Three apartments offering spacious living in a city, a small town


and the French countryside, picked by Sophie Gardner-Roberts


Paris pad: €425,
Who would have thought you could bag an apartment in the heart of the
capital for under €450,000? This stunning flat is located on the fifth and top
floor of a typical 1900 building. Facing south-west, it is flooded with light
and overlooks a cul-de-sac in a quiet part of the Marais district in the third
arrondissement. The flat was renovated in 2016 and
comprises a cosy and bright living/dining room, a
small but fully equipped separate kitchen, a
bedroom with ensuite shower room and a separate
toilet. Beautiful oak parquet flooring, beamed
ceilings and a brick fireplace add plenty of
character. The property is surrounded by art
galleries, shops, parks and markets. And, with a
Métro stop just 65m away, the City of Lights’ many
museums, parks and monuments would be yours
to explore at leisure.
