General overview
Welcome to my oasis of calm in the city of Lights!
The space
My apartment: Located on the 4th floor (out of 7) of a classic parisian building and clocking at 33 m2, or 355 sq ft, my apartment is composed of a small entrance, a bathroom, a living room, a semi-open kitchen with a serving hatch and a bedroom. The windows open on the courtyard facing south-southwest, bringing light but little noise. The kitchen and the bathroom are also equipped with windows. There is a workstation in the bedroom, a portable projector for movie nights, an airfryer and an oven in the kitchen, and plenty of good vibes. Now, the place is very much a typical Parisian apartment, in that it is one « cozy » side, some of the amenities are showing their age, and the wooden floors are a bit creaky, but it’s also really peaceful and lovely! I love living here, and I hope you will love staying here as well. My neighbors are friendly, quiet, and respectful.
Guest access
4th floor walkup, no elevator, unfortunately.
Notes
Note:
- as most old-school Parisian apartments, my place is not well insulated and hard to properly heat up (especially with my electric radiators). It can be a bit on the chillier/draftier side in the winter though I do my best to mitigate it as much as possible. It’s not freezing by any means but should be a consideration if you’re very sensitive to temperatures.

Neighbourhood
My neighborhood: Halfway between the Père Lachaise cemetery and the Buttes-Chaumont park, Ménilmontant (20th arrondissement) is a vibrant and authentic Parisian neighborhood, chock-full of various dining options and quirky shops. The area is multicultural but not touristy, which can be a breath of fresh air in a city as popular as Paris. My street is especially pleasant, with a good bakery, several cool bars, a supermarket, an Italian trattoria right downstairs and the nearest subway stop only 200m away (line 2). For those who would prefer biking, plenty of Vélib’ stations pepper the area, and you can find Lime bikes really easily. A taxi station is also very close by. One of the best neighborhoods in the city, the 11th arrondissement is only 5mn away.

Hi, I'm Margaux, I'm French-American and I've lived in Paris for the last 2 years after almost 10 years spent in New York. I'm currently looking for a swap to Manhattan or Brooklyn for this Fall.
