A highlight of this apartment is the balcony which runs the entire length of the home and offers views over the rooftops of Paris. There are plenty of books in this two-storey apartment’s library area to keep you entertained, too. The kitchen, we’d say, is quite compact, but it has everything you need and there’s a variety of eateries in the vicinity. If you’re looking for some green space, then you’re in luck – there are several parks nearby, including Parc Monceau and Square des Batignolles. One of the city’s most iconic landmarks, the Arc de Triomphe, is also within walking distance or a short ride away.
