North of Montpellier · Saint-Gély-du-Fesc
At the foot of the Pic Saint-Loup, north of Montpellier. A maison devoted to the large garden properties of Saint-Gély-du-Fesc, between garrigue and the art of living.
To entrust a villa in Saint-Gély-du-Fesc is to entrust far more than a rental property: a family estate, often a large home with a garden one wishes to preserve. Le 17ème Parallèle looks after and manages it as a first-rank asset, with an intimate knowledge of this community north of Montpellier.
Saint-Gély-du-Fesc ranks among the most sought-after family communities north of Montpellier, set at the foot of the Pic Saint-Loup. Here, the garrigue, space and the southern art of living define daily life: large homes with gardens, open onto nature, only minutes from the city by the RD986. It is a lively, well-equipped commune, favoured by families and demanding owners for its rare balance of greenery, comfort and proximity.
We work across the whole commune, from the upkeep of a principal residence to the private rental management of a large home made available a few weeks a year. In every case the logic remains the same: to preserve the property, its value and the peace of mind of its owner, with a transparent commission charged only on the revenue generated and no fixed fee.
The commune owes its reputation to its setting. Backing onto the garrigue and the Pic Saint-Loup, it offers large homes with gardens, on generous plots where nature remains ever-present. The quick access via the RD986 links these addresses to the heart of Montpellier in a few minutes, without sacrificing tranquillity. Towards Saint-Clément-de-Rivière and in the direction of Grabels, the properties belong to a residential fabric designed for privacy and space, served by the amenities of a lively commune.
A property of this kind calls for management that matches it. A large home deteriorates faster than it appears to when left unoccupied: upkeep of the garden and the garrigue, brush clearance, watch over the property, maintenance of the equipment, meticulous preparation before every arrival. This is precisely where the preservation of value is decided, season after season.
The nearness of the garrigue adds its own constraints, which we know well. The statutory brush clearance, the upkeep of the grounds against summer drought, the checking of equipment after episodes of wind or rain are part of daily life for a large property at the foot of the Pic Saint-Loup. Many owners, often families away part of the year, expect their home to stay impeccable and safe without having to give it a thought. Our role is to be that discreet and reliable extension, the single point of contact who watches over the property in every season.
Our support
Continuous upkeep, gardens, pool, house teams, security and watch over periods of absence.
Discreet marketing, rigorous guest selection, contracts and inventories, in full respect of the neighbourhood.
Personalised welcome, private chef, transfers and bespoke services for your guests or for yourself.
The difference comes down to a single sentence: where generalist concierge firms handle everything from student studios to villas, chasing volume, we manage only a restricted circle of exceptional residences. In Saint-Gély-du-Fesc, that means a single point of contact who knows your home, its garden and its garrigue surroundings, hand-picked providers, and a discretion that is priceless for owners attached to their living environment.
This asset-management approach shows in every decision. We do not seek to fill a calendar at any cost: we protect an address, its reputation and its value over time. The selection of occupants, the rhythm of stays, the choice of the craftsmen who work in your home are all considered to spare the property and its surroundings. A family estate is not a product to be squeezed for yield; it is an asset to be maintained with constancy, and it is in that spirit that we approach every large home at the foot of the Pic Saint-Loup.
Our model. A transparent management commission, charged only on the revenue generated, with no fixed fee whatsoever. Payments are processed by a licensed provider, revenue is paid directly to you, and a confidentiality agreement frames every collaboration from the very first exchange.
