Vacation Rental Description

'La Parisienne', on the fourth floor with a lift, is a one-bedroom 43 
square meter apartment designed by an Italian architect with the décor 
chosen by one of Australia's top interior designers. 
 
Apartments overlooking parks are rare in Paris and the window above 
this one lets in loads of sun all year round. You can just see the top 
of the Eiffel Tower lit up on the hour at night and, if you lean out 
the window, Sacre Coeur is just up the hill. There is a fresh gourmet 
food market alongside the park on Fridays. 
 
Although located in the 9th, the apartment borders the 18th and is 
just a short walk away from the artistic heart of Paris, Montmartre, 
with it's fabulous designer clothes and jewellery shops. Moulin Rouge 
and the theatre district of Pigalle is one metro stop or five minutes 
walk away. 
 
There is also an open air tourist route bus stop almost outside the 
door, which takes you to every major tourist attraction in Paris, 
including the Louvre, Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, Seine, Arch de 
Triomphe, Pompidou Centre and other major art galleries and museums. 
 
Paris' art and theatre action is across the huge boulevarde on one end 
of the park, while the 9th arondissment itself has become the 
gentrified home of Parisian film makers and writers. It has trendy 
restaurants and the famous Rue des Martyrs and Rue Lepic has some of 
the best gourmet food shops in Paris. 
 
Anver metro is a stone's throw from the apartment and the Seine is a 
half hour walk if you get stuck there after the metro closes. 
 
Inside the apartment is spacious and elegant. Foldout leaves of the 
dining table make it comfortable for six. The Italian Marmarino 
bathroom with bath is luxurious and the gourmet kitchen inspires you 
to cook. 
 
The apartment is owned by best-selling Australian author Barbara 
Biggs, who often visits to write by the chair in front of the window. 
The spot where she wrote her third book, The Accidental Renovator: A 
Paris Story, which is about the apartment, it's renovation and the 
eccentric Parisians she met during 2004 when she lived in La 
Parisienne for seven months to renovate it. For more information see
