Paris Apartment - Studio in Le Marais (PA-3297)

Neighborhood:

Located between Rue de Bretagne and rue du Forez, this spacious studio has been recently refurbished. It is in a charming neighborhood with old buildings and hotels particuliers, between the Oberkampf area and the Marais with many trendy cafes, restaurants and shops. The neighborhood has lots of facilities and services and it overflows with art galleries and design shops, food shops and a bio (organic) market. In short walking distance are the Place de la Bastille, Place des Vosges, the Picasso Museum and the Place de la Republique.

Premises:

This 22m² (approx. 235 sq. ft.) studio apartment is located on the fifth and top floor of an 18th century walk-up building. The entrance gate, protected by a coded security system, opens into a corridor leading to a courtyard and the staircase. There is a hall linking three apartments; it has a washing machine and a dryer.

The apartment entrance opens directly into the open kitchen and the living room.

The open kitchen has a double-glazed window with northern exposure overlooking a courtyard. It is equipped with two vitro ceramic burners, a combo microwave/oven, a kettle, a coffee maker and a refrigerator.

The 11m² (approx. 115 sq. ft.) living room has a double-glazed window with northern exposure overlooking a courtyard. It is furnished with a queen-size bed, an armchair, a console, and a closet.

The bathroom has a shower topped by a large showerhead, a washbasin and a toilette. (Note: The toilet is electric. Due to the European plumbing system in the building, the water closet cannot handle any items other than human waste and toilet paper. All other objects no matter how small -- i.e., Q-tips, paper, hair, etc. -- will clog up the drainage system. This could result in damage to the WC.)

There is also a small 1m high mezzanine ceiling accessible with a scale.

Heat and hot water are both electric.

The nearest metro station is Fille du Calavaire (line 8).
