Exquisite Penthouse Apt In The Center Of Latin Quarter : Best Deal For 4 C5

Located in the very center of the Latin Quarter, close to the famous Panthéon, charming Place de la Contrescarpe, Sorbonne University, Saint Germain and the gorgeous Luxembourg gardens, this apartment offers a unique opportunity:

• It is an exceptional deal: the apartment was designed with extra care to comfortably sleep up to 3/4 guests (1 queen bed and 2 couches).

• The apt is located in a stone building constructed in the 1800s. It is on the 5th floor and offers a nice view above the square and roofs. The building was fully refurbished and redesigned by an architect in 2016. Four similar apartments sleeping for 3 to 6 guests depending on the apt are available in the same building.

The owners have preserved the traditional French apartment style with the beautifully exposed wooden beams. The apartment is super functional. They have also preserved the elegant French terra cotta tiled floor with a variation of colour and thickness in certain parts of the apartment. This floor style dates back to around 150 years, if not more, and is of great historical significance.

The apt location is a perfect base to visit Paris: based in the heart of the old Paris, in the Latin Quarter, facing Notre Dame, it is a very lively area.

Walk to “Rue Mouffetard” & “place de la Contrescarpe” to have an outside dinner, stroll in the nearby and beautiful “Jardin du Luxembourg”, “Jardin des Plantes” or “Arenes de Lutece”, visit the trendy Ile Saint Louis, Notre-Dame Cathedral, the Cluny Museum of Medieval Arts, the Pantheon, the Sorbonne university, le “Paradis Latin” Cabaret and the Saint Germain area. They are all steps away.

Stroll along the banks of the Seine, enjoy a drink on one of the many barges or dance Tango in the “Tino Rossi” square in summer before going to the Marais where are the best clothes shops of Paris. All at walking distance.

It stands 10 minutes by subway to most interesting Paris locations AND is a very charming area to be appreciated after a whole day shopping and walking through museums. One finds plenty of restaurants, shops, cinemas and many nearby cultural sites to visit.

Right down the building are located many shops, restaurants, bakeries, delies and more. We advise to try “Les Pipos” restaurant, typical traditional French food.

More about the apartment…

This penthouse is incredible. Its large volumes and high roof, the brightness of the light and the quality of the decoration bring a unique touch. The decoration was kept pure to enhance the beauty of the volume. Perfect for a honeymoon, it may also sleep a 3rd adult or 2 kids on couches.

On entering the apartment, one is greeted by a small corridor that serves the toilet to the right, then the well equipped kitchen, and leads to the huge living area.

The Living area offers a generous space. It has 2 windows with view over Paris and the surroundings. Two extra roof windows (with automatic shades) bring sky light.

The apt opens on the charming Place de l'Ecole Polytechnique which offers various terraces. No building blocks the view: it is open on the Rue de la Montagne Sainte Genevieve, and the famous and beautiful courtyard of the Ecole Polytechnique (host to many international conferences of researchers).

We are willing to share the fact that the building is an ancient building built in the 18th century. It is not possible to had an elevator. The stairs are narrow. Therefore, we believe the rental is better adapted to guests who used or fit to climb stairs. One will note that the high number of 5 stars review makes the apt a highly appreciated place.
