Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
A duplex apartment with heaps of lived-in charm, your host's collection of objects from all over the world makes it a unique addition to the collection. Although some of the amenities, particularly in the kitchen, are slightly dated, it makes up for it with two leafy and welcoming outdoor spaces with seating and fantastic views. This tranquil home has a location to match – it's a little out of the way but the neighbourhood is filled with quaint streets and independent businesses, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a more authentic Parisian experience.

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!
