Sleeps 6 in Superior Quality

ID#71

Steps from Rue Montorgueil, Paris's most famous market street, 
a marvelously large, light-filled luxurious two-Bedroom apartment
 in a classic 18th century Parisian building.

Pass through a large iron gate on the street and a cobble-stone entry and ascend a centuries-old stairway (there is no elevator in this classic 18th century building) to the third floor, where you enter a spacious, light-and-air-filled apartment. Solid oak floors covered with Turkish and Moroccan rugs underscore two large salons with 12-foot ceilings surrounding an extra-big kitchen, demarcated by revealed, restored 18th century wood beams, of black lacquer cabinetry and the best Rosle accessories and appliances. The sound system carries music through the entire apartment (and can be modulated in each room). Two bedrooms with queen size beds, each bedroom with its own luxurious full bath, a step-down tub in one, an oversized shower in the other, and both with large towel warmers. This apartment is light-filled, with six large windows, all graced with flower boxes filled with ivy, lavender, and herbs.

• Kitchen:  Separated from the two salons by floor-to-ceiling 18^th century wooden beams, the kitchen is breathtakingly spacious, with black lacquer cabinets, butcher block counters, and a vast selection of Rosle kitchen accessories on hooks and magnets mounted on a long bar of flat zinc. The appliances are brand new and top quality: an induction cook-top, an American-size refrigerator, dishwasher, oven, microwave, and washer/dryer. A thoroughly modern professional kitchen.
