The Rue De Sevres Residence
Perks for the Parents
A loft-style hideaway in the beautiful 6th arrondissement, with playful kids rooms and a contemporary living space. It sleeps 6 + 1. This spacious duplex is a great size for its central location, so you can bring the family to the heart of the city. Global tourists love this neighborhood for its artistic vibe and proximity to green spaces such as Luxembourg Gardens. Architecture fans will also love this property’s unusual features, such as exposed brick walls, lofted ceilings and unique room shapes.
Why Kids Love it
The main kids room has books and toys for younger children or toddlers, plus a fun layout with a nook for the bed. Bedrooms 2 and 3 would also be perfect for older kids or teens. It’s 10 minutes on foot to Catherine-Labouré for the nearest park and playground and 15 minutes walk to Luxembourg Gardens, where you’ll find lots of families enjoying the carousel, playground and puppet theater. It’s also worth a trip to Jardins des Plantes for the Natural History Museum (15 minutes by metro).
Things to Know
No smoking, pets or parties. Please note that the WCs are separate from the bathrooms and there is one on each floor. The apartment is located on the fifth floor and there is an elevator. Some of the bedrooms have low loft ceilings which may not be suitable for taller adults. The airport is around 1 hour away by car or train.
About the Location
Offering views towards the Montparnasse Tower and Eiffel Tower, this home is right next between Duroc and Vaneau metro stations (both just a few minutes walk) in the sought-after 6th arrondissement. The location presents plenty of options for keen shoppers, with Le Bon Marché only a 10-minute walk away and it’s a great neighborhood for Notre Dame (only 12 minutes by metro) and visiting the Invalides district (10 minutes by metro).
Accommodation Details
This fifth floor duplex has 4 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The living area is open plan, with a kitchen, dining area and living space beautifully decorated in colorful soft furnishings. Hang out here with a book from the well-stocked shelves, try the piano or look out over the rooftops from the wide kitchen window. The primary bedroom has a double bed and an ensuite bathroom with a bathtub and walk-in shower. There are 3 more bedrooms: 1 single room that’s ideal for younger kids, and 2 more twin rooms which can be converted into doubles. The main family bathroom is on the upper floor.
Style Notes
Loft living. Reflecting the musical and cultural history of the Montparnasse district, this enthralling apartment blends color and contemporary styling to create a creative and inspirational space. The black kitchen is punctuated with color from the neighboring living area, while the pops of color on the walls and woodwork add a fun splash to the hallway and kids rooms. We love the monochrome bathrooms, the modern integrated black fireplace and the exposed brickwork texture in the second loft bedroom.
