At the top of an 1830s building, this chic apartment puts you just footsteps from the Champs Elysees. In fact, it overlooks the quiet and manicured gardens of Champs Elysees Avenue. A five-minute walk sees you at the Tuileries Gardens, which lead straight to the Louvre Museum. So you’re close to the biggest sights in Paris here. Inside, you’ve got the classic herringbone floor, floor-to-ceiling French windows and wooden shutters you’d expect from a 19th-century Parisian apartment. A long, wrought-iron balcony runs the length of the living room and double windows open up onto it. The view from here, over the rooftop of Paris with the Eiffel Tower all the way in the distance, is simply stunning. Antique furniture combined with the old stone fireplace at the centre of the living room adds a touch of class. Should you need to work remotely, there’s a dedicated desk complete with a computer monitor. The dining room in dove grey with a sparkling chandelier overhead it a delight to sup in and the kitchen is all modernism just where you want it. Home truths: *There is a lift in the building but the apartment itself is over two floors so may not be suitable for those with limited mobility *Electricity, heating and cleaning are not included in the rate
