This absolutely charming first floor apartment is situated in the rue de Turenne, close to the magnificent Place des Vosges, at the heart of the Marais. The rue des Francs Bourgeois, with its trendy boutiques, galleries, cafés and restaurants, and the Musée Carnavalet, is just around the corner, and the rue des Rosiers, the Marais’s historic Jewish quarter, with its delicatessens and several exclusive boutiques, is just a few minutes’ walk away. Also within a short walk is the Musée Picasso, a great outdoor food market, the Marché des Enfants Rouges, and also the the Pompidou Centre and the Ile St Louis.
The apartment has been decorated in keeping with its traditional features, including exposed ceiling beams and wooden floors. It has been furnished in an eclectic, slightly Bohemian style, with beautiful antiques and other pieces collected by the interior designer owner over the years. The accommodation comprises a large living room and open kitchen, a master bedroom with shower bath room and a second bedroom (which is accessed from the master bedroom). This second bedroom has a trundle bed (single bed, also with a pull-out single bed), and its own bathroom with bathtub. The kitchen window and both bedrooms and the bathroom (with bathtub) look out over a central atrium with fountain. The atrium cannot be accessed, but provides additional light to all rooms around it. Equipment includes air conditioning, wi-fi Internet, stereo, flat screen TV, a safe, ice machine, washing machine and two French heated towel rails. There are also two fridges, one in the kitchen and the other in the bar area of the living room. There is a telephone for free calls to land lines within France, Europe, the U.S. and Canada - only cell phone calls are charged for these destinations.
Access to the apartment is by a secure entrance with code, and up just one flight of stairs. As the second bedroom is off the master bedroom, the apartment is best suited for 2 - 4 people, and ideal for a family. Guests receive a wine and cheese welcome pack, and maid service is included once a week.
