A stone's throw from the iconic Bastille, this charming apartment offers effortless Parisian style. Housed within a beautiful building showcasing typical Haussmannian architecture, you can expect the quintessential big windows, stone facade, and running balcony synonymous with the style. Speaking of the balcony, this is the perfect spot to enjoy the cool breeze in the morning with a cup of coffee in hand, and it offers gorgeous views of the River Seine. Being so centrally located, you really do have your pick of popular Paris districts. The Opéra Bastille is close by, where theatre buffs can take a backstage tour and catch a show in the evenings. This area truly is a music lover's paradise, offering an array of glitzy jazz clubs. Head out for the evening to enjoy the blues and a few cocktails. If you're leaning more towards a night in, however, you won't be disappointed. The American-style kitchen is well-equipped for whipping up all of your favourite foods, which can be enjoyed around the spacious dining table. Post-dinner, share a bottle of wine on the sofa and enjoy the sight of the sun setting over the most romantic city in the world.
