Location
The flat is located in one of the most iconic areas on Paris’s Left Bank, where the neighbourhood’s historical identity is visible on every corner: former parliamentarians’ homes, reconverted private mansions, multi-century libraries, literary cafés and artist studios, which have helped shape the international reputation of this dynamic sector down through the centuries.
As for the building, it is located near a quiet street, which once linked the convents and bourgeois dwellings to the wide vistas of the boulevard Saint-Germain. Here, everything is accessible on foot: legendary cafés – Les Deux Magots and Le Flore – contemporary art galleries and luxury boutiques, while the area combines the peace and quiet of a typical Saint-German-des-Près side street with the sophisticated excitement of the boulevard.
Easily accessible via public transportation, surrounded by renowned addresses and monuments, the flat enjoys an exceptional environment, a true summation of the Saint-Germain-des-Prés lifestyle.
Description
In addition, a coatroom with a lavatory and cupboards can also be found on this floor, while all the windows are fitted with acoustic glass, which ensures complete peace and quiet, quite rare for such a location. Opposite the living room, the architect-designed staircase leads to the more private of the two floors, where a bathroom, decorated in Briare mosaic tiles, is bathed in dual-aspect light, and features a bathtub, surrounded by indoor plants, as well as an immense walk-in shower, accessible from both sides, which facilitates circulation. Continuing on from here is a wardrobe, while the bedroom, facing the courtyard, enjoys splendid views of Saint-Sulpice’s bell towers, recalling the flat’s prime location within historic Paris, but still sheltered from all view and noise.
Last, but not least, this mint-condition flat is fully air-conditioned and boasts an integrated and invisible audio system, whereas two cellars provide an additional immense storage area and parking is available in the immediate vicinity.
Our opinion
In an area where each stone contains the multi-century imprint of this neighbourhood’s storied intellectual and artistic lifestyle, this flat stands out thanks to an exceptional design choice: open living spaces that create the feeling of greater volume, which turns out to be an absolutely priceless feature when combined with the flat’s enchanting views of the surrounding bell towers, true landmarks in the neighbourhood.
This astounding pied-à-terre, furnished with high-quality materials and appliances and described as a “bachelor pad” by a famous interior design magazine, which featured the flat on its cover, would be ideal for one or two people, while its interior succeeds in combining contemporary precision – stainless steel with a vibration finish, clean lines, long-lasting materials – with an inviting ambiance thanks to its warm colours and rounded forms.
