Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
This apartment can be found on a quiet street in Montparnasse. It’s slightly removed from the hustle and bustle of central Paris, but the nearest Metro station is only eight minutes away, so you can easily see the sights. There are shops, bakeries, and restaurants nearby, and you’ll have a well-equipped kitchen to cook in. The apartment is simple in style, a calm space to call home. Two living spaces mean there’s plenty of room for relaxing during the day, though both are equipped with sofa beds and serve as sleeping spaces at night.

Local guide
About Montparnasse & Catacombs
This part of town is mostly residential but works well as a base for exploring the charms of the nearby 6th and the 7th arrondissements. It was famously home to a community of prominent twentieth-century artists and intellectuals - Simone de Beauvoir, Jean-Paul Sartre, Max Ernst and Pablo Picasso to name a few. Parc Montsouris is one of the city's most colourful public spaces and well worth seeking out. Be sure to check out the Roman Catacombs too if you're of the morbid disposition - stacks of skulls and bones await you!
