This duplex apartment, which can also be purchased fully furnished, is situated on rue des Saints-Pères, the border between the 6th and 7th arrondissements. It thus lies at the very epicenter of the St.-Germain-des-Prés quartier.  Being near Rue de Grenelle, the apartment is ideally situated for shopping for daily needs, is near several bus lines and is almost equidistant between two Métro stations, St.-Sulpice and St.-Germain. 

The 120 m2 (1,291 sq. ft) apartment occupies the ground and first floors of a small residential building. The main living area is on the upper level, which is entered either by a flight of steps from the lobby or by the building elevator. Beyond the living-dining room is the well-illuminated galley kitchen, with cream-colored walls, black stone countertops and a floor tiled in terra cotta with black accents. The kitchen is compact, modern and fully equipped. All built-in appliances - electric stove and oven, microwave, dishwasher and refrigerator, as well as an American-style washing machine and dryer - are included in the sale price.

The living room features a wall of built-in wooden cabinetry, a fireplace and a mantel that runs the length of the room. At the far end there is a wall of built-in bookshelves. Behind the kitchen is a spacious half-bathroom as well as a wall of placards that offer generous storage space. 

A sturdy spiral staircase leads to the lower level of the apartment. On this level are the master suite and a guest bedroom, both with modern, handsomely appointed ensuite bathrooms. Both bedrooms are air-conditioned.

The apartment looks onto a courtyard and is perfectly quiet despite its situation in a vibrant quartier humming with activity. The boulevard St.-Germain and many icons known to lovers of Paris' Left Bank, such as the Café des Deux Magots and Café de Flore, are only steps away.  It is a five-minute walk to the famous Au Bon Marché department store.

This apartment was recently renovated and furnished to a high standard. It is in perfect condition in every respect. The apartment has a professionally property manager and produces substantial rental income when not occupied by its owners.
