couturier's on Ave. Montaigne. 15 minutes walk to the Champs Elysees,
20 minutes walk to Place de la Concorde and the Bon Marche department
store
Within
3 blocks of the Eiffel Tower and Champ de Mars. The Champ de Mars
Park is a rare bonus in Paris as there are few large parks in
the centre of the city. Walk, run, play in 1 of 3 playgrounds,
basketball court, go to the puppet theatre or just sit and enjoy.
Nearby skating and bike rental are a fun activity in the park,
especially after strenuous site seeing
- Open Markets: Rue Cler is 1 block away, one of the best and
most famous streets for food in Paris. Pont de l'Alma is 5 minutes
walk and has the largest open market in Paris every Wednesday
and Saturday morning. Merchants come from the country with: wines,
fruits, vegetables, flowers, fish, pates, breads, even 5 types
of escargots!

the apartment to a small hallway with antique dresser and writing
table. A built-in closet provides ample hanging space and shelves.
Powder room is first on the left with wc. Bathroom is next on the
left with bathtub, flexible shower and sink.
The corridor leads to the living room, with open kitchen on the
right and living room on the left. Original parquet flooring and
fireplace make this a warm and inviting room. French doors lead
onto the balcony, with a gorgeous, full-on view of the Eiffel Tower
and view down the tree-lined street below. A pretty yellow sofa
converts to a comfortable bed at night. An old bistro table sits
next to the French doors to provide a beautiful view while you dine.
The
kitchen is sunny and large for an apartment of this size. An antique
provincial buffet provides excellent workspace. All of the basic
kitchen requirements are included: microwave/oven, washer/dryer,
refrigerator, dishwasher. Dishes are from E. Dehellerin in Paris,
the shop which furnishes all good restaurants. With a full array
of cookware, you can shop the local market and prepare your own
gourmet meals.
The master bedroom is next with a beautiful antique bed which has
been converted to queen-size. Lean back against the soft pillows
and enjoy a full-on view of the Eiffel Tower. It is truly stunning
and almost demands breakfast in bed every morning.

for your convenience.
