Views of greenery from a wall of glass, in the middle of the city? You can tell this duplex apartment has been renovated by an architect. A floor-to-ceiling wall of glass fills the space with natural light. The decor is a soothing medley of Scandi-chic pieces in dove-grey and sunshine yellow. The striking black kitchen is tucked beneath the mezzanine bedroom for meals at home and there’s a soaking tub in the bathroom for post-sightseeing relaxation. You’re a little out of the city centre here, so you can get under the skin of one of Paris’ residential neighbourhoods at the local bistros and bakeries. When you want to head into the big-hitters – the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame and The Louvre – it’s just a two-minute stroll to the Convention metro stop, ready to whisk you into the city centre.
