Penthouse style charming loft with views out onto the Hip new area everyone is buzzing about- the Canal Saint Martin neighborhood. Enjoy lots of open sky views while you sit out on your terrace, large enough for four people to even dine on, and take in the nice views from the sixth floor of your large 2 bedroom flat. Flooded with light from large windows and sky-lights this home is just over 80 m² (860 sq feet) in size and has an elevator (sixth floor elevation). This flat is very quiet and peaceful as well.

Very convenient to easy access transport, you have the multiple metro stations at Republique which offers lines 3, 5, 8, 9, and 11. These take you to just about all major sights in Paris, within only a few stops/ minutes travelling. For example line 8 goes to the Opera, Invalides/Ecole Militaire and Eiffel Tower areas, and line 11 straight to Chatelet and Marais Areas. In fact you can easily stroll to all the Marais area, and then cross the river into St. Michel district. For those wishing to avoid the touristy scene, this is a great area from which to do so! Lots of local populated cafes, restaurants and even boutiques to choose from. The Republique area which is only a 3-4 minute walk is full of activity and places to shop, buy food and leisurely people-watch from the sidewalk outdoor cafes…

This duplex flat offers a ‘piece de resistance’- a large round over 6½ foot (2+ meters) diameter bed in the upper loft area. This area is accessed by a large winding easy to climb staircase with guard-rails for the higher section - see photos,. This is the equivalent of a large double size bed. There are several sky lights which really open up the place (black-out shutters at night for sleeping). There is a second bedroom with a double bed which sleeps two people. Additionally, there is a small ‘niche’ type third room, when is enclosed by a wall, but has no door, (it does have a window). This open type room has a twin size bed for one adult or child. It is located off the living room.

A large dining room table can easily accommodate 5-6 people and is placed right next to the large sliding glass door windows that access the terrace. Everyone can share the day’s stories and plan for the next day’s activities at the table. The kitchen is of ample size and has all you need including an oven and stove, microwave, a coffee maker, a toaster, and refrigerator/freezer. Plenty of dishes and cutlery for all.

The bathroom is a pleasure to use for showering, with an extra large ‘open-style’ shower and rain-forest style overhead water. The WC is conveniently separated into another room, where there is also a clothes washer for your use. There is even a small separate studio-office space where guests can work on the computers if they wish… Fax machine is also provided, but remember this is a vacation!

Please note the the loft area and the stairs up to that area have no guard rail or banister and young children should not be allowed to use the stairs nor should they be allowed to be on the loft.
