| A beautiful two-bedroom apartment. Montparnasse was, of course, made famous by the many writers, artists, jazz musicians and intellectuals whose stamping ground it was at the beginning of the 20th century. Their shades still haunt the bars and restaurants ! Just around the corner is the famous Marché Daguerre - a pedestrian street entirely devoted to gastronomic pleasures! Bakers, cheese and regional speciality stores, restaurants buzz with locals, while others just watch the world go by from pavement cafés. Two metro lines will take you direct in 15 mins. or less to the Latin Quarter, Boulevard St Michel, Ile de la Cité, Notre Dame, the Conciergerie and much more. Direct bus to Musée d’Orsay. RER line to both airports. A real Parisian quartier.
In a typical a late 19th Century building with a small elevator, the clean modern lines of this apartment surprise and please! Renovated to a high standard it is roomy and light (approx 70m² -- 700 sq. ft.). Some tasteful pictures adorn the walls, and designer furniture predominates (including a glass Corbusier table).
