Calm and confortable Appartement in center town of Paris
Our one-bedroom apartment sleeps up to 4 people and is on the ground floor for easy access. It was completely renovated in 2025, has modern appliances, and is quiet and comfortable. It sits in the calm garden of a residential building. The kitchen opens onto the garden, which makes it a lovely spot for a slow breakfast or an evening glass of wine. The living room has a sofa bed that sleeps 2 more people. The apartment is in the 12th arrondissement, close to the Félix-Éboué fountain and the Coulée Verte. It's just off a typically Parisian shopping street, with an open-air market twice a week, so you can live like a local among friendly, affordable cafés and restaurants, a neighbourhood church and a public park. All public transport (metro, tram and buses) is less than a 5-minute walk away. Metro line 1 takes you straight to the Louvre and the Champs-Élysées. You're also welcome to use our bikes, which are kept locked in a bike room in the building's basement. If you're looking for greenery, peace and safety in the heart of Paris, you'll find them all at our place!

Paris Off the Beaten Path: A Peaceful Green Oasis Just Minutes from the City Center
Nature & Outdoor Escape
Immerse yourself in a lush, green side of Paris that most tourists completely miss. Located right next to the huge Bois de Vincennes, our neighborhood offers a serene retreat where you can exchange crowded streets for peaceful forest walks, scenic cycling along the Marne river, and refreshing river swims. Rent a charming rowboat for a quiet afternoon on the lake, board a river shuttle with your bicycle, or simply relax under the shade of mature trees. It is an absolute paradise for nature lovers looking for a restful, family-friendly stay.Local Vibe & Urban Conveniences
Experience authentic local living in a safe, quiet, and welcoming neighborhood filled with cozy waterfront bistros along the Seine, lively local restaurants, and welcoming neighborhood bars. Take a stroll around the picturesque Félix Éboué fountain or enjoy a peaceful ride along the elevated Coulée Verte parkway. When you do want to see the classic postcard sights, direct metro lines get you effortlessly to the Eiffel Tower, the Champs-Élysées, or world-class shopping at Printemps—allowing you to enjoy iconic Paris entirely on your own terms.History & Architectural Charm
Step back in time and explore rich French heritage right on your doorstep, without navigating overwhelming tourist crowds. Wander through the impressive medieval Château de Vincennes—Europe's tallest surviving royal keep—or admire the majestic architecture of Vincennes' historic town hall. A short walk brings you into Saint-Mandé, a lovely enclave renowned for its quiet tree-lined avenues, elegant townhouses, and timeless village atmosphere.Unique & Unforgettable Experiences
If you think Paris is only about long lines and crowded museums, think again! Here, you can embrace a delightfully unexpected rhythm: row across a calm lake, bet on a harness horse race at the famous Vincennes Hippodrome, or roll your bike onto a scenic river ferry. Where else in Paris can you admire Notre-Dame Cathedral in the morning and be floating lazily in a rowboat or cheering at a horse race just 15 minutes later by bike? Whether you're a seasoned Paris visitor looking for a fresh perspective or a first-timer dodging the tourist traps, our home offers a peaceful, authentic, and truly memorable stay.
