Château Périgord at a glance
Château Périgord is a pair of residential towers, Château Périgord I and Château Périgord II, in the La Rousse-Saint Roman district, in the north-east of Monaco, at the edge of Beausoleil and Roquebrune-Cap-Martin. The complex stands at Lacets Saint-Léon, near the Larvotto beaches and the Monte-Carlo Country Club.
Sources differ on the height and on the year of tower II, so check the figures you need with the syndic or the notary before a purchase.
Apartments and layouts
The towers offer studios up to family-sized penthouses, and many apartments open onto wraparound balconies. The views depend on the orientation and the floor: the sea on the south side, the mountains or the city on the other sides. The towers rise above the neighbouring buildings of La Rousse, so the upper floors carry the panoramic outlook.
Studios suit a pied-à-terre or a first purchase in the Principality, while the larger apartments with several bedrooms and wraparound balconies suit families. Tower I and tower II are twins, so a buyer compares apartments by floor, orientation and renovation rather than by tower. Ask for the exact exposure of the apartment, because a south-facing living room with a large balcony changes the daily use of the apartment as much as the view.
The apartments date from the early 1970s. Listings of the complex often describe renovated apartments, and the quality of the renovation weighs on the price as much as the floor and the view.
Prices at Château Périgord
Apartments for sale
A recent listing gives a reference. A renovated 2-bedroom apartment of 126 m² with a terrace in Château Périgord II is listed at €8,950,000, or about €71,000 per m² (our calculation). The table places it among the district averages.
The listing stands about 39% above the La Rousse average and at the level of Larvotto. This gap reflects a full renovation, the terrace and the floor, so compare a renovated apartment with other renovated apartments rather than with the district average. Our guide to the price per sqm in Monaco details these values district by district.

Château Périgord compared with other towers of Monaco
Monaco builds upwards because land is scarce. The towers of La Rousse and Monte-Carlo share the same logic: many apartments on a small footprint, with views over the sea. The table, drawn from the Monaco Properties list of skyscrapers, places Château Périgord among its neighbours.
Château Périgord belongs to the generation of towers of the 1960s and 1970s, which offer larger volumes and lower prices per m² than recent residences, in exchange for a renovation to plan.
The table also shows a contrast within La Rousse-Saint Roman. Odeon Tower dates from 2015 and offers recent services at a different price level, while Château Périgord, L'Annonciade and Parc Saint Roman belong to the generation of the 1970s and 1980s. A buyer who wants a renovated apartment in an established tower looks at Château Périgord, and a buyer who wants a new building looks at the recent residences of the district, such as Villa Ariane on Boulevard d'Italie.
What a 736-apartment co-ownership means for you
With about 736 apartments, 329 cellars and 452 garages across two towers, Château Périgord functions like a small village. This size brings services, such as the concierge and the guard, and a shared budget that spreads the cost of maintenance across many owners. It also brings a heavier governance, with general assemblies, works voted by many co-owners and service charges that follow the size of the buildings.
