Orange Madeleine Paris, Île-de-France

Property Description

At the top of a Haussmann building that has witnessed the reign of two kings, the French Revolution and the rise and fall of the Napoleonic Empire, this quiet apartment is a far cry from the bustling boulevards below. The living space is chic, with plush textures and a dreamy ceiling fresco. Upstairs, cosy sleeping quarters feature beds to rival those of any five-star residence. Peep through the windows to get your bearings – you’ve clear views of the Madeleine Church, located at the end of the street as well as the prestigious Rue du Faubourg-Saint-Honoré, home to a smattering of luxury stores and the icon of French elegance, Hotel Le Bristol. After breakfast in the quintessential Parisian cafes, a stone’s throw from your doorstep, take a ten-minute stroll to the Jardin des Tuileries for a turn of the picturesque park. The Louvre, Domaine National du Palais-Royal and the Bourse de Commerce–Pinault Collection are no more than a twenty-minute walk away so you needn’t travel far for a culture fix.
