Location
The rue Galande – between Place Maubert and René-Viviani Square – was created in the early 13th century and its medieval origins are still visible thanks to the curve of its outline and the many buildings from that era, which still line it today. A commercial artery for centuries, it experienced a slightly less glorious period in the 19th century, but has now become one of the most characteristic streets of old Paris and, in particular, the 5th arrondissement.
In addition, the flat is only a couple of steps away from the Pont au Double, which provides direct access to the forecourt in front of Notre-Dame Cathedral, on the Ile de la Cité, as well as Place Saint-Michel, the gateway to the Latin Quarter, while, from here, the entire capital is easily accessible on foot or by taking one of the many public transportation options available in the area.
Description
On a street that abuts the Church of Saint-Julien-le-Pauvre, the seven-storey building, with about a dozen flats and located near the many shops on Place Maubert, is accessible via both the Cluny-Sorbonne and Maubert-Mutualité metro stations, serviced by the line 10, as well as the Saint-Michel Notre-Dame station, with the RER lines B and C. Built in 1907 in an Art Deco style, it features an exterior clad in red brick and ashlar stone, while its entrance, secured with two sets of doors, is decorated with an interplay of mirrors.
With a stately staircase, as well as a lift, providing access to the first floor flat, the latter, with a floor area of approximately 38 m², boasts a floor-to-ceiling height of 2.78 metres, whereas its foyer provides access, on its street-facing side, to a living room of nearly 12.5 m² with a white-veined brown marble fireplace as well as a small balcony.
As for its courtyard-facing side, the flat includes a lavatory with a small window, a fitted kitchen, a shower room, a bedroom, of approximately 10.5 m², as well as a laundry room. Featuring individual electric heat and hot water, straight-plank hardwood floors throughout, as well as many cupboards, the flat has preserved several of its original details, such as old doors, a ceiling rose, cornices and crown moulding, while it should be noted that some minor upgrades will be initially required in order to provide the flat with all modern standards of comfort.

Our opinion
This neighbourhood, sandwiched between the Seine and Montagne Sainte-Geneviève, has preserved its historical charm and one-of-a-kind cachet thanks to its narrow streets that wind their way amidst tall and, quite often, medieval façades. With its pleasant volumes and understated décor, which, although carefully maintained over the years, will require some preliminary upgrades in order to receive its new inhabitants, this flat would be ideal for a single person, a Parisian couple or as a second home for those who want to establish a foothold in the capital.
In addition, it would also be perfect for historical home enthusiasts who want to live in a lively neighbourhood with its green markets, small shops and restaurants, as well as take advantage of the intellectual influence of its nearby prestigious institutions and establishments. Last, but not least, the peace and quiet of René-Viviani Square or the Luxembourg Gardens, only a few steps away from the flat, will undoubtedly please its future occupants looking for a moment of tranquillity in this bustling capital.
