This newly renovated three-bedroom duplex apartment with big views of the Eiffel Tower has been given a thoroughly contemporary look inside, with white walls, ceilings and cabinetry combined with pale wood flooring to create a light, spacious home livened up with soft furnishings in bold colours. It features an artist’s studio-style living room with a full-height picture window and a glass ceiling, and a large open-plan kitchen with dining area. All three bedrooms are en suite and there is a studio apartment for sale on the same floor, as well. Located in the Seventh Arrondissement, the property is close to the Musée d’Orsay and numerous other culture spots.

Wow factor: Having the Eiffel Tower on your doorstep. Few structures tell you where you are in the world more clearly than the Eiffel Tower. € 3.29 million
