This amazing loft-apartment is located on the east side of MONTMARTRE, rue Cyrano de bergerac, in the same building as "Femis", the Paris movie university. It is built in the former "Pathé studios", the French "Universal Studios". The "Napoleon" movie from Abel Gance had its first scenes shot in this apartment.
One of the many charming stairs of the hill takes you directly to the Sacre-Coeur church, its gardens and the Old Montmartre village. On the south lies the “Abbesses” trendy district. North, one reaches in minutes the famous “rue du Poteau” market.
Transportation is easy : the “Lamarck” subway station stays at 3 min walking distance. Most interesting Paris spots may be reached in 15mn.
The apartment loft :
The apartment is charming. It is large : 1080 square feet (100 m2). The building has a wide private courtyard and a care taker. Location is very quiet : the street is not a through street. Last point, kids may play safely outside.
Lighting is full of contrast. Part of the apt is warm and shady, whereas the artist's studio is filled with extragant light thanks to its glass ceiling.
The furniture is “exotic”, a mix a French, Asian and Oriental style. The layout offers a wide area serving as dining room, kitchen, entrance and fire place, a master bedroom including bathroom (see fancy bathtub), a comfortable sofa lounge where one may also watch TV (1 or 2 person can sleep on single beds), and a large artist studio with 5 m high glass roof which also includes a showerroom (the orange sofa open and sleeps 2).
This apt is used 1 month per year by its owner. A “care taker” lives across the door. She will be helping on any issue. All our guests have enjoyed this convenience very much. |
