The view from this home is enough to get us packing our bags. The balcony looks out over the Eiffel Tower, with uninterrupted views over the iconic symbol of Paris. The apartment is in the 16th arrondissement, close to Place du Trocadéro and Rue de Passy, an excellent spot for shopping. The apartment is simple in design, but that just makes the view all the more impactful – the living and dining space features three sets of floor-to-ceiling French doors that draw the eye outside.

Home truths:
*We recommend exploring Paris on foot or via the metro. Trocadéro station (line six) is within walking distance.
*There’s a laptop-friendly workspace here.
*The decor here isn’t particularly soulful.
