Inspector Gadget: Île-de-France

Located within a historic building in a prime Marais spot close to the exclusive Place des Vosges, this home's traditional spaces have been refreshed with a stroke of eclectic minimalism. An airy living space with ample seating and surrounded by artistic pieces offers the opportunity for a large group to relax and socialise. The sleek kitchen-diner captured our attention the most thanks to its incredible design. With three air-conditioned bedrooms plus a nursery, a family with a taste in contemporary interiors will have plenty of room to comfortably spread out.

Home truths:
* It's on the 1st with no lift access so some stairs are unavoidable

* We found some of the kitchen appliances to be very sophisticated, so this home would suit those who enjoy state-of-the-art amenities

*The master bedroom which is in mezzanine has an ensuite bathroom - it is not visible through the photos but it was well renovated with a nice shower
