Information about the property :
RARE! Like a country home in central Paris! Newly renovated in December 2019, ultra-calm Bastille/Gare de Lyon 71 sq meter 2-bedroom apartment with private 67 m2 yard/garden, fully equipped with American conveniences. Parking spot available for an additional charge. Available for immediate move in for the shorter term as well (between February-May, would consider renting on a weekly/monthly basis). Ideally looking for someone to rent for a full year on a Summer 2020-Summer 2021 basis (dates flexible) but longer term (one year renewable lease) fine too.
Sunny, spacious, ultra-calm and comfortable, ground floor 71m² 2-bedroom apartment with private yard. Superbly located just steps from the Seine; across the bridge from the Jardin des Plantes (10 minute walk), around the corner from the Arsenal Marina, and close to the fabulous fresh market scene at Marche d'Aligre and surrounding shops, cafes and restaurants. (Just to give you an idea of the food scene within walking distance: https://www. nytimes. com/2019/04/10/travel/affo- rdable-dining-in-paris. html) One small footbridge away from the Marais. In a calm, friendly building with a wonderful concierge who will happily receive all your packages, even on Saturday morning.

Two bedrooms, each with ample built-in closets and shelves. The master bedroom has a queen-size bed and the 2nd bedroom/home office has an American single size daybed and desk. Both have direct access to a second private side yard.

Absolutely perfect for families: Baby and child accessories (crib or toddler bed, high chair, all the indoor and outdoor toys your child could dream of, etc) available upon request. Ground floor means easy stroller access, and you can leave the stroller in the super secure hallway if needed. It also means your kids can crawl, jump, run and wrestle to their hearts’ content without worrying about squeaky floorboards or cranky neighbors (key!).
