This luminous apartment in Le Marais is perfect for couples. Considered one of the city's most desirable neighbourhoods, this area boasts trendy cafes, fashionable boutiques, and upscale restaurants – and they're all just a short stroll from your door. French windows flood the living space with light and offer views of the medieval church across the road. Your host has a selection of books to choose from, and the kitchen is well-suited to rustling up meals using produce from the local market. There may not be a lift to the fourth floor, but factor in the proximity to a metro station (a three-minute walk) and it's no surprise that this gem caught our eye.
