Description Noguchi Penthouse: Paris

At the crossroads between the exclusive 1st and 2nd arrondissements, this two-bedroom family home is a stone's throw away from the grand Place Vendôme and Tuileries Gardens. With a sober mid-century flair, it has the bones of a Parisian penthouse: angled ceilings and exposed white beams that divide the living and dining spaces. A twin bedroom makes it ideal for a family and although there is no TV, an exhaustive book library and a piano should keep everyone entertained.

Home truths:
*This host cannot take bookings further than a few weeks in advance – please contact us to discuss any bookings for later in the year

* Although open plan, the kitchen unit is in itself quite small so may not suit those who enjoy lots of cooking space

* This home is located on the fourth floor with no elevator so be prepared to climb flights of stairs
