Pietro Marino
rue des Martyrs, 75018 Paris

Pietro has an innate sense of design and style like most Italians.

His 70m2 flat with views on the Sacré Coeur Basilica has a masculine quality in its purity of lines and minimalist decorum.

The dark brown solid oak parquet is setting the tone for the color harmony of this light-flooded space with triple East-West-North exposure.

You feel like setting a ballerina's foot on the vast floor (mirror-glazed with 8 coats of varnish) and pirouette from the generous brocate-lined windows of the living room to the Sacré Coeur views of the bedroom.

The apartment has all the charm of its 19th century building with its wrought iron decorations while providing a counterpoint of contemporary design and the comfort of a modern home featuring a home cinema, lavish bath-tub and fully equipped kitchen. (Pietro is a gourmet cook).

There is ample storage and plenty of room for privacy. A separate bedroom and a convertible couch in the salon allow to comfortably sleep 4 persons.

When you sit at the bar of the 'cuisine Americaine' you have a full view of the Sacre Coeur Basilica which is even more stunning in its nightly illuminations giving an almost unreal 'coulisse' to a delicious French meal.

Pietro is also an associate of one of the best Italian restaurants in town, just around the corner, 'Il Pomodoro', so when you're tired of cooking you can have a perfect meal there or a take-away pizza (the best in town) to eat in the Franco-Italian universe of Pietro's apartment.

The studio features artworks of contemporary French artists.

No smoking inside the apartment, and no Pets please.
