Description
In a classic early 1900s building, exclusively located opposite the Musée d'Orsay, this lovely apartment has just been completely and elegantly renovated to create the perfect space for families or larger groups. An elevator takes you up to this unusually spacious three bedroom, three bathroom apartment, in the heart of the art and antique district of Paris, in Saint-Germain des Prés.
The apartment has three large and bright bedrooms, all with king beds and their own private bathrooms, combining beautiful original features with modern comforts. The fully equipped kitchen with its lovely moulded ceiling, black handmade tiles and all new appliances has a refrigerator, dishwasher, oven, coffee maker, toaster and all utensils necessary for cooking and eating. The kitchen is open onto a dining room with ornate fireplace and dining table and chairs for 8 people, perfect for dinner parties or family gatherings. From here the dining room leads onto the comfortable living room with its luxurious sofas and furnishings, and tall windows overlooking the Musée d'Orsay, creating the perfect backdrop and flooding the apartment with natural light. In addition to these living spaces, there is a further cosy office space with desk, computer with WIFI, and sofa.
Each of the three king-sized bedrooms enjoys purpose built and elegant wardrobes and en suite bathrooms. All of the bathrooms have been designed and finished to the highest standards, with carefully chosen faucets and beautiful pebble floors and wall tiles, highlighted by complementary colors in the bedrooms. Two of the full bathrooms have big showers, whilst the third has a large bathtub with an enclosed American shower above, and its WC located separately (ideal if you have extra guests). We supply white fluffy towels, liquid soap, and a hair dryer in each bathroom.
A separate laundry room is an added benefit of this apartment, enabling the top-of-the-range washing machine and dryer to be tucked away from the living spaces, and also providing additional storage for suitcases. The apartment is also equipped with a large flat screen TV with cable, WIFI and computer, and telephone for your use. Views are either across the narrow street to the Musée d'Orsay, or onto a tranquil inner courtyard, making this centrally located apartment calm and light.
To ensure your comfort, the apartment is also fully heated and air conditioned for the summer.
Service: We will be at hand to meet and settle you into the apartment, answer questions and help out in any way we can. We can make restaurant, theater and activity reservations and recommendations. As we live in Paris we will happily share our knowledge, insight and experience with our guests.
The rental price is all inclusive, including fresh flowers, French wine and croissants upon arrival, a computer with high-speed internet access, all electricity and heating charges, sheets, bathrobes, towels, liquid soap and staples in the kitchen (salt, pepper, bottled water, coffee, tea, sugar and more).
This completely new three bedroom, three bathroom apartment is characterized by its generous feeling of understated luxury. Each room has been carefully and tastefully decorated and furnished to give an individual flavor, whilst the subtle use of color and parquet flooring which flows throughout, creates an harmonious, warm and welcoming ambience, in which you feel instantly at home. The generous living spaces and excellent layout makes this apartment perfect for families or a group of friends who want to experience authentic living in the traditional elegance of a classic Parisian apartment.
Location: From this amazing location, you can explore all of Saint-Germain des Prés on your doorstep, or just as easily cross the river to enjoy the famous and ornate Tuileries Gardens, presided over by the Louvre museum. Spend the day across the quiet street opposite your apartment at one of the most celebrated museums in the word, the Musée d'Orsay, or walk to the Rodin museum nearby. Enjoy shopping for local produce in the surrounding streets and preparing dinner at home, or try one of the many excellent restaurants a stone's throw from your apartment. Cross one block to the river Seine, stand on the pedestrian bridge and take in so many of the famous sights clustered along the banks of the river, which lend the city its magic, or come at night and understand why Paris really is the City of Lights. Here one truly feels a part of a real French neighborhood while experiencing the magical city of Paris.
Situated in an exclusive and sought after location in St Germain des Prés on the left bank, this is the heart of Paris fashion, galleries, antique shops, traditional market streets and restaurants. Visit markets, ancient churches, shops and clothing boutiques, antiques and art galleries, fabulous restaurants, elegant tea shops and cafés where in another century writers and philosophers met. The apartment is just a short walk from the pedestrian streets of Saint Germain and from the famous "Cafe Flore" and "Les Deux Magots". As well as the Musée Rodin and the Musée d'Orsay, the Luxembourg Gardens and its museum are in Saint Germain. From this incredible neighborhood you can walk to most Parisian sites on both the left and the right bank, and if public transportation is your choice, there are many Métro lines and buses that come through the area.
Just around the corner from your apartment, on rue du Bac and rue de Verneuil, you will find a fabulous cheese shop, famous patisserie and bakery, a butcher, fresh fruit and vegetables, an artisan chocolate maker, wine merchant and delicatessen, as well as two small supermarkets, all within 5 minutes walk of your apartment.
Metro Solférino, a 5-7-minute walk from the apartment, takes you in a couple of stops to Place de Concorde and Place de la Madeleine (the center of Paris), and on up to Montmartre.
There is a Health Club close by.
