This luxurious modern apartment is situated in the Quai de la Tournelle on the Left Bank, close to the renowned restaurant, ‘La Tour Argent’, and with magnificent views over the River Seine, the Ile St. Louis and the Notre Dame Cathedral. A short walk across the bridge, the Pont de la Tournelle, will bring you to the Ile St. Louis where there are many cafes and restaurants, a bakery, pharmacy, post office, a grocery store, and specialist food shops to choose from. In the other direction, along Boulevard Saint Germain, there is also a large and varied choice of shops and restaurants. Nearby highlights to visit on foot include the Notre Dame Cathedral, the Sainte Chapelle and the Marais.
Entrance is via the modern marble floor entry with secure intercom entrance device and a private lift which gives direct access to the apartment. Air conditioned throughout, there is a great feeling of space. The reception room, with three large French windows, is mirrored on one wall to reflect the panoramic view of the Seine. On another wall is a gigantic modern painting. There is a slightly incongruous blend of antique and modern furniture and ‘objets d’art’ which nonetheless creates a strikingly elegant atmosphere. Amenities include cable television (with international channels), stereo system, telephone with answer machine and ADSL internet access. The lift has been adapted, so as to be suitable for wheelchairs. This is a non-smoking apartment and pets are also not allowed.
