It's hard to impress us but this modern home, with its designer feel, smashes all our expectations. A beautiful family home in the historic 14th arrondissement, it's a truly unique find that will make you feel right at home without compromising on Parisian style. We love the open-plan kitchen, dining and living area – a dream room to entertain in that is also ideal for curling up with a novel and glass of red wine. Slide the glass door open and you'll also find a small but perfectly formed outside space perfect for a sundowner after a busy day exploring the city. The surrounding neighbourhood is full of bohemian spirit, with traditional bistros and bustling cafés, with the main sights of Paris just a short Métro ride away.

Home truths:
* There is no air conditioning in this home so it will be hot during the summer months
*With sculptures and an eclectic collection of furniture, it might not be suitable for small children
