The Area

During the late 19th and early 20th Centuries the bohemian lifestyle of Montmartre attracted a number of important writers and artists, including Van Gogh, Toulouse-Lautrec and Picasso, who lived there from 1908-1912, during his so-called blue period.

Circa 1938, Edith Piaf lived on Avenue Junot and the avenue is today home to a number of well known actors, film directors and music producers. Ciné 13, for example, at 1 Avenue Junot, a small theatre operated by Claude Lelouch (a well known French film director), has restored glamour to cinema going with its red leather armchairs, cocktails and swanky lighting.

Around the corner from the Cine 13 is the Moulin de la Galette, a windmill-turned dancing club that inspired Renoir's Le Bal de la Moulin de la Galette. Across the road is a sculpture of a man coming through a wall, named after Marcel Ayme's short story, "La Passe Muraille" (The Walker Through Walls).

Montmartre to this day retains a unique, vibrant, village-like atmosphere.

Location

At the foot of the Butte Montmatre, the apartment is minutes from all the sights but away from the noise and crowds. Seconds away from Lamarck- Caulaincourt metro (line 12), well served by buses going to all points of interest in Paris and a short train/taxi ride to Gare du Nord, it is an excellent location to serve as a base for exploring Paris. However, if you want to 'stay at home' there is more than enough in the immediate area to keep you occupied. A good start to your trip would be to explore on foot or via the 'Montmartrobus', an electric bus which you can catch a few minutes away on rue Lepic or on rue Caulaincourt.

Enter the building on the historic Avenue Junot through the heavy Art Deco style doors and enter a calm oasis.

Walk through the courtyard into the courtyard building and up the elevator to the 2nd floor (3rd floor US/UK).

Inspired by its setting in a very quaint 1920's townhouse, this beautifully cosy studio apartment in Paris has been renovated with a modern take on characteristic Art Deco styling.

Mellow wood fittings, parquet floors and trendy design pieces are brought out by the ceiling-to-floor windows offering light, courtyard garden views and a truly Parisian ambience.

High ceilings throughout give the apartment a 'loft' feel.

As soon as you enter the apartment you will feel instantly at home!

Leading off the hallway on your left is a large walk-in-wardrobe, and on the right-hand-side, the unique and stylish bathroom.

On the walls is a pair of fabulous original ART-DECO wall lights.

The Japanese-style bathroom door slides open revealing the unusual wet-room style shower, round African wooden hand basin and WC in its own separate little room within the bathroom.

The bathroom has a window that opens and has a gorgeous hanging plant outside it!

The bedroom cocoon has a large double bed, a designer bed-side table and lamp, and lots of shelving (at the foot of the bed).

There is a telephone at the foot of the bed also. Local calls to landlines are free, as are calls to various countries including Ireland, Spain and the US* (*does not include calls to mobile phones)

In the lounge there is 1 sofa, a leather sofa-chair, a pyrex coffee table, an office area with study desk, chair, lamp and plenty of storage shelving with decorative pieces and prints.

Floor-to-ceiling windows offer direct sunlight and the row of plants on the balcony will make you feel right at home in your Parisian abode!

Apart from providing a complete set of kitchenware, the kitchen is also fully equipped with a combination microwave - oven, dishwasher, washing machine, refrigerator, large and separate freezer, toaster, kettle, coffee-maker, juicer, blender and more.
