Style and comfort go hand in hand at this bright apartment in Paris’ residential 15th arrondissement. The open-plan living area is bathed in light thanks to the pair of French doors giving way to scenic Juliet balconies – the perfect spot to indulge in some people-watching over an evening glass of French wine. Cosy up on the sofa with one of the books from the shelves or gather around the dining table for an intimate soirée made from fresh produce courtesy of the local farmer’s market that takes place on Wednesday and Saturday mornings. With a desk space here too, as well as in the bedroom, you’re all set should you need to catch up on work. That said, we recommend less work and more play in the City of Light, with many of Paris’ most famous sights within easy reach of your home. Visit the emblematic Eiffel Tower (a thirty-minute walk) or stroll through nearby Montparnasse with its crêperies, and historic bistros – the Montparnasse Tower is also twenty minutes away on foot. Elsewhere the Catacombs of Paris and the Luxembourg Gardens are both a thirty-minute walk away, while Parc Georges-Brassens is a ten-minute stroll from your door.

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!
