Since 2015, Novélia Résidences has designed and built residential developments in the French Alps, with recognised expertise in the Dauphiné area. From building plots to apartment buildings, our small team follows every project from the first sketch to the handover of the keys.

Our new homes are built to the latest French environmental standard (RE 2020) and sold off-plan (VEFA), a scheme that protects buyers with a completion guarantee and ten-year structural insurance. Novélia Résidences is a member of FPI Alpes, the regional federation of property developers.
