Lovely 1-BR Penthouse Flat with Office, Large Terrace, and Sacré-Cœur View

Description

This fully furnished top-floor apartment (with an elevator) offers a peaceful and inspiring retreat for scholars, writers, or visiting researchers in the multicultural Goutte d’Or neighborhood, at the foot of Montmartre. Known as one of Paris’ most colorful quarters, La Goutte d’Or features bustling markets, independent cafés, and artisanal shops. This historic neighborhood is also home to specialty food shops, independent bookstores, and several small parks, offering a vibrant yet authentic Parisian atmosphere. The iconic Sacré-Cœur is just a 12-minute walk from the apartment via the Village Ramey — a village-like street loved by locals, lined with cafés and restaurants. Located on the 7th floor and served by an elevator, the flat combines abundant natural light, exceptional quiet, and a rare 33 m² private terrace. The bright living area features a dining table and a comfortable sofa bed, with a large window opening onto the terrace. From here, enjoy open views of northern Paris, including Sacré-Cœur. The secluded terrace, lined with greenery, includes an outdoor dining area and an electric grill/plancha. It is also perfect for working, reading, or relaxing at sunset. The bedroom overlooks a tranquil courtyard with a fountain, offering a restful atmosphere. It has a queen-size bed with a high-quality mattress and a large wardrobe. Linens and towels are provided. A separate study room, adjacent to the kitchen, includes a desk, shelving, and a window facing the terrace, ideal for research, writing, or remote work. The kitchen is fully equipped with an induction cooktop, small dishwasher, medium refrigerator, electric kettle, and Nespresso machine. The bathroom has a shower and a washing machine for added convenience. Everyday shopping is easy, with a large Monoprix about 10 minutes away, a Franprix near Marcadet-Poissonniers 5 minutes away, and a well-stocked Super U on rue Custine 9 minutes on foot. The neighborhood also offers excellent bakeries, specialty cheese, wine, and charcuterie shops on and around rue Ordener, independent bookstores (including Joseph Gibert, Le Pied à Terre, and La Régulière), and charming public parks such as Square Léon, the Jardin des Arènes de Montmartre, and Parc de la Turlure. Metro stations Château-Rouge (Line 4) and Marcadet–Poissonniers (Lines 4 and 12) are nearby, providing access to central Paris (Châtelet) in under 20 minutes, Montparnasse in 30 minutes, and the Gare de Lyon in 22 minutes (RER D from Gare du Nord). Orly Airport is reachable in about 50 minutes via RER C, and Charles de Gaulle in approximately 40 minutes via RER B (from Gare du Nord). The apartment is also very well connected to major universities, research centers, and libraries across Paris. Travel times by metro are typically 20-35 minutes to the Sorbonne/Panthéon (Paris I, III and IV), the EHESS and the EPHE, and Sciences Po. Key research libraries are equally accessible, including the Bibliothèque Nationale de France at Richelieu (20–25 minutes), the French National Archives in the Marais (around 20 minutes), and the Bibliothèque François-Mitterrand (approximately 35 minutes).
