Location:

This neighborhood takes its name from the Sorbonne, where Latin was the common tongue for all students during the Middle Ages. The neighborhood has the feel of a small village and students mix freely with professionals in its winding streets. The rue Mouffetard is a primary artery where shops, international restaurants and student bars and cafés are found.

The banks of the Seine River, from the islands to the Latin Quarter, constitute the original historic centre of the city. Medieval buildings co-exist with crowds of lively young students and the welcome oases of public parks and gardens.

The 5th Arrondissement of Paris is one of the best known of the city's central districts, located on the Left Bank (Rive Gauche) of the river Seine. Also commonly known as the "Latin Quarter" (le quartier Latin) - so named because students from around the world at one time actually spoke Latin to one another here as their only common language - the 5th was also the core of ancient Gallo-Roman Paris, as revealed in a number of otherwise rare archaeological remains that can be seen within the district.

Description:

Among the pearl-grey zinc roofs of Paris, as if in flight between the Place St Michel on one side and Notre Dame's tower-tops on the other, sits this 2-bedroom penthouse filled with light and space. Samantha Brown of the Travel Channel's Passport to Europe even called this apartment "absolutely amazing" and "the quintessential fantasy Parisian apartment" when she visited (watch a clip here).

Whether traveling for business or for pleasure, your building's placement couldn't be better. This is the geographical and historical heart of the city, overlooking the banks of Isle de la Cite, about 10 minutes upstream from the Louvre, and at the congruence of Paris's bus, RER, and metro lines.
