APARTMENT ON THE ILE SAINT LOUIS. Come and enjoy the Paris Indian Summer on the beautiful Ile St Louis. Charming atelier-like apartment for rent anytime between August 12 and September 9 (or later in the fall by arrangement). It's a 17th century (converted bakery!) apartment on the central (and coveted) Ile St Louis. A quiet and friendly little village in itself, right in the heart of historic Paris. The apartment has thick stone walls, skylights, and the traditional wood beam ceiling. It's rez de chaussée (ground floor) so there are no pesky stairs to climb. The apartment is large at 60 square meters with one main room that includes the dining area, living room (sunken) and bedroom (raised); a jardin d'hiver (winter garden), and a separate study with windows facing the street (rue St Louis en l'Ile). The bed is a double bed and the living-room sofa also converts to a futon bed. The sofa in the study also converts to a bed. The kitchen is fully equipped with oven, gas range, and microwave, as well as a washer and fridge. The bathroom was recently remodeled and has a shower, plenty of cupboard space, as well as a heated towel rack. You'll have TV (with French channels as well as BBC, Sky News, and CNN), DVD/CD player, wifi connection, and a library of guide books, CDs, and DVDs. What I like best about the island is how central it is and how wonderful it is to come home in the evening across one of its many bridges. There is almost always a street musician on the bridge to add beauty to your day. Plus a great open market close by on Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays.

DREAM OF OWNING A PLACE IN FRANCE? Look no further! I research and buy wonderful old properties in France in order to provide a home base for people who love the idea of their own place but prefer to share the on-going expenses among 6 or more members. It only makes sense! New home shares available in 2006 include Paris and the south of France. For more information, contact Ginny at bkwll@centurytel.net or visit http://www.frenchpropertyshares.com
