Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Situated on the little island between Le Marais and Notre Dame de Paris, this home is far away from the hustle and bustle of Paris, but still accessible enough, giving you the best of both worlds. It also means that the immediate area – known for having been an aristocratic area in the 19th century – has a particular small-town charm that makes sitting outside a cafe with a cappuccino feel special. Stroll the avenues looking for the perfect spot for a holiday selfie before grabbing a bite to eat at one of the many authentic eateries of the neighbourhood. After a day of sightseeing, eating to your heart's content, and sipping one too many coffees – if there is such a thing – head back and enjoy the eclectic comfort the home has to offer. Designed by a French architect, it has all the flourishes of Parisian living, but with an efficient floor plan and vibrancy that’s hard to rival.

About Île Saint Louis
Only a bridge away from busy and touristy Paris, l'Île Saint Louis is a small village at the capital's heart that's remained peacefully frozen in 17th century France. The tranquility of this island hits you as soon you as set foot and the lack of public transport makes it ideal for lovers of walks, long or short. Despite this, your time on the island will be far from uneventful -...
