I am renting a 646 sq. ft. flat (60 m2) in the town centre of Vincennes.

The Château de Vincennes metro station ( Line N°1) or the Vincennes RER (fast train - A line) station are three minutes away and will take you to the center of Paris (Châtelet station) in 10 minutes (RER) or 20 minutes (Metro). The Metro line N°1 is the automatic central line running through several main stations : Nation (8'), Gare de Lyon (12'), Bastille (14'), Hôtel de Ville (18'), Châtelet (20'), Musée du Louvre (24') Concorde (28'), Etoile (36'). The RER station is very convenient to go to the airports, to the Gare de Lyon or the Gare du Nord (Eurostar) which is less than 30 minutes away. This RER line also takes you to Disneyland.
A Velib’ station (3 min. away) will allow you to visit Paris on a bike.

This very quiet flat is on the first floor of a nineteenth century building. The windows open out onto a street (lounge facing south) and gardens (bedroom and kitchen facing north). In spring, you’ll probably be woken up in the morning by the many birds singing in the trees.

The flat is very close (3min.) to many good quality shops in Vincennes' town centre, to a typical outdoor French market (Tuesdays, Fridays and Sundays), to the Vincennes woods with its Floral gardens and lakes where you can rent a rowboat and the beautiful medieval Castle of Vincennes.

The flat has one bedroom with a large (1,60 X 2 m / 63 X 78 inches) four poster bed with a high quality mattress ; one large lounge with an extra bed for one person ; one eat-in kitchen ; one bathroom with a large bath and shower + hair dryer. There is a separated toilet with a wash basin.

The flat decoration has been carefully chosen, associating modern furniture (Le Corbusier and Marcel Breuer armchairs in the lounge, traditional Gatti bistro chairs in the kitchen, designed lightings fixtures…) and carefully restored antique furniture. The entrance hall, the bedroom and the lounge have kept their old and warm oak floor.

The kitchen has a gas stove, a microwave, an electric toaster, different types of coffee pots and machines (Bialetti, Bodum, filter machine & expresso) and an electric kettle.
The washing machine is in the bathroom + iron and iron board.
In the bedroom, you will find a large screen TV set (42” Sony Bravia) and a good quality hifi set in the lounge + CDs and DVDs.
A broadband internet connexion is provided.
Vacuum cleaner.
Linen and bed linen are provided. As well as the usual pillows, one neck-pillow is available.

You will not have to go shopping straight away when you arrive after your journey : basic food is stored in the cupboards (tea, coffee, sugar, oil, pasta, rice, salt and pepper etc)

There is a locked room on the ground floor where you can leave your bicycles.

I live in the same building so I can advise you or help you if you wish during your stay. I am half English and half French so we won't have any difficulty if you only speak English !

    Anthony was so helpful, with our bags, with explaining how the apartment worked, restaurant recommendations, etc. we were just a block and a few steps from the metro which went directly through all of Paris. Vincennes is like a village on the eastern edge of Paris. You have everything you need within easy walking distance.

    Anthony’s apartment is just as pictured. Charming, light, authentic and cool. It was clean and had everything one would want for a weeks stay…washer, functioning kitchen, and space to breathe. Our host was charming and so easy to contact. I will most definitely stay here again.

    Anthony's property is one of the best I have stayed and I have many times through VRBO. The apartment is extremely, clean, bright spacious and beautifully decorated. The property had all of things needed for a week long stay. Anthony is one of the most gracious and helpful people I have rented from. It is very close to the RER, the supermarket and many lovely shops. I had an incredible stay and will definitely return!

    We stayed at this location from june 4th to june 10th. A second floor, very comfortable and roomy appartment. Clean, with all amneties. Owner was on site at our arrival. A real plus. A nice welcoming. Location is ideal. Large and well provided grocery store within a 5 minute walk, as well as the ''Chateau Vincennes'' subway station and a train station taking you to the Charles de Gaule Int'l airport with only one transfer. The area is safe, and quiet. Good sleeping.! Nothing to worry about. Would be happy to return. Guy L'Heureux, from Montreal.

    Anthony's appartment is very nice, design et cosy, and very well equipped. Perfect for un long or short stay, for a couple. Anthony is very kind, open, an artist and discreet. The flat is in Vincennes downtown, near castle, subway, market...10 minutes from the center of Paris, but with Le Bois de Vincennes (Vincennes Wood).

    We loved this apartment. It was full of interesting things and we left with lots of ideas for our own home. The owner was very helpful and friendly and provided a folder full of very useful and helpful information. We also loved Vincennes and went to several of the restaurants recommended by the owner , we particularly recommend Restaurant La Rigadelle and Le Mediterranee, although they are both very different.. There are plenty of shops and lovely patisseries close by. There is also a great market. Getting into Paris was no problem and access to Euro Disney was straight forward. We would certainly stay again and would recommend to anybody who doesn't want to stay in the centre of Paris.

    Welcomed by the owner with a cup ot tea,a friendly and helpfull manner , calmed me after travelling since 4.30am.Everything in this enchanting apartment was home away from home from washing machine to cooking utensils to fantastic bath which I soaked in every night.Comfortable King size bed with tall french windows which opened up ànd allowed the night stillness to flow through and the mornings activities welcoming without being too noisy. I loved the fact that once I left the apartment it was only a short walk to caffes,patisseries,supermarket,fashion boutiques,the metro and railway station. 15mins by metro and you are in the heartbeat of Paris,15 mins you are back in the sanctuary of Vincenne- so easy if you have walked a thousand steps in the morning to go back to the apartment,relax and venture back into Paris early evening as I so often did. I didnt watchTV or a video but there was certainly a huge selection as well as CDs. I fell in love with the kitchen ,the view from the table was gorgeous, the soap arm in the laundrey intrigued me and I have now orderd one for my home in Australia. I so recommend this charming apartment, it was my home for the week and I really wished I could have packed it all up and bought it back to Australia with me. The owner, Anthony offered to walk me to the railway station and help me buy my ticket to CDG airport which I thought was so caring and he insisted on carrying my luggage down the flight of stairs. The apartment is a reflection of the owner, and once you have experienced its.comfort and charms,you will be drawn back to experience it all over again.!!!

    Wanting to come back to exactly this apartment that we found really nice at our last stay in Paris, we booked the place allready this summer when we planned our fall vacations. We found it just the way we left if and felt very much at home. (Great choice of DVDs if one should want to a little restful evening).The only difference was the pavement on the road and the newly planted trees, even better ! The evironment is just nice, the appartment is perfect, the owner helpfull - and so close to the center of Paris. We really recommend this adress. U Frantzen and M Violle

    This was my first stay and I was delighted with everything about the flat which felt like home-from-home in no time. It is quiet, spacious, everything was clean (and worked) and it is ideally located in the centre of Vincennes with Metro Line 1 and RER stations just a few minutes walk away giving access to anywhere one might wish to visit. The owner was very welcoming and accommodating and provided all the information I needed. Suffice to say that I shall return and would have no hesitation in recommending this property to friends and relatives. Thank you Anthony. Richard Yates Melbourne, Australia

    This quiet and spacious apartment was perfect for my month's stay in Paris. Delightful well equipped kitchen, comfortable bed and, with it's wooden floors and interesting furniture and paintings, the flat had lots of character. My host was charming and helpful, finding me a desk to work on when needed, and with his perfect english, gave me great suggestions on places to eat and visit. His cat Sassetta is very sweet too! Vincennes has great shops and market but isn't touristy and it's an easy hop into the city with both RER and metro nearby. I couldn't fault my stay and will certainly book this apartment again.
