Description
Delightful 40sq.mt apartment offering charm and elegance in its design and layout, characterised by on sight beams, white washed walls, and plenty of sunlight.
A small but well furnished living room presents select pieces such as a comfortable single sofa bed facing a coffee table and antique style armchairs, a book case with a stereo and DVD player, and a large flat screen TV, while a decorative fireplace adds warmth to the room and a wooden table acts as dining table for 3. To one end of the living room is the separate kitchen, brand new and modern in its design, with contrasting shiny red built-in cabinets, and fully equipped with all necessities including a large fridge and freezer, and both a regular and microwave oven.
The sleeping area is to the other end of the living room, and comprises a double bedroom with a double bed(140x190), a large built-in closet, a small writing desk with a flat PC screen with Internet connection - to be used both as a computer and an extra television – and an en-suite bathroom fitted with a bathtub with overhead shower.
Area
The apartment is located on the border of the 3rd arrondissement, and more precisely in a street which stretches from the 3rd to the 4th arrondissement.
The lively quartier of the 4th arrondissement around the Pompidou Centre, known as Beaubourg, also offers much in the way of visual art.
To the north of the Pompidou Centre numerous commercial art galleries and the odd bookshop and salon de thé occupy the attractive hôtels particuliers of narrow, pedestrianized rue Quincampoix. Halfway down the street on the right is the delightful, cobbled passage Molière, with its quirky shops.
South of the Pompidou Centre, rue Renard runs down to the Hôtel de Ville, the seat of the city's government and a mansion of gargantuan proportions in florid neo-Renaissance style, modelled pretty much on the previous building burned down in the Commune. An illustrated history of this edifice, always a prime target in riots and revolutions, is displayed along the platform of M° Châtelet on the NeuillyVincennes line. Those opposed to the establishments of kings and emperors created their alternative municipal governments in this building: the Revolutionaries installed themselves here in 1789, the poet Lamartine proclaimed the Second Republic here in 1848, and Gambetta the Third Republic in 1870. But, with the defeat of the Commune in 1871, the conservatives, in control once again, concluded that the Parisian municipal authority had to go if order was to be maintained and the people kept in their place.
