With golden parquet floors, marble fireplaces and French doors that open on to balconies just wide enough to enjoy a coffee or a glass of wine while perching on a bistro chair, this two-bedroom apartment has everything that we have come to associate with Parisian chic. It occupies the fifth floor and attic of a handsome stone building designed by the great French architect Georges-Eugène Haussmann.
