Right on the banks of the Seine, you can look out at the houseboats on the river from the traditional French windows of this apartment. The windows open up to create Juliet balconies, so you can let the sounds of the city drift into the large living area. In here, it’s everything you want from an artsy Parisian abode, with wood-carved objects d’art from around the world adorning the shelves and a big selection of art books on display. The wavy breakfast bar in the kitchen enjoys a sunny spot by the window, so you can watch boats putter down the Seine as you sip your morning coffee.

In terms of location, a ten-minute stroll along the riverside sees you at the Eiffel Tower for an iconic Parisian view. Sticking close to home, you’ll find a litany of neighbourhood bistros serving fine French cuisine and cafés and bakeries for coffee and freshly bakes croissants every morning.
