Located not far from the place de la République and at the heart of Paris' trendy NoMa (North Marais) district, this modern apartment is both cosy, stylish and perfectly placed. For those looking to tick off that lengthy bucket list, you'll find the Notre Dame just a twenty-five-minute walk away, the Louvre only a minute further (on foot), and the Bastille thirty minutes from your door. While a stroll through your immediate neighbourhood will have you passing hip bars, luxury boutiques and indie art galleries. When – weary from all that culture soaking – you do return home, whip up a hearty meal in that all-too-rare of Paris commodities, a well-equipped and large kitchen, that's perfect for a big family or a group of friends. Fry up a croque madame at the black anthracite cooking island, before sitting down to indulge around the chic dining area with quirky artwork adorning the walls and original lighting above. Fancy an evening in? The calming green-toned living space is the best spot for a wine and cheese night with good company – it feels modern with the colourful leather sofas, yet rustic and homely with the wooden coffee table and serene moody shades. The internal crittall windows are a classy touch too. Elsewhere, you'll find hidden away reading snugs, unique bedrooms with quirky wallpaper prints and artwork, as well as three swanky en-suite bathrooms. Spring has sprung in the Marais.
