The Paris Skylight

The Paris Skylight: Île-de-France

This large and stunning house in central Paris is located on the Left Bank. As soon as you approach its pretty, flowered filled yard – you know you're in for a real treat. The icing on the cake is the gorgeous rooftop terrace – we can imagine wonderful evenings sitting with a glass of champagne here. With an unusual layout, the space and privacy of each bedroom make this an excellent place for a large family or group of friends. Heaps of natural light floods in through the large windows – we particularly love the enormous arched window on the top floor. Location-wise, you're only a ten-minute saunter from Luxembourg Gardens for those summer picnics and evening strolls. For art lovers, the Louvre and Musée d'Orsay are around a thirty-minute walk, while architecture fans can check out the Panthéon, a twenty-minute wander. This lovely home is the perfect base for your Parisian adventures.
