"Modern style in a fairytale historic setting"

This apartment is located in a historic 17th century building on
the Ile-St-Louis island that marks the most central point of Paris,
bringing most of the interesting areas and sights within easy
walking distance. Walk out the door and you are greeted by fairytale
views of the river Seine and its romantic bridges. As one of the
most desirable and sought-after neighborhoods in Paris, the area
displays an evident and massive Parisian charm.
This one-bedroom has just come out of a full renovation (2007) and
counteracts the classically historic surroundings with a clean-lined
modern interior.
Period hardwood parquet floors are retained throughout, bringing
warmth to the modern treatment of the interior. The spacious living
room includes a sofa, a dining table and chairs (both are
mid-20th-century classics), and a beautiful plasma TV.
An open kitchen provides all you need for eating in. The
Italian-style shower unit is cleverly integrated using opaque glass
bricks, making it a stunning feature of the apartment.
The bedroom is fairly small, but certainly includes everything you
would need: double bed, large antique walnut wardrobe and even a
luggage rack. Courtyard-facing, the whole apartment is very peaceful
and quiet.
This apartment provides modern design and comfort, in a top-notch
historic Paris location.
Call it the best of both worlds!
