Appartements haussmanniens dans le 17e parisien, des écrins résidentiels

The 17th arrondissement is a little-known district, yet it is prized for the quality of life, the richness of its architecture and the intimacy it offers. In fact, this district with its Haussmann-style architecture has a real added value, rich in its dead ends, its passages but also its flower-filled towns. The clientele is made up of couples, families and also personalities looking for a space closer to nature. Close to chic suburbs such as Neuilly-sur-Seine or Levallois-Perret, the 17th arrondissement offers the possibility of being close to the capital while having the impression of living in a quiet suburb.

Many districts are popular, such as Ternes, Villiers, Malesherbes, Pereire or the great plain of Monceau, where many private mansions attract a wealthy clientele. These high-end districts are precious jewels, rich in their location and the Haussmann-style architecture of the buildings, which gives a real cachet to the space.

Today, it is the home of many public figures such as former Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin but also humorists such as Gad Elmaleh, Franck Dubosc or Elie Semoun but also artists such as record jockeys David Guetta or Martin Solveig.
