Part of the joy of Paris is the abundance of hidden gems that you'll stumble across during your stay. And this stylish, three-bedroom apartment is tucked away in one of the best of them — namely, the charmingly old-world village of Butte-aux-Cailles; a little hilltop enclave in the city's otherwise ultra-hip 13th. With cobbled streets brimming with Art Nouveau villas and quirky cafes, you can enjoy the best of a quieter local life alongside the bustle of Paris's Chinatown district and the dynamic Place d'Italie — accompanied by its well-connected Metro Station.
LIVING ROOM
A slick, minimalist aesthetic is enhanced by sweeping windows and crisp tones. There's plenty of room in the seating area, with its cluster of sleek, leather sofas bathed in natural light making a supremely serene spot to relax in; whilst on the opposite side, you can enjoy many a home-cooked meal at the dining table.
KITCHEN
Glossy, silver-grey surfaces reflect the light through another generously-sized window in this swish, modern kitchen. Fitted with all the essentials, there's even a little breakfast to perch at whilst you sip that first morning coffee.

We love...
The sheer amount of windows, which not only illuminate this apartment but also allow you to gaze upon the quaint rooftops and impressive nineteenth-century architecture that surrounds you. The street itself is also charmingly typical of the Butte-aux-Cailles neighbourhood, with its picture-postcard cobbles, leafy garden square and corner cafe — all of which afford a little welcome tranquility during your stay.
Home truths:
No smoking, pets or parties! This apartment is on the 3rd floor with a lift available. As much as we love those sweeping windows, you'll be pleased to know they all come with blinds and shutters.
Please note, Veeve homes are lived-in homes, which we think adds to their charm! Guests should, however, expect to find homeowner belongings and personal items within the property.
