Fontaine de Mars

Perched atop a handsome 19th-century Haussmannian building, the Fontaine de Mars is what Parisian dreams are made of. This spectacular two-bedroom apartment is full of light from the impressive 6 sets of French doors that open to a large wrap-around balcony where you can sip your morning café or marvel at the twinkling lights of Madame Eiffel at night. Overlooking the charming rue Saint-Dominique in the 7th arrondissement, this fractional co-ownership apartment has been exquisitely decorated so you can relax in the beautifully appointed interiors and savor that unforgettable feeling of being surrounded by Parisian beauty every moment of your stay.

BEAUTIFULLY DESIGNED CUSTOM DECOR

Every one of our fractional co-ownership properties is custom designed to be a comfortable, stylish, and one-of-kind home in Paris. For Fontaine de Mars, this started with a complete renovation to add every detail needed to create a comfortable Parisian retreat, including central air conditioning for warmer summer days and triple pane glass windows for peace and quiet right in the heart of Paris. From the moment you step inside, you’ll be greeted by beautiful light illuminating the spacious open plan living room with a dining area and crisp white, modern kitchen. With windows on three sides, the space is a perfect blend of design—by the fabulously talented Ann Huff of Huff Harrington—and captivating Paris views.

Fontaine de Mars features two luxurious bedrooms – each one with a stunning view of the Eiffel Tower. Every element was hand-picked, from the artwork and antiques down to the wallpaper and linens. Two beautiful bathrooms, two additional half bathrooms, and separate washer and dryer laundry facilities make this an extremely comfortable apartment in every way. Keeping the needs of a modern lifestyle in mind, there are two work spaces and high-speed internet for remote working.

If you’re familiar with Parisian buildings, you’ll know finding a balcony is rare. Finding a wrap-around balcony with views of the Eiffel Tower is exceptional! Traditional Haussmannian buildings generally only have balconies on one level, which is the most coveted floor. This is where you’ll find Fontaine de Mars. There is nothing that compares to waking up to see the Eiffel Tower soaring above or catching the sparkling lights at night. Simple experiences like having a glass of wine on the balcony with picture-perfect Parisian views will quickly become your favorite moments of the day.

FRACTIONAL/SHARED OWNERSHIP:

Our Fractional Co-Ownership Program began in 2018 when we sold our first one-bedroom fractional apartment very quickly – within a month! Since then our waiting list of interested buyers has continued to grow. We are proud of the success of our concept and how it has allowed so many buyers to enjoy the beauty of living in Paris without any of the hassles. If you’ve always dreamed of living in Paris but aren’t able to live there year-round, our co-ownership program is perfect for you!

Fontaine de Mars is divided into 13 ownership shares, which includes four weeks each year for every buyer. This is NOT a timeshare property nor vacation club. You physically own part of the apartment, meaning you participate in the real estate value of the apartment. Your shares are fully deeded and can be sold or passed on to loved ones.

HASSLE-FREE OWNERSHIP IN THE MOST BEAUTIFUL CITY IN THE WORLD

The idea of fractional or shared ownership was launched in the United States with substantial success. Thanks to the Internet, many owners can live and work in their favorite places for part of each year. They increasingly want to spend time in a favorite location, such as Paris, and in their own home – without the hassles and expense of full ownership of a second or third home.

It was a natural fit for Paris Perfect, a company that has been remodeling and managing apartments in Europe for decades. We are uniquely able to offer a second home in Paris, carefully managed and maintained at a reasonable cost. In fact, we’ve done the cost comparable research. Just take a look at our price comparison presentation to see for yourself.

It's all in the details and every element is hand-picked to create a beautiful home.

This remarkable property is named after the historic Fontaine de Mars on rue Saint-Dominique, which you can see just below from the beautiful balcony. Learn more about the fascinating history of this 19th-century fountain with a mini history lesson from Paris Perfect owner Madelyn.
