From the moment you step into Rue de la Planche, you're struck by its sophistication and grace. The interior is meticulously designed to make the most of the classical features, from the ornate cornicing on the ceilings to the rich herringbone wooden floors. The sitting room is bright and airy, with large windows that let the light flood in and provide soothing garden views. Double doors lead onto the formal dining room, complete with a large mirror and carved sideboard. The kitchen, by contrast, is contemporary, with a relaxed breakfast table and a Juliet balcony overlooking the garden.

There are two tranquil bedrooms – a primary suite with a cosy queen-size bed and ensuite and a guest room with a double bed, which can be converted into two singles if required. The double sofa bed provides additional sleeping arrangements.

The view of the garden brings a little natural beauty into the environment, and you're only a short distance from the stunning Jardin du Luxembourg for an afternoon stroll. The apartment building has a private entrance and concierge and is a beautiful Paris vacation apartment for a relaxed family break.
