Located in the residential neighbourhood of Le Dramont, this brand-new Saint-Raphaël property for sale occupies a fantastic plot just 150m from the sandy Camp Long Beach (sometimes called Tiki Beach after its restaurant).

Location

Situated between Cannes and Saint-Tropez and set against a dramatic backdrop of red mountains, the commune of Saint-Raphaël has 36km of coastline bordering the azure waters of the Mediterranean sea. It’s a dynamic area and each neighbourhood has its own identity.

There are 30 beaches where you can bask in the favourable Mediterranean climate, go sailing or even deep-sea diving. If you can tear yourself away from the beach, there is plenty to enjoy further inland such as a round of golf with a view at one of Saint-Raphaël’s three golf courses, exploring the historic old town or visiting the casino.
