Read Me a Story: Île-de-France

Although recently renovated, this stylish four bedroom family home has retained many of its period features and is the perfect example of when old meets new. The main communal area is open plan, making it easy to prepare dinner whilst chatting with the rest of the family. There's even a secure outdoor terrace to soak up the last rays of sun. The location is a short walk away from Opera, rue Montorgueil to the south and Pigalle and Montmartre to the north and the immediate area is buzzing with new restaurants, bistros, concept stores and grocers.
