Description

*** The Apartment *** One bedroom apartment, 42 square meters (453 sq ft), on the first and last floor (US second floor) of a small building with private entrance and private stairs. Lots of light and crossing (living-room on the street and bedroom on the courtyard). Living room (15 sq mt) with desk station, lots of jazz vinyles you're welcome to listen to, a table to have your meals and a piano. The kitchen is a bit vintage and not very functional but it does the job. There is no dishwasher but a washing machine with dryer. The bedroom has a comfortable queen size bed with an ensuite bathroom. I will make space for your clothes in the closet and the drawers. Please note that there is no tv. *** The Neighborhood *** The apartment is two minutes away from the Bassin de la Villette, the biggest artificial stretch of water in Paris linking the canal de l’Ourcq to the canal Saint-Martin. Numerous cultural activities, movie theaters, cafes and restaurants make this canal basin a festive place, very popular with Parisians. Bakeries, groceries, pharmacy, supermarkets, organic stores, post office... are two minutes away. And if you don't feel like cooking, there are a lot of good places to take away burgers, pizzas, chinese food, etc. The closest metro station ("Riquet" on line 7) is on the same block than the building , just a one minute walk from the apartment. The line 7 takes you in 20 minutes to "Hôtel de Ville" and "Châtelet", the very center of Paris. "Jaurès" station (line 2 and 5) is a 8/10 minutes walking distance. There is a Velib station (sharing bike system) down the street. On summertime, you can swim in the free outdoor swimming pool on the canal at the end of the street, you can also do kayak and rent boats. => Bright 1 bedroom apartment => Paris by the water => Metro station on the same block => All amenities at doorstep
