounded by green space, with Cannes and Mandelieu Napoule visible because of its hilltop location.

The price includes bathroom fittings and floor and wall tiling, with electric rolling shutters on most windows. No kitchen - this will cost up to €15,000 depending on choice. A basement garage can be bought for an additional €15,000. For more information see the company's website at www.cb-french-property-consultancy.com.
