This incredibly spacious (1250 sq ft) first floor apartment is situated in an ancient building, dating back to the 14th century, in a magnificent location, right opposite Notre Dame cathedral. Access to the apartment is via one flight of stairs. The location is perfect for exploring nearby Boulevard St Michel and St Germain, the Ile St Louis and the Marais, all within a short walk. The apartment benefits from a very attractive garden terrace, just off the entrance hall, ideal for enjoying breakfast on a warm summer’s morning, or for ‘al fresco’ dinners by candlelight. The very large living room has tall windows facing the Seine and the booksellers on the Quai de la Tournelle. The architectural features are outstanding, including original exposed ceilings and unusual stone buttresses. Furnishings are comfortable and contemporary, with many antique pieces as well, set against the polished wooden floors and flaxen-coloured walls. The bedroom is at the rear of the apartment, sheltered and overlooking the small rue de Bièvre. There are also three single day beds in the living room for additional guests. A minimum stay of five nights is allowed at this apartment.
