Mareterra Anse du Portier | Purchase new apartment monaco

A new district 

The Mareterra project, also named Anse du Portier, is a new waterfront eco-district located in Monaco. The promenade, along the coast from the new port to the Grimaldi forum, is a new opportunity to reconnect with the sea while creating a new passage to Larvotto beach.

The name 'Mareterra' is inspired by two complementary elements, the Sea and the Land, which define this project. It represents a new set of residential, cultural and recreational spaces. It offers investors a collection of stylish apartments, townhouses, penthouses, as well as a limited number of villas.

This district, largely pedestrian, will be completed by shops, green spaces with a large lush park, leisure areas, underground parking and a port. The plan of the district was designed to integrate with the existing coastline and offer Monegasques new opportunities for leisure and culture.

Ports have always been the nerve center in the Mediterranean. This small 15-ring marina surrounded by an esplanade of excellent shops and restaurants will perfectly reflect its spirit: that of a warm place dedicated to conviviality and relaxation.

The new face of Monaco

The offshore extension currently under development has benefited from a design that highlights eco labels. This construction site with exceptional measures, in addition to expanding the national territory with, for example, the Le Renzo building which also has an ecological certification, will offer apartments with exceptional dimensions. Able to go up to more than 1000 m2, these properties have a southern exposure and an impregnable sea view. This project, unique in the world, lays the foundations for work aimed at further modernizing the country. These hectares reclaimed from the sea will forever change the organization of our city-state. Firstly, thanks to new pedestrian spaces that will allow residents to enjoy the sea and the new green spaces. Subsequently, these new properties will have a definite impact on the Monegasque real estate market.

Renowned architects

The project was designed by a team of internationally renowned designers, architects, engineers and environmental experts, all of whom wish to be in perfect harmony with the natural environment, taking into account the ecology of the land and ocean.
The two architectural firms; Valode & Pistre Architects and Renzo Piano Building Workshop are the main designers of the Monaco extension.

Founded in 1980, Valode & Pistre Architects is one of the most renowned architecture firms in France. Its founders, Denis Valode and Jean Pistre, are passionate about creating new environments that celebrate both natural and man-made elements.

Founded by architect Renzo Piano, the architectural firm Renzo Piano Building Workshop is widely recognized around the world. Each of his projects is a specific response to the particularity of a place, resulting in a creative solution encompassing architecture, art, engineering and technology.

But also, “Four Spears”, a major work by Alexander Calder, a great master of modern sculpture, will live at the heart of the extension. Made of riveted sheet steel, it was acquired by Prince Rainier and Princess Grace of Monaco in 1966. This work forms a strong link between the art of men and that of nature.

Residences and dwellings

In total, the residences of the project include 110 apartments and 10 villas, of which 6 villas will face the sea.

The "Le Renzo" residence is located at the far west of the district and overlooks the port and the Mareterra shopping square. The apartments are bright and airy.
“Les Jardins d’Eau” feature voluminous apartments and spacious balconies inviting residents to make the most of outdoor living.
Plus, residents of these apartments will also enjoy a selection of amenities such as spas, swimming pools, fitness center, wine cellars, hair salons and massage parlours.

The Villas Mareterra are the new generation of traditional Belle Epoque residences in Monaco. These modern villas have large volumes and perfectly bring together indoor and outdoor living spaces. They are limited in number and each unique in its architecture.

The Mareterra Townhouses are hidden in a green environment and covered with the same lush vegetation as the rest of Mareterra. Each of these townhouses has an interior patio, offering residents the chance to admire the beauty of the surrounding nature from the comfort of their own home.

Recreational green spaces

At the heart of Mareterra, green spaces will be designed to accommodate exotic vegetation with majestic trees, shrubs and flower bushes. Green spaces, pleasant and shaded, will allow residents to come and meditate and recharge their batteries in nature.

The landscaped green spaces are designed to encourage wildlife to flourish and for this, insect hotels and birdhouses will be developed. Mareterra will aim to become one with nature.

Nature friendly

The Mareterra district has state-of-the-art green technology to put sustainable development at the heart of Monaco's concerns. To be in line with the objective set by Prince Albert II, aimed at guaranteeing the Principality's carbon neutrality by 2050, This includes 4,500 square meters of solar panels, rainwater recovery systems ensuring 50% reuse, and heat pumps. In the Mareterra eco-district, an average of 80% of the heating will be generated by renewable energies.

Also, 4 parking spaces will be allocated to the MOBEE club, Monaco's car-sharing service.

Sustainable construction

Mareterra's sustainable construction process is subject to various ecological certifications in order to guarantee the protection of the existing landscape. The implementation of a strict protocol aims to preserve the marine fauna and flora around the site. This minimizes the impact of construction on the environment. The protocol notably includes the protection of “Posidonia Oceanica”, a protected species of seagrass on nearly 510 square meters.
