Nigel Bywater
Luxury property advisor — Cap d'Antibes & the French Riviera, with Engel & Völkers.

About Nigel
A trusted hand on the Riviera.
For more than two decades, Nigel Bywater has guided international buyers and sellers through the most discreet addresses on the French Riviera. His practice is built on long-standing relationships, deep local knowledge, and a consultative approach that prizes clarity over haste.
Based on the Cap d'Antibes — perhaps the most coveted peninsula on the Côte d'Azur — Nigel works as a property advisor with Engel & Völkers, offering a curated view of the market and the privacy his clients expect.
Off duty, you'll find him on one of the region's storied golf courses; an enthusiast of the slower side of Riviera life, and a quiet ambassador for everything it has to offer.
Nigel works with international clients and is glad to assist personally in English or French.
