Location
The Quai d’Anjou, a riverside street on the northern bank of Île Saint-Louis island in central Paris, is one of the most highly sought-after spots in the old heart of the French capital. The island’s architecture was developed in the 17th century. The island stands out for its evenly sized quays, its authentic architecture of similarly designed edifices, including townhouses, and its enchanting atmosphere where time stands still. Nestled between the River Seine and classical facades, the district is calm, elegant and centrally located. The apartment is a short stroll from the trendy Marais district, from Notre-Dame Cathedral and from the historical right-hand bank of the River Seine. Its residential backdrop is truly unique. Moreover, its is well connected to public transport links: the metro stops Pont Marie (line 7) and Saint-Paul (line 1) are nearby.
Description
You step through a carriage entrance doorway in an elegant 17th-century townhouse on a quay on Île Saint-Louis island. A remarkable staircase with a wrought-iron balustrade leads to the upper floors. The communal areas have been well maintained. They reflect the special attention paid to the whole edifice. The apartment lies up on the fourth floor. It is in excellent condition. Its layout is simple and smooth and its rooms are well proportioned. Its south-facing position ensures a generous amount of sunshine inside. It offers a clear view, yet it enjoys absolute privacy, set back in calm. The entrance door leads into a main room with old wood strip flooring that mirrors the exposed ceiling beams. An open-plan fitted kitchen blends harmoniously into the lounge. It has a modern style yet respects the old character of the dwelling. A bedroom adjoins a shower room, which is tastefully designed. The shower room has a spacious walk-in shower, a double stone washbasin and bespoke furniture. Together, these items form a practical whole. Two large storage spaces complete the apartment. The property includes a 9m² cellar in the basement too.
