RUSCINO

The Ruscino has an uncommon characteristic within Monaco’s residential landscape: it is the only residential building directly located on Quai Antoine 1er. At 14 Quai Antoine 1er, its nine levels run alongside Port Hercule, placing the apartments immediately beside the waterfront and its views over the yachts. Built in 1950, the building reflects Monaco’s post-war bourgeois architecture, with a classical façade and large panoramic openings.

Its waterfront position does not necessarily mean constant exposure to the activity of the port. The Ruscino sits slightly apart from the busiest routes, creating a distinctive relationship between residential life and the harbour. Depending on their layout, apartments may feature balconies or terraces overlooking the basin, boats and Monaco’s urban landscape. Some properties also come with parking or a cellar.

Another distinctive feature is the building’s mixed-use character, with certain units suitable for residential or professional purposes. The residence also includes a lift, concierge service and fitness room, while a video surveillance system operates within the co-ownership. The Ruscino therefore combines several characteristics rarely found together in Monaco: a residential address directly on the quayside, post-war architecture and a layout designed to accommodate different uses.
