Haussmannian Heights, by Veeve

High up on the top floor of a timelessly Hausmannian residential building, this south-facing two-bedroom home pays homage to classic Parisian living. With its baroque décor and large, sunny terrace, immerse yourself in natural light and elegance in the 8th arrondissement.

LIVING & DINING AREA
A vibrant palette of reds and pinks are in full force in the living room, where ornate soft furnishings and décor abound: an expansive gilded mirror, an elaborate mantel clock, several elegant pink armchairs – all are in attendance here. Anchored by a beautiful Persian rug and illuminated by the full-height window, this room offers the perfect opportunity to lounge in style. Access the expansive terrace from here, featuring a small table perfect for a morning coffee and people-watching from on high.

KITCHEN & DINING AREA
In an example of the French reverence for efficient cooking in functional spaces, this space eschews grandiosity for practicality. Timber countertops and cream cabinetry is the name of the game in this kitchen – which is well-stocked with all the essential amenities. The dining area adjoins the kitchen, a quaint, sunlit space with room for six diners.

BEDROOMS
Immediately neighbouring the dining table is the entrance to the principal bedroom. With two large windows with fifth-floor views over the rooftops of Paris, this room comes with a double bed and a TV opposite – perfect for lazy movie nights. A second bedroom is similarly sun-filled and features a single trundle bed that converts to a queen.

BATHROOMS
Accessible from both bedrooms, the primary bathroom is clean and sleek in white tiles interspersed with images of wildflowers. This space offers a walk-in shower and a wash basin, while a separate WC features a toilet and wash basin.

WE LOVE
