SPECIAL EDITION: Four Properties to Rent or Purchase…All American-Owned!

For those of you wanting a stay of three or more months, you should know that some of our finest short-term vacation rental apartments are going “long-term.” We’re sad to see them go from our list of luxury vacation apartments, but this could be a bonus for you…that is, if you are seeking accommodations longer term — three months or more.

Two that are currently available for immediate occupancy are:

1) Our impeccable “Luxe d’Argent,” a modern jewel of a one-bedroom in the trendy 3rd Arrondissement (Le Haut Marais) at under 2,000€ per month. If you can make Paris your primary residence, but only can stay six months per year, special discount arrangements are possible! To learn more about the apartment and get a firm rental quote, visit Le Luxe d’Argent or contact  [email protected]

2) “Le Mabillon” is a big studio apartment in the heart of Saint-Germain-des-Prés that has been completely restored and renovated snf is now available for rent long-term at about 1,500€ per month. The common areas boast exposed stone walls and centuries old beams, beautifully illuminated with modern lighting. The anachronistic, modern glass elevator juxtaposes rather well with older parts of the building and waits to take you up to your Paris home.

In addition to the apartments for rent, two properties for sale are worth noting — one has had a VERY BIG PRICE reduction!

1) Le Mas du Cornud in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence has been reduced in price from €2,150,000 to 1,690,000€ (unfurnished, agency fees included). That is more than a 20% reduction and is the lowest the seller is willing to go! This is a rare opportunity for the buyer seeking the ideal residence and/or revenue-producing property. Spacious and beautifully restored, this 19th-century Provençal mas, a traditional farmhouse with a guest house, pool house and professional kitchen, has total of 9 bedrooms and 9 baths, is set on a half-hectare (1.25 acres) terrain of shade trees, lawn and garden, with a lap-length pool, fully equipped summer kitchen and many other features reflecting a tasteful restoration using quality materials. An extensive sales portfolio with an abundance of information on the amenities, physical layout and operational aspects of Mas de Cornud is available on request to seriously interested buyers.

2) Well-located on one of Paris’ best market streets, steps from the Métro, RER and bus lines, this pristine, updated one-bedroom apartment is move-in ready. The apartment is on the first floor, with elevator, of a well-maintained 19th-century building and has recently been repainted to look fresh and clean. The entry is on rue Daguerre, but the three large windows of the apartment overlook the quiet side street.

The living/dining room with a window comes with a sofabed, armchair, dining table with four chairs, a small desk and television with stand. The door to this room makes it an ideal additional sleeping space for guests. The bedroom is spacious, has a large window and an en-suite bath with shower, sink and vanity. The toilet is separate. Two single beds can be made into one king-size. An antique armoire and a chest of drawers provides ample storage. The bright kitchen with a window is equipped with cabinets, washer/dryer, microwave and two-burner stove.

All furnishings are included in the purchase price along with an 8m2 cellar. Rue Daguerre is home to many shops selling all of the delicacies that France is famous for. In addition, there is a full Monoprix supermarket on the corner. The apartment is ideal as a pied-à-terre for yourself and doubles as a perfect vacation rental. There is nothing to do, but unpack your bags. Ref.#026
