Set on a tree-lined avenue of grand Parisian buildings, this apartment delivers both style and a standout location. Inside, it’s bright and homely, with a light-filled open-plan kitchen and dining area that opens directly onto the balcony. Both bedrooms also have French doors leading outside – one is cosily tucked into a book-lined library – and there’s a sofa bed for children or extra guests. Though it feels blissfully tucked away beside the sprawling Bois de Boulogne, you’re just moments from the city’s major sights – you can even catch a glimpse of the Eiffel Tower over your morning coffee.

Home truths:
*At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area.
*There’s no air conditioning, but large windows and French doors keep the space fresh and breezy.
