Our 2nd project, named Jardin Saint-Paul, features a wonderfully located 2 bedroom 850 sq. ft. apartment in the Marais. It features original exposed wood beamed ceilings, natural stone walls, working fireplace, modern renovated kitchen and bath, and 6 full length windows overlooking a tranquil courtyard garden. The apartment has been completely updated, with new Ipé hardwood flooring in the living and sleeping areas, new soffit lighting, new marble bathroom, updated fully equipped kitchen with granite & stainless countertops, top of the line Miele appliances, stocked with fine bone china and crystal stemware.  Throughout the apartment are elegant antiques and original artwork.   The apartment can comfortably accommodate up to 6 people.

Located just steps from the popular pedestrian only street of rue des Rosiers, this apartment, which was featured in the New York Times, is literally just a few minutes by foot from the Metro (Saint-Paul), the Seine, Place des Vosges, and several wonderful museums, including the Musee Picasso and Musee Carnavalet. Walk through history as you enjoy the ancient hotels particulier which have been around since the earliest days of the city, like Hotel de Sens and the Hotel du Sully.  The Marais is truly the heartbeat of Paris!

 

Services of every kind are just a minutes walk away, including the fresh fruit market, bakery, cafes, and boutique shops of every shape and size. After a relaxing morning shopping the local markets, enjoy whipping up your own culinary delight in the remodeled kitchen with granite counters, full oven, microwave, and gas cooktop stove.  Your efforts will be well presented on gorgeous bone china, accented by a nice bottle of wine served in fine rim crystal stemware.  Afterwards, cleanup is a breeze with your top of the line stainless Miele dishwasher.  Of course, the granite and professional stainless countertops provide a durable yet elegant work surface that every chef appreciates.

 

Enjoy dinner with your family in the spacious, high ceilinged dining room with antique crystal chandelier, gazing out onto the tranquil garden setting, while you talk about your day's ventures around the City of Light. Afterwards, perhaps a digestif in the sumptous living room, highlighted by the new sofa, maybe catching up on world events on your flat screen HD television.. or perhaps the soft Parisian sounds of Edith Piaf in the background on the CD/DVD player with surround sound.  Don't worry, it's all right there.  Catch up on your e-mail with the provided laptop computer, or grab the cordless phone and call the relatives back home.  No need to worry.. it's free!

 

When you're ready to call it an evening, enjoy the luxurious marble bathroom with it's full walk-in shower, then it's a good night's sleep between the velvety soft Egyptian cotton sheets.  Forget about sirens, trash trucks and party revelers keeping you awake.. your abode is a world away overlooking the quiet courtyard.

Your place in Paris.  This is the Paris experienced by those in the know.  Not the tiny crowded hotel rooms that Paris is famous for; not even the apartment rental with the cheap rental furniture and even cheaper choice of appliances. No, this is your home, your pied-a-terre in Paris.  Even better, you didn't have to spend a fortune on it!  Welcome to Jardin Saint-Paul.
