Montpellier, one of France’s fastest growing cities and the place that 65% of all French people who relocate to if they had the chance. As the historic old town can no longer grow, so the development has surged forwards in all directions away from the town centre.

The apartments are generously proportioned and have either large balconies or vast terraces with panoramic views down towards the water or off towards the city.

A long-term programme of renovation and innovation – including a sleek new tramway, Ricardo Bofill’s postmodern Antigone quarter by the river Lez, and the Corum concert and conference complex – has helped to make Montpellier France’s fastest-growing city. Located just a few miles inland from the sea, it has been transformed from a sleepy university city into the powerhouse of Mediterranean France – and the new darling of the international party set. But it’s not all about technology and transformation: Montpellier is an ancient academic city with handsome historic buildings, abundant gardens and an impressively vast central square.
