Bastion in Bastille

A close-up view of the bustling Place de la Bastille with the July Column at its centre is the standout feature of this two-bedroom apartment, but it’s by no means the only highlight. Situated in the 11th arrondissement, the home’s interior captures the sophisticated atmosphere of the area while offering touches of contemporary design. LIVING ROOM Set in the corner of the classically Haussmannian building, the full-height windows in the living room offer views to the tree-lined Boulevard Beaumarchais on one side and Place de la Bastille on the other. Inside, a mix of modern and classical furnishings sit among several beautiful portraits hanging on the wall. KITCHEN & DINING AREA The kitchen is an oasis of clean simplicity, with smooth white cabinetry and bursts of green hues breaking up the neutrals. And never fear: you’ll find all the amenities you’ll need in here to cook your favourite French recipes. In the adjoining room is the formal dining room, a warm, comforting space with parquet floors, plentiful natural light and an oval dining table with room for four. BEDROOMS Walk into the principal bedroom and admire the gorgeous timber bedframe cradling a double bed in the centre of the room. More intriguing portraits dot the walls in here, where you’ll also find a large wardrobe and a chest of drawers. The second bedroom is defined by its vibrant geometric wallpaper in hues of green and white, against which another double bed sits next to a desk. BATHROOMS The primary bathroom is spacious and airy, with a large modern wash basin sitting opposite a bath with overhead shower. The intimate second bathroom features geometric flooring and offers a shower, toilet and wash basin.
