Built around a central courtyard, this one-bedroom apartment in Paris' Latin Quarter is at the heart of the capital's cultural district. There's almost a loft vibe to this home with its spiral staircase leading to a mezzanine double bedroom, and there's lots of natural light coming into the main communal area. You're only a short walk away from the banks of the Seine as well as Notre Dame on the Île de la Cité.

About Île de la Cité
Ile de la Cité is one of the two natural islands known as the official epicentre of Paris, where the medieval city was founded. With only 1,000 inhabitants, it's definitely exclusive!
