Butte Montmartre

Perched on its hill, Montmartre and its basilica are the highlights of the capital. It offers a panoramic view and with its village air it charms the hearts of Parisians and passing tourists.

t has in fact lost none of its atmosphere which was so popular with artists of the 19th and 20th centuries: Toulouse-Lautrec, Dalida, Picasso, Modigliani, Barbara, etc. Its steep streets and long staircases, its colorful facades around the Place du Tertre and its vineyards immortalize the memory of the district’s rural past.

In terms of architecture, Montmartre has a lot to offer: artists’ studios, mansions, villas with gardens, apartments with terraces. While some residents have been living in Montmartre for a long time and would not move for the world, the district also attracts nostalgics and lovers of the picturesque. Some streets hide real pearls, such as Villa Léandre or the passage at number 45 rue Lepic.

Rather than large retailers, the district can boast of having retained its small food shops and a wide choice of restaurants, bars and performance venues. Enough to perfect the postcard image!

Ternes

Located in the heart of the 17th arrondissement, the Ternes district seems oriented in all directions.

At the gates of Paris and not far from the Place de l’Etoile, it is a strategic and heterogeneous crossroads but also one of the most elegant areas of Paris with its many Haussmann buildings.

Both upscale and friendly, the streets are very lively, thanks in particular to the proximity of the markets, such as the flower market on Place des Ternes or the covered market on Rue Lebon. Many food shops, bistros and small restaurants share a clientele of regulars.

The Ternes district enjoys direct access to La Défense and the roads leading to Normandy. A stone’s throw from the Bois de Boulogne for lovers of long walks, local residents can also enjoy the Pereire promenade, an old railway line transformed into a flowered area including a magnificent rose garden. Or the nearby Parc Monceau!

It is a neighborhood where life is good, which has managed to maintain a good-natured atmosphere and which appeals to an active population of young couples, families and retirees.

Plaine-Monceau

Charming, cultural and vegetal, the Plaine-Monceau district presents itself as an ideal place to live located halfway between Batignolles and Ternes.

Marked by its graceful architecture, the Plaine-Monceau district is considered one of the most attractive in the city. You can admire unusual and colorful mansions, with extravagant styles, but also pretty little houses with facades decorated with brick and stone.

A former district of artists, Plaine-Monceau has many museums, delighting art lovers. We particularly appreciate the Jean-Jacques Henner museum which exhibits, in a very beautiful private mansion, the prolific work of the artist.

Also, its proximity to the enchanting Parc Monceau, offers its residents the opportunity for beautiful walks in the shade of the willows and to the sound of the stream.
