Description
This splendid 265 sqm apartment, tastefully decorated, enjoys an exceptional location near the Musée dOrsay.
Located on the third floor (4th American floor) of an upscale XIXth century building, it is composed of two wings -each of them including two bedrooms and one bathroom - separated by the "living area" (kitchen, living room and study).
The 40 sqm kitchen is the very heart of the apartment : all designed by Boffi and fully equipped, it can welcome 8 people around the large dining table (Christian Liaigre). The large island includes a sink, gas burners (surmounted by a hood) and a large stainless steel countertop. The kitchen also has a second sink, a dishwasher (Gagguenau ), a large fridge and a freezer (both Subzero), a wine cellar (Gagguenau) as well as an excellent oven and a steam oven (both Gagguenau). The kitchen over looks the verdant cobblestone courtyard through a large loft-style window.
Adjacent to the kitchen is a laundry room with a washing machine, dryer (both from Miele) and storage space.
The living room and the study, with 10 ft high ceilings and floor to ceiling windows, over look the quiet rue de Lille. Combined with period elements carefully restored (fireplace, moldings, parquet floor), the exquisite elegance and the warm shades of the Christian Liaigre furniture compose an inviting atmosphere for relaxation.
A Bang&Olufsen hifi system, with a central unit in the living room, airs in kitchen, living room and study.
Overlooking rue de Lille and accessible from the study, is the first wing with two bedrooms and one bathroom. The master bedroom is a very spacious room with a large king size bed. The original fireplace surmounted by a spectacular mirror has been carefully restored. The room is also equipped with large custom-built closets
The second bedroom also enjoys an elegant marble fireplace with mirror and has two single beds and custom-built desks and wardrobes.
The bathroom is also very spacious with two sinks, a large shower and an elegant bath tub (from Aquamass).
Adjacent to the bathroom are separate toilets.
All along the corridor, giving access to the first wing rooms, you will find some built-in cabinets which can be useful to store your luggage.
The second wing of the apartment, also has two bedrooms and one bathroom. They over look the same cobble-stoned courtyard as the kitchen and are hence very quiet. The first bedroom has a queen size bed. The second bedroom has a daybed, that can be turned into one queen size bed. Both bedrooms have original marble fireplaces.
The bathroom in this wing has two sinks and a spectacular bath tub.
A large custom-built walk-in closet is available for the guests of this wing.
At the end of the corridor you will find separate toilets.
There are three toilets in the apartment : one in the main entrance and one in each wing.
The nearest metro station is Solferino (line 12) or RER C at Musée d'Orsay. You will find a taxi station just off the Musée d'Orsay.
