Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Located just a few minutes' walk from the River Seine and a short stroll from Notre Dame, it's fair to say this Bastille home puts you in the heart of the city. The mismatched vintage objects and artwork throughout reflect the owners' artistic sensibilities (one is a former photographer) and we were fond of the lived-in vibe of the living spaces. With stairs to the entrance and a winding staircase within the home, it's not ideal for those with limited mobility – that said, the higher position grants lovely views of the local area. And while it's unspectacular, the small terrace lets you slip away for a few minutes to yourself.
