Country house style meets minimalist chic in this 3 bedroom duplex in the centre of Paris. Exposed beams and brick floors make the living space feel homely, whilst the sleek kitchen and bathrooms make sure the creature comforts don't go amiss. Perhaps the real selling point for me was the spacious terrace areas, equipped for sunbathing and al fresco dinners, which would suit a group of friends looking to socialise at home - although bare in mind with the maximum occupancy of 8 guests I can imagine the home will start to feel pretty cosy. Home truths: *Be aware - the ceilings in this home are relatively low *The top floor bedroom is not as well equipped as the others here - with no blackout blinds, no storage and no proper door - so if you're looking for more privacy you may want to look elsewhere *Although this home can sleep 6 - 2 guests will be on a double sofa bed in the third room * Be aware that the lift takes you to the fifth floor but you'll have to climb a final flight of stairs to reach the entrance
