Le Maeterlinck, at 11 boulevard Maurice Maeterlinck, is one of the large balcony developments of the Basse Corniche: 134 lots, a sea view from almost every apartment, and price levels among the highest in the area. Not to be confused with Le Palais Maeterlinck, at number 30 on the same boulevard — two distinct addresses and two different markets.

Le Maeterlinck in brief
The address
Boulevard Maurice Maeterlinck runs along the sea east of Cap de Nice, between Nice and Villefranche. Number 11 sits on the lower part of the boulevard, directly above the shore. The port of Nice is about ten minutes away by car; there are neither local shops nor heavy transport.
A confusion worth clearing up
Three neighbouring addresses carry very similar names: Le Maeterlinck at number 11, Le Palais Maeterlinck at number 30, and the Le Cap de Nice development at numbers 31-33. They share neither size, nor building stock, nor price levels. A valuation resting on the sales of the wrong address is wrong from the outset.
What you are buying here
A sea view and outdoor space, in a scheme large enough for supply to exist. The national register of owners’ associations records 134 lots for a building constructed between 1949 and 1974 — the generation of stepped buildings on the Basse Corniche.
What sort of apartment will you find at Le Maeterlinck?
Supply runs from the studio and one-bedroom apartment of around forty square metres to the large apartment of 100 m² and more. Almost every lot published below was sold with two ancillary lots, which points to a parking ratio unusual for the area.
What makes the price: how frontal the view is, the floor, the area of outdoor space and the state of renovation. The gaps observed between two lots of comparable size commonly exceed a factor of two.
The most recent published sales at Le Maeterlinck
Here are the three most recent sales published for this address in the official property transaction database.
- May 2026 — €1,215,000, 100 m², 3 main rooms, 2 ancillary lots sold with it, i.e. €12,150/m².
- March 2026 — €880,000, 88 m², 3 main rooms, 2 ancillary lots sold with it, i.e. €10,000/m².
- February 2025 — €575,246, 41 m², 1 main room, 2 ancillary lots sold with it, i.e. €14,006/m².
These figures come from the French public property transaction database (Demandes de valeurs foncières, published by the tax authority), which is fed by notarial deeds and released several months in arrears. The amount shown is the price stated in the deed, before notary fees and transfer duties: depending on whether the agency’s commission was payable by the seller or the buyer, it may or may not be included.
They tell you nothing about the floor, the aspect, the view, the condition of the property or the quality of any renovation. The price also covers the whole transaction: where a garage, a cellar or a maid’s room was sold with the apartment, the price per square metre shown is mechanically inflated — which is why we state the number of ancillary lots. We exclude transactions whose price per square metre falls plainly outside the market (dismemberment of ownership, sales between related parties).
Two apartments of identical size in the same building can change hands at very different prices. These sales give an order of magnitude; they are not a valuation. To find out what a specific property is worth, ask us for a valuation.
What sets the price of an apartment at Le Maeterlinck
Number 11 boulevard Maeterlinck trades at high levels, consistent with a position above the sea and the restricted supply in the area. Beware of hasty comparisons: Mont Boron averages have no value here.

Frequently asked questions about Le Maeterlinck
Is this the same as Le Palais Maeterlinck?
No. Le Palais Maeterlinck is at 30 boulevard Maurice Maeterlinck: eighteen apartments on an estate with a private beach and a funicular. Le Maeterlinck, at number 11, is a development of 134 lots. The two markets have nothing in common.
Is there parking?
The published mutations show, for most lots, two ancillary lots sold with the apartment. That is a substantial element of value on this boulevard, to be checked in the co-ownership rules for each lot.
Is the area workable day to day?
It is a residential holiday quarter: no shops within walking distance, bus service only, significant changes in level. In exchange, the view and the quiet. That is the basic trade-off to accept on the Basse Corniche.
What is my apartment at 11 boulevard Maeterlinck worth?
View and floor dominate the value. We carry out a free and confidential valuation, on site, based on the sales actually recorded in the development — not on those of the neighbouring addresses.
