About this property
The quirky duplex, Apartment Coty, is found on the left bank in the Latin Quarter of the 5th Arrondissement. Situated on the third floor of an 18th-century building, this tastefully decorated apartment has a loft vibe. Sleeping five guests in two bedrooms, it has kept many of its original features and blended them with modern contemporary living. Having escaped the sweeping renovations of Haussmann, the Latin Quarter is very much like stepping back in time. Its ancient feel and its cobblestone streets are reminiscent of medieval Paris.
As you step into the open-plan living area, you cannot fail to be impressed by how light and bright it is. The high white-painted beamed ceilings and two double-glazed windows facing the garden allow natural light to flood the room, creating an inviting, airy atmosphere. It is tastefully decorated with a comfortable double sofa bed, cosy armchairs, a stylish coffee table and large flat-screen television. A grand huge gilt mirror beautifully complimented a sideboard with photographs and curios, adding a touch of elegance to the space.
The dining area is equipped with a table and chairs that comfortably accommodate six people, creating a perfect space for enjoying meals together. It is conveniently positioned opposite the galley-style kitchen. Fully equipped with everything you need to showcase your culinary skills, it boasts a wonderfully tiled floor that adds a touch of charm. A practical breakfast bar also supplies an added spot for casual dining or enjoying a quick snack.
The master bedroom is a bright and inviting space. Charming sloping wall and ceiling beams are painted white to enhance the sense of light and openness. It has a double-glazed window overlooking the courtyard and is furnished with a comfortable queen-sized bed, well-stocked built-in shelves, and a built-in wardrobe. The hardwood floor adds a touch of warmth, while a wall-mounted flat-screen television is positioned opposite the bed for your entertainment.

Also included is a large vanity unit with a basin and mirror supplying ample storage for grooming needs. The WC is separate. A flight of stairs will take you to bedroom two, a delightful space filled with three skylights that face the courtyard flooding the area with natural light. The room features several built-in units beneath the eaves supplying convenient storage. Decorated in a cheerful style with two single beds, this cosy room is perfect for children or friends sharing.
Bathroom two is designed with a semi-circle shower enclosure, offering a modern touch. It features a high gloss vanity unit with a basin and two drawers supplying ample storage space. Above the vanity unit is a wall-mounted glass cabinet for storing essentials. Additionally, this room has a WC.
