Description Inside Energy: Paris

Dressed in neutral hues in effortless designs, this Parisian apartment is styled in the same way Parisians like to dress themselves – with understated elegance. We love the soothing energy that fills this space, as, despite the home's central location set amid some of Paris' busiest shopping streets, it brags a real sense of calm and tranquillity.

Gather around the built-in dining area for a French breakfast of champions in the mornings filled with croissants, fresh bread and hot coffee – and quality French cheese and wine in the evenings. That's if you prefer not to sample the infinite bars and eateries within easy walking distance of the apartment. From here, you'll have the city at your fingertips, with the likes of the Pompidou Centre, the Picasso Museum and the world-renowned Louvre Museum – all less than a twenty-minute stroll away.

Home truths:
*The entrance to this home is shared with the building's other residents
*Though there isn't a dedicated desk here, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace
*This home is in a central spot, so noise is to be expected – light sleepers may want to pack earplugs
*Parking in Paris can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to the easily accessible public transport where possible – though we think the best way to see the city is on foot
*At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area
