Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Tucked along a quiet cobbled street in storied Saint-Germain-des-Prés, this apartment is full of character. High ceilings and Juliet balconies keep things bright and breezy – and with air conditioning in the bedrooms (a rarity in Paris), you’ll be comfortable even in summer. Ornate fireplaces and splashes of colour add warmth, while the choice of a cosy kitchen table or chic dining room makes meals at home feel effortless. Prefer to eat out? You’ll be spoiled for choice with bistros and wine bars on your door step. Art lovers are in for a treat, too, with both the Musée Rodin and Musée d’Orsay just a short stroll away, while the Eiffel Tower is a scenic twenty-five-minute walk along the river.
