Tucked
away on a quiet street in the village of Montmartre
in Paris's 18th district, this charming one-bedroom
holiday rental is a tranquil location from which
to embark on your Parisian holiday.
The
apartment is located in a real Parisian neighborhood
in a 19th century residential building. You are
within a 15 minutes walk of Paris's famed Montmartre
sites and the energy of the cafes, restaurants
and boutiques crowding the picturesque streets
that surround Sacre Coeur Cathedral.
Tall French windows in the living room and bedroom
open from this bright flat onto the building's inner
courtyard, eliminating the distraction of street noises.
The
apartment underwent a renovation, which transformed
the space into a luxurious, inviting haven that will
be a peaceful retreat after a long day of sightseeing.
Everything has been carefully chosen to delight the
eye and better accommodate our guests.
The
spacious master bedroom is furnished with a large
queen size bed. The calm coziness of the room make
sleeping in a pleasure though we hope you will go
out and enjoy all Paris has to offer. A corner fireplace
adorns the bedroom. A large armoire provides plenty
of space to store your belongings.
The
living room has a sofa bed, that can either convert
to two single beds or to one double bed. Our wall
to wall bookcase holds a DVD player and flat screen
TV. We have provided a selection of DVDs as well
as cable television with international channels to
help you unwind after a long day of site-seeing.
The storage unit in the bookcase also provides additional
space for those sleeping in the living to store their
belongings.
Off
of the living room area is a small bathroom with
shower, also recently redone, we have tried to make
the best use of the space.
Stay
connected via the internet with our high speed connection
on our Mac computer or use your own to connect wirelessly.
A
small dining area separates the living room from
the kitchen. The table can be expanded on both sides
to give plenty of room to happy diners.
Our
custom-built open kitchen (designed by our architect
Vianney Deffontaines and carpenter, Gautier Deffontaines),
is both classy and efficient, with its granite countertop
and beautiful wood finish. We have installed a washer/dryer
for your convenience and a combination microwave/oven.
All that you will need to make a scrumptious meal
is provided for you.
This
is a perfect place to go shopping "à
la française". Going from the cheese shop
to the butcher and to the green grocer is an intricate
part of French tradition- one that survives to this day
though we have plenty of one-stop supermarkets. The apartment's
location is within a short distance of rue Damremont's
boutiques, "fromageries" (cheese shops),
"boulangeries" (bakeries), and "patisseries"
(pastry shops). It is also close to avenue St. Ouen's
outdoor food market, making it a pleasurable starting
point for those of you who are "foodies". Whether
you choose to prepare your meals yourself or to partake
of the many restaurant offerings, you can be sure to
find your heart's desire in this neighborhood. Savor
the possibilities!
