If you're looking for a home that combines the vintage charms of Paris with a hefty dash of decadence, then this is the place for you. This Marais apartment transports you back to the 17th century with its endless mirrors, breath-taking collection of artworks and maximalist decor. It's ideal for a couple planning a getaway to the city, or perhaps a writer in need of inspiration. It might be hard to tear yourself away from the boudoir, with its free-standing bath and ornate furnishings, but you'll want to explore Rue du Temple, one of Le Marais' most prised streets. Settle into one of the cafés or bistros and watch the world go by, or saunter around the area's numerous galleries for a true flavour of the most romantic city in the world.
