Many celebrities, such as Elton John and Brigitte Bardot, have homes on the Cote d’Azur. Officially, the Côte d’Azur is home to 163 nationalities with 83,962 foreign residents, although estimates of the number of non-French nationals living in the area are often much higher.
The area was frequented by the likes of Coco Chanel, David Niven, Isadora Duncan, F Scott Fitzgerald, Aldous Huxley, Henri Matisse and Pablo Picasso, and now may be one of the world’s best places to live?

More recently with Cote d’Azur properties: Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie just can’t get enough of the French Riviera and have made Chateau Miraval their home there. Johnny Depp lives with his long-term partner Vanessa Paradis and the couple’s two children in a $2 million villa in the village of Plan-de-la-Tour. Bono owns a property on the beachfront in Eze-sur-mer. Tina Turner owns a property inside the gated community of Mont Vinaigrier’s Le Castellet at Villefranche-sur-Mer. A short drive away in the hills above Beaulieu Sur-Mer and Villefranche is the world-class home of Bill Gates purchased for over $76m.
