Tulipan

Tulipan: Île-de-France

Set within a calm spot, just minutes from the landscaped greenery of Parc des Buttes-Chaumont, this is an ideal location for a family or larger groups of friends looking to stay in a tranquil neighbourhood, just slightly parted from the hectic centre. The home boasts ample living spaces, including a bright and airy dining area leading out onto a interior courtyard garden that’s perfect for coming together at breakfast time as you hatch plans for your day ahead. Being located over four floors, we love how spaced out and private the bedrooms feel, and the kids will like the large basement for crashing out in after a day adventuring in the big city. Interiors are a blend of quality, antiques pieces and original artwork to give the home some character, alongside a dazzling-white, modern kitchen and bathrooms. When you’re finally drawn to the city’s bustle, hop on the metro just a two-minute walk away, and you’ll be in the heart of the city in no time. Or do like the locals and head for the nearby park - it’s a favourite with Parisians, who come here to walk its expansive grounds, take the kids to a puppet show, or simply to unwind with a bottle of wine and a sundown picnic.
