Paris Writing & Research Retreat Overlooking Parc des Buttes-Chaumont

Description

I am offering my apartment for temporary rental to academics, researchers, or writers seeking a quiet, inspiring base in Paris. Located directly across from the Parc des Buttes-Chaumont, the apartment enjoys a uniquely immersive natural setting. In the warmer months, the proximity to the park creates the feeling of living within a wooded landscape, with birdsong in the morning and the scent of greenery in the evening while remaining fully connected to the city. The apartment is particularly well suited to focused work. It features a spacious double living room that functions both as a comfortable living area and an effective workspace, equipped with a desk and a dining/work table. The atmosphere is calm and conducive to sustained reading and writing. Additional features include: • Fully equipped kitchen (oven, microwave, induction stove, dishwasher, washing machine) • Bathroom with both shower and spa bathtub • Bedroom with walk-in closet • Second-floor apartment in an Art Deco building with elevator access The neighborhood is residential and vibrant without being overcrowded or overly touristy. It offers a wide range of cafés, food shops (including bakeries and cheese shops), farmers’ markets, and restaurants. The park itself provides an ideal setting for daily walks, work breaks, morning coffee, or informal outdoor meals. The apartment is well connected by public transport (métro lines 11, 2, and 5), with central areas such as the Marais reachable in approximately 20 minutes. I am Italian and, in recent years, have spent extended periods in Italy due to family caregiving responsibilities. This apartment is my primary residence—not an investment property—and was carefully renovated in 2017, with attention to design and detail. For this reason, I am seeking responsible and attentive tenants—ideally individuals or couples accustomed to caring for a lived-in home—who will appreciate and respect a thoughtfully maintained personal space.
