The Luxembourg Gardens are among Parisians’ favorite green spaces. The gardens themselves are magnificent to behold with spacious lawns, alleys of shady trees, colorful flower beds and sparkling fountains. Do as the Parisians: jog, take a brisk walk, play tennis, take your children to the playground or just pull up a chair and enjoy the views. Within easy walking distance are the Left Bank’s celebrated neighborhoods such as the Latin Quarter and St-Germain-des-Prés, some of the city’s most historic and lively areas.
Just steps from the Luxembourg Gardens, this one-bedroom apartment is set in an 18th-century building on the first floor with stair access (see note below). Overlooking a lovely courtyard garden with trees and a variety of flowering shrubs and plants, it is peaceful and quiet. And at 650 square feet, it is spacious by Paris standards. Recently renovated, the apartment is light and bright and features tall windows with graceful curtains, pastel walls, painted wood beamed ceilings and wood parquet floors. Stylish contemporary decor includes handsome furnishings and artful lighting. Entry is into the living-dining room with a richly-colored sofa and chaise longue grouped around a coffee table by the decorative fireplace. Behind is a long wood desk area with ample light and internet access. In the corner by the windows a round wood table and chairs creates an intimate dining area for 4 people. To the right of the entry is the well-equipped galley kitchen with sleek stainless-steel counters, wood cabinets and all appliances. A breakfast bar with seating for two people is adjacent. Stairs from the entry lead to a large bedroom suite on a mezzanine overlooking the living area. It is well designed with plenty of built-in shelves and wardrobe space. Off the bedroom is the bathroom with separate tub and shower, beautiful wood counters with double sinks and wide framed mirrors. Separate toilet facilities are on the main living level. A first-class home in the heart of Paris. *Note: for your comfort in warmer months, the apartment is air conditioned. |
