Описание: http://www.parisrentalconnections.com...

The countryside in Paris. A 3 storey house set in a quiet garden courtyard with 3 bedrooms. Located in the new more trendy than the Marais, Canal St Martin.
Within walking distance to Gare de l'Est and Gare du Nord this amazing house is more than a dream come true for anyone visiting Paris.

Once in the house enter into the entrance with the sweeping staircase and open plan kitchen and living room. The dining table can accomodate 6 or more. Step downstairs to reach the Chill out room which can be used to accomodate one person on the single bed or can be used as a TV watching room or office. It has a wc and a sink.

Please note that the stairs are very old stone stairs that are narrow and quite steep at times - for this reason we cannot offer the house to kids under 6 or seniors with walking difficulties.

Bedroom 1 is upstairs it has a wonderful light coming in from the 2 large windows which are flooded with sunlight. There is a real walk-in closet set with wooden shelves. A small desk space and commode. the double bed measures 140x200cm

The Bathroom is on the first floor and has a Japanese slate bath and shower with overhead shower and shower hose. The glass ceiling gives a good dose of wake-up light and illuminates the space. You can take a bath too. The lovely old fashioned large sink is silky smooth. The second wc of the house is in the bathroom.

Walking up to the second floor is the second bedroom - be careful when you walk up as there is a low beam as you enter. This has a double bed and has a floodlit velux window in the roof. You can sit under the gables to read some books but that part of the room has a low ceiling. The bedroom itself has a normal height.
The bed is 140x190cm.

Location

The flat is about 10 minutes away from metro Gare de l'ESt (lines 4,5 & 7) and 15 to 20mns walk from Gare du Nord. Republique is about 13mns walk.

A few minutes walk away is the lovely Jardin Villemin on the corner of the Rue des Recollets and Quai de Valmy. One of the biggest green areas of the 10th arrondissement it has a kids play area and a huge collection of centenial trees. The park is partly run by the locals as a community project. The Couvent Villemin now has a cafe. Along with the Canal itself it's a haven of peace.

In the spring and summer evenings, the canal-side is a popular picnic place for local people, and aspiring musicians who sometimes entertain the diners. Cafés and quirky boutiques flank the water, which is traversed by beautiful wrought-iron footbridges (remember the skimming stones in the opening shot of the movie "Amelie”? this is where it was filmed).

There is an outdoor market along the canal in the direction of Bastille, which is open Thursdays and Sundays (largest market in Paris), the Bastille creative art market on the same location every Saturday. On Sundays, the streets directly alongside the canal, Quai de Valmy and Quai de Jemmapes, are reserved for pedestrians, roller-bladers and cyclists - perfect for renting a bike and seeing the city from a different perspective.

Another possibility is to take a tour of the canal by boat. Visitors of all ages should find something to love alongside the Canal Saint-Martin including numerous playgrounds along the canal going towards Bastille (15 minutes away). Try dinner in the excellent brasserie at Hotel du Nord, or the nearby La Marine, or a hearty feast at Bastille's Bofinger Restaurant. The famous Chez Prune cafe is also just 10 minutes walk along the canal.
