An ardent defender of the French art of living, BARNES also offers a range of made-to-measure services and, in addition to the acquisition of a primary or secondary residence, provides advice on art and wine estates, as well as expertise in the acquisition of hunting estates and stud farms, and the seasonal rental of villas, yachts and chalets.

“Wealthy buyers looking for houses, apartments, seaside villas or country estates have the world as their playground. It's up to us to accompany them and offer them a comprehensive service - going beyond the mere search for a property - including legal and tax advice, personalized support, and a range of renovation and decoration services - in one or other of their preferred cities or regions.
Globalization has made its way, including in real estate”.
