Cherubs & Garlands

Perched on the top floor of a handsome period building in the happening Le Marais district, this home boasts a balcony with out-of-this-world city vistas. Spot Notre-Dame, the Eiffel Tower, and even Sacre-Coeur, all from the comfort of your own home - ideally, drink in hand. Recently renovated with functionality in mind, the apartment presents a perfect mix of modern design and select antiques to nod to the property's historical roots. There's a compact kitchen for rustling up a quick breakfast and a snug bedroom nook, set back from the living space with curtains to cocoon you. But we think those drapes are best drawn back to take in the impressive views amid the Parisian rooftops – it's a scene you'll never tire of. In the charming, rambling streets below, discover hip restaurants, bars, and independent boutiques on your doorstep. And you won't have far to walk to explore the classic must-sees of the city. The Louvre Museum, Place des Vosges, and Centre Pompidou are all within walking distance or hop on the Arts et Metiers subway (two minutes on foot) to unearth other corners of this picture-perfect city.
