Parc Montretout, Residential estate in Saint-Cloud, France
Parc Montretout is a residential estate in Saint-Cloud featuring grand villas set on elevated terrain above the Seine. Properties within this gated community sit on spacious lots, with the elevated position affording views toward Paris and the river below.
The estate developed during the 19th century and was partly acquired under Napoleon III's reign. During World War II, occupying forces used several of its residences before the area returned to private residential use afterward.
The estate's name refers to its position on a hilltop offering views across the landscape. The tree-lined streets and grand villas that line them shape how residents and visitors experience the space today.
The location is easily reached from Paris by train, with lines L and U providing direct connections. Note that this is a private, gated residential community, so public access is limited to exterior views from the surrounding streets.
The minimum plot size of approximately 1000 square meters (about 10,800 square feet) was unusually generous for its era and reflects an early desire for exclusive residential planning. This standard remains in place today, shaping how the community has developed and maintained its character.
