The Hopeful Romantic, by Veeve

An exquisitely styled and romantically classic two-bedroom apartment, replete with ornate cornicing, traditional fireplaces, and plush interiors. You can enjoy the best bits of vintage Paris alongside the hip eclecticism of the 3rd arrondissement, filled with delectable food markets, water-side strolls along Canal Saint-Martin, and excellent train links — including Gare du Nord, just a 12-minute walk away.

LIVING ROOM
Treading the line perfectly between old-school glamour and stylish comfort, this charming living area makes for an inviting spot to unwind after a day's adventuring around the city. A collection of cushy armchairs and that alluring, velvety red sofa, offer plenty of space to relax with the family, whilst the marble feature fireplace, framed by two beautifully impressionistic paintings, add a touch of old-time romance.

DINING ROOM
Elegantly antique interiors are bathed in the light through French windows overlooking the street. If you're staying in of an evening, it's a splendid backdrop for a few home-cooked meals, giving you the flavour of Parisian fine dining from the comfort of your own home.

KITCHEN
Exhibiting a more contemporary touch, the kitchen is sleek and well-equipped, with space for a handy little table — ideal for a spot of breakfast.

PRINCIPAL BEDROOM
High ceilings and crisp white interiors combine with a large window offering delightful rooftop views, to create a pleasantly serene double bedroom. There's another charming fireplace in here, along with an antique desk, useful as a dresser or for a little study space — allowing you to work in the style to which this home accustoms you.

BATHROOM
The bathroom is dripping in emerald tiles, with a generous amount of space for a walk-in shower, bathtub and double wash basin.

SECOND BEDROOM
Simple comfort is the message here, with pared-back interiors, plenty of light and a double bed.

We love...
If you're looking for a little verdant tranquility, it's right under your nose here, with local secret, Le Jardin Villemin, just minutes away. Bordering the Canal Saint Martin, it comes with a children's playground and on a warmer day you'll find it a great, grassy spot to sunbathe whilst listening to the gentle plash of the fountain.

Home Truths:
No smoking, pets or parties! This home is on the 4th floor with a lift. The principal bedroom features a Queen-sized bed. There's a baby cot available on request, just bring your own linen.
