For sale in Roucas Blanc, Marseille’s 7th arrondissement: a house with sea view and the possibility for expansion. Nestled in the heart of the highly sought-after Roucas Blanc neighborhood, this 103 sqm property enjoys a privileged setting with a soothing sea view from each of its main rooms. Set on a large, tree-filled 1,286 sqm plot, it benefits from four exposures, ensuring exceptional natural light throughout the day.

Roucas Blanc is one of Marseille’s most coveted residential addresses, occupying the hillside slopes of the 7th arrondissement between the Corniche Kennedy and the Parc du Pharo. The neighborhood is defined by large bourgeois villas set within generous plots, mature gardens, and consistent sea orientation. It sits apart from the density of central Marseille, offering a quieter residential character while remaining firmly within the city. The views across the Mediterranean toward the Frioul archipelago are a constant presence from the upper streets.
Daily life here draws on the 7th arrondissement’s strong dining and market offer. The Marché du Prado and the restaurants along the Corniche, including Péron and L’Épuisette, are within a short drive. The Plage des Catalans and Plage du Prophète are the nearest beaches. The Vieux-Port is approximately ten minutes by car.
Marseille-Provence Airport is roughly 30 kilometres from the 7th arrondissement, accessible in around 30 minutes by car. Marseille Saint-Charles station, the city’s main rail hub, is served by TGV with direct connections to Paris in approximately three hours, Lyon in under two hours, and Nice in two and a half hours. The station is reachable from Roucas Blanc in around 15 minutes by car.
