With its sought-after location in the Grands Boulevards district of the eighth arrondissement, this home provides a peaceful base in an extravagant pocket of Paris. Here, you're an eight-minute walk from the Opéra Garnier and the Galeries Lafayette. Though with Saint Lazarre station practically on your doorstep, offering easy access to the metro, you're in a prime location for exploring the rest of the city.

You'll find this home proudly perched on the fifth floor of a beautiful Haussmannian building, boasting newly refurbished interiors and the real pièce de résistance, a large balcony. Start your days roosted here, nestled amidst Parisian rooftops while sipping your morning coffee.

Inside, it's all parquet flooring, exposed beamed ceilings and a regal colour palette of golds, crimsons and warm neutrals. We love the open-plan living room, where floor-to-ceiling French windows beckon sunlight to flood the space. Here, a graceful spiral staircase takes centre stage, leading to lavish sleeping quarters and a chic office-come-laundry-room set-up. With its winning combination of contemporary comforts and stylish decor, this home promises comfort and sophistication fit for a stay in the City of Lights.
