The tiny city-state of Monaco is expanding – at least in terms of the choice of luxury homes on offer in this prestigious principality by the Mediterranean Sea. There are now more new residential schemes being constructed here than ever before and, in a buoyant market that remained relatively stable during the pandemic, we are seeing demand from a new kind of buyer.
With eyes firmly focused on new build, these buyers want to live in a modern building that offers exclusive services. Below are five developments that will be completing over the coming years.
Mareterra

The most requested new development is the eagerly anticipated Mareterra land extension. This exciting project will have 110 apartments and 10 luxury villas, some of which will be front line to the sea with uninterrupted views over the Mediterranean.
