Live like a Parisian in this classic Paris apartment. It is ideally situated for exploring this wonderful area of Paris made famous by so many artists, including Van Gogh, Picasso and Toulouse Lautrec. Within a couple of minutes walk from the apartment you have the famous artists' square the Place du Tertre, the Sacre Coeur Basilica and Montmartre's windmills. And just downstairs, two artists have their studios on the ground floor of the apartment building!

The condo apartment has been completely redecorated and refurbished. It is typically Parisian with its original features still intact, including marble fireplaces, oakwood floors, plaster mouldings and large windows that flood the apartment with light. From the balcony there is a breathtaking view of the famous windmill, the Moulin de la Galette.

The 40 square metres (430 square feet) apartment comprises a living room, bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, entry hallway and walk-in closet. The bedroom has a queen size bed and the living room sofa converts to a full-size double bed. The kitchen is fully equipped to allow you to cook at home if you like self-catering or you can sample the many wonderful restaurants in the neighbourhood - check out the Guest Guide in the apartment for our recommendations of tried and trusted cafes and restaurants.

For those rare nights in, there's a television with international channels and a DVD player with a small selection of films. The apartment is equipped with free high-speed internet access via DSL as well as wi-fi, if you're travelling with a laptop. There's also a telephone with free calls to landlines in many countries.

It's the perfect romantic hideaway for a couple or a roomy home-from-home for a family holiday. It's also spacious enough to comfortably accommodate two couples or two to four friends on vacation together - the layout of the apartment ensures privacy.

The apartment is located at the top end of rue Lepic, which is the quieter end, yet you're just a few minutes walk from the famous Montmartre sights. The area is well-served by public transport linking you to all of Paris, including a direct bus route to the Eiffel Tower! (nearest metro: Abbesses)

We are sure you'll feel completely at home in this classic apartment and you can use it as the perfect base from which to explore Montmartre and all the attractions of Paris.

Why the Owner Chose Paris Arrondissement 18

Montmartre has always had a special place in my heart, since I first discovered it on holiday in Paris. When I wanted to buy an apartment for vacationers, I knew I wanted it to be in Montmartre, for that unique combination of true Paris life, as experienced every day by Parisians, and the magic we expect when we visit Paris.

The Unique Benefits at this Apartment

The living room has full-length windows that open on to a small balcony. There are a couple of floor cushions there so that you can take a book and a glass of wine and sit out on a summer evening. It's very peaceful. Or enjoy breakfast there while you watch people walking by down below.

A
Sacre Coeur Basilica

just 2 mins' walk from apartment!

B
Montmartre Cemetery

Final resting place for, among others: painter and sculptor Edgar Degas, composer Hector Berlioz, filmmaker Fran�ois Truffaut, physicist Jean-Bernard Foucault, and writer Stendhal (Henri Beyle). Ask

C
Moulin de la Galette

The oldest windmill in Paris - as seen from the balcony!

D
Montmartre vineyard

The only city-center vineyard in Paris.

 

Owner's Map of Paris Arrondissement 18

I fell in love with Paris on a school trip and knew I'd come back some day to live here - which I did. What was meant to be a year or two turned into a lifetime love affair with the city! I enjoy sharing my favourite city with visitors to Romantic Montmartre and, as I live nearby, I'm always on hand to help.

    • This was our first experience in renting an apartment over the internet and Elaine proved to be both kind, patient and professional with her contract and trustworthy. Her charming place does feel like a home away from home and we now feel we prefer renting an apartment than a hotel room. Liked the area,we chose to walk "the bute" but its strenuous after walking all day to visit...take the bus!The traffic is continouous in the street but it is away from more busy areas. Elaine graciously offers guides and helpful information and certain commodities which were appreciated. Accepts well positive suggestions. Merci de nous avoir fait confiance avec votre appartement. Nous gardons de beaux souvenirs de notre 31 ième anniversaire de mariage et la pluie n'a certes pas arrêté notre visite effrénée de Paris.

    • We all enjoyed our time at 102 bis, dodging the "sketcherazzi", savoring nutella crepes, and taking in all the charm and detail of Paris. We absolutely love the metro system! Thank you for a comfortable, memorable stay :)

    • What a fantastic apartment!!! Whilst our time in Paris was short, staying in this apartment made our trip to see Paris in the February sunshine perfect! Excellently kitted out (thank you, thank you for the hairdryer!!!) and with a wealth of tips and hints from previous residents to help you during your stay, Elaine has really thought of everything! The apartment is excellently located in the quieter end of Monmatre, you are able to see Sacre Couer from the balcony window, which drew a gasp of surprise as we arose on our first day! A beautiful gem in a beauiful city- thanks Elaine- we will be back!!

    • This was our second stay in this great apartment - and also our honeymoon! The flat has everything we need, the location is ideal, and we were made to feel very welcome. We're sure we will return very soon.

    • We have just spent 3 days in the appartment, and it was perfect. Quiet, cosy, warm, charming, and near to some wonderful restaurants (try the new one just down the road in rue Lepic "Des Si & des Mets" which is "sans gluten" and absolutely wonderful food). We will definitely try and come again. Elaine was friendly and incredibly helpful, so we felt that we always had someone to ask if we needed anything - which we didn't!

    • Four of us rented the apartment in early September, 2008. We really enjoyed the sense of being part of Paris, without feeling like 'ordinary tourists' - whom we watched filing up and down the Rue Lepic on walking tours! The apartment lived up to its description on the website, something I had been uncertain would happen. It was thoughtfully and thoroughly equipped, as well as being visually attractive. Everything worked as it should have. The recommendations for restaurants, shopping etc were well-informed and we really enjoyed the bustle of the Rue des Abbesses and the range of food shops there. The metro is convenient and the Rue Lepic quiet, but very close to the bustle of Montmartre. Only thing to remember - coming home is unavoidably uphill! Would we stay there again and recommend to others? Most certainly - it gave us freedom as visitors, a comfortable environment and a sense of belonging in Paris.

    • We had a lovely time at Elaine's apartment, right in the heart of Montmartre. Although it's only a stone's throw from Place de Tertre and a 2 minute walk from Sacre Coeur, there are no tourists and it's very quiet. The Metro station is only a five minute walk away and the sight from Sacre Coeur over Paris is breathtaking! The apartment itself is very comfortable and cosy. There's a PC and WiFi/WLAN, a DVD Player with a lot of movies and a very comprehensive "Guide to Paris" from Elaine herself, with lots of helpful informations. I can recommend this location with good conscience!
