The BARNES brand

A major player in luxury real estate and an ambassador of French 'Art de Vivre', BARNES operates in over 15 countries and 60 destinations, supporting its clients with all aspects of their lifestyle ambitions. 

Founded by Heidi Barnes and directed by its President Thibault de Saint Vincent for over 20 years, BARNES is now the leading fully integrated international firm in high-end residential real estate that offers its French and international clients comprehensive and fully personalised services through its various business lines: sales of apartments, houses and mansions, buildings, estates and châteaux, new developments and exclusive properties; as well as the rental of luxury properties and property management.

A fervent advocate of French art de vivre, BARNES also proposes a range of tailored services beyond the purchase of a primary or secondary residence, and provides consultancy services in art and wine-growing estates, as well as its expertise in the acquisition of hunting estates, horse farms and the seasonal rental of villas, yachts and chalets.

With agencies in major international cities (Paris, Brussels, Geneva, London, New York, Madrid, Barcelona, Lisbon, Los Angeles, Budapest, Athens and Miami), as well as in numerous cities in France (Bordeaux, Lyon, Lille, Nantes, Marseille, Annecy, Aix) and top holiday destinations (Deauville, Biarritz, Saint-Jean-de-Luz, Ile de Ré, Bassin d’Arcachon, Cannes, Saint-Tropez, Sanary, Corsica, Méribel, Courchevel, Megève, Chamonix, Monaco, Marrakesh, Porto Cervo, Mauritius, Koh Samui, Porto Cervo, Gstaad, Verbier and Lugano), BARNES has recently opened a new type of club-like space, the BARNES concept store, offering its customers an experience dedicated to celebration of the french art de vivre.

Beyond real estate expertise, our clients will find a diversified offer, ranging from yachting to wine estates and art.

Whether it’s a luxury apartment or charming pied-à-terre in a major international capital, in Paris, Geneva, London, New York or Miami, a sumptuous house in a big French city like Bordeaux, Lyon, Lille, Marseille or Annecy, or a premium property in one of the latest holiday hotspots in France - be it Deauville, Saint-Jean-de-Luz, Cannes or Courchevel - or in Marrakesh, Mauritius, Gstaad or Lugano, our BARNES consultants have access to a diverse range of listings to meet all of their clientèle’s needs.
