The Palais Miramar is a high-end residence located on the main axis of the Mont Boron district. Its elevated position offers you a magnificent view of the city and the sea. It also promises incredible sunsets thanks to its ideal orientation.
The building known as Palais Miramar was once renamed Villa Sardou, then Villa Miramar, and later became a hotel for travelers called Hôtel Miramar.
Resting on a spacious terrace supported by stone arches, the main building of the Palais Miramar comprises four habitable floors. The upscale apartments benefit from high ceilings, sun-facing balconies, and all the charm of the Belle Époque.
The Count of Valbranca, then owner of the site, wanted to build a villa designed by architect S.M. Biasini, but only the large retaining wall and an annex building were completed. In 1911, the Count of Valbranca had a villa constructed on the terrace, named Palais Miramar, by architect François Aubert. Around 1914, the property was purchased by Auguste Gurnee Coë, who, upon his death in 1921, donated it to the local authority, which in turn sold it to two Alsatian hoteliers, the Heim brothers, who expanded it and transformed it into the Hôtel Miramar. Advertisements notably promoted its open-air restaurant. In 1947, the establishment was sold to a real estate company that added extra floors and converted it into apartments.
The Mont Boron district has long been a highly sought-after area, particularly due to its authenticity, its green surroundings, and its peaceful atmosphere. Life in the neighborhood is very calm and increasingly attracts families. The proximity to the city center and the lively Port district makes it a popular choice for investors looking for a rental property, or for those seeking to invest in a second home or a pied-à-terre in an idyllic setting.
