The countryside in Paris! A 2-room apartment with terraces, bathed in sunlight and air-conditioned, on the top floor of a 1930s mansion, in a haven of peace, tranquility, and greenery right in the heart of Paris. Secure and well-served by public transportation, just a stone’s throw from the Bois de Boulogne and the banks of the Seine, 15 minutes from downtown Paris and the capital’s main attractions. Close to all shops. Ideal for working from home. Info @ ahovelacque @ free. fr.
The apartment consists of a large bedroom with built-in closets and a workspace, and a spacious, open-concept living/dining room with an open kitchen and a sofa bed for two people, opening onto two terraces (north-south). Bathed in light and overlooking the surrounding gardens, its tranquility is disturbed only by birdsong. My home base between trips, a very personal repository of my memories that add a warm, sometimes exotic touch to a modern, functional, and decidedly colorful decor. I hope you’ll feel just as at home here as I do every time I return. Fully equipped, ideal for writing, working, or relaxing. Above all, enjoy the terraces if the weather permits!
The apartment is located on the top floor of a private mansion. It’s accessed via a separate entrance with an elevator and a staircase that leads to another apartment, which is also private. The house is located on a private, traffic-free, and secure street lined with houses and gardens—an oasis of calm amid the hustle and bustle of the surrounding city. It’s very well served by public transportation, and you can also park a bike there and even charge an electric scooter!
This is not a hotel or an investment property. The apartment, like the rest of the house, is lived in and full of life. We’re happy to welcome you here and hope you’ll feel right at home with us. You’re welcome to read the books, listen to the CDs (as long as you put them back where you found them), and use all the amenities and spaces made available to you... Please respect the “private” closets where I keep my belongings and take good care of the place.
