Coucou Hibou

Coucou Hibou: Île-de-France

This family home in Paris boasts unbeatable views over Place de la Bastille – the Colonne de Juillet feels like it’s in your very living room. With this great location, you’ll be a five-minute walk from Place des Voges and twelve minutes from the Picasso Museum, both of which are staples of the lively Marais area – chock full of boutiques, cafés, bars and restaurants. And on Thursdays and Sundays, you’ll find a farmer’s market directly across from the apartment. Walk inside this Haussmannian building and you'll find a bright home with period features – large windows and parquet flooring. The living area is comfortable for unwinding and the dining table is lovely for group dinners (and ideal for enjoying the provided breakfast). While the kitchen has a more retro feel, the rest of the home lands somewhere between classic and modern, with lots of green jungle-like plants contributing to a joyful atmosphere. Two of the bedrooms are decorated with children in mind, making this home ideal for families who want to stay close to the offerings of Le Marais and the Bastille metro stop, a minute from your front door.
