Double Height Delight, by Veeve

In a city where large windows are often taken for granted, this two-bedroom duplex apartment brings new meaning to the concept. Set across two storeys, this home’s double-height ceiling and accompanying windows make it a true standout in the sought-after 17th arrondissement.

LIVING AND DINING AREA
The home’s pièce de resistance is its living room, with its ceilings that stretch up to the heavens and seem to go on forever – an effect that is accentuated by the ornate chandelier dangling from a metres-long chain. The gigantic New York loft-style windows match the scale of the ceiling height, drenching the space in natural light and making it feel even more wide-open. It’s also filled with colour and character: four Persian rugs drape the wooden flooring, vibrant paintings grace the walls, and intricately patterned curtains and sofas introduce a playful sensibility. A rustic dining table for four rounds out this outstanding space.

KITCHEN
Modern with hues of light grey and a robust marble countertop, this kitchen is pristine and practical. Stocked with all the amenities you’d need to whip up your favourite meal, you’ll be dining like a Parisian in no time.

BEDROOMS
The two bedrooms are separated by floors: the principal is located on the upper storey, at the end of a staircase accessed from the living room. Anchored with a queen-size bed under a gorgeously detailed rug hanging from the wall, this bedroom offers a chest of drawers topped with a large mirror, bedside tables and several shelves replete with nicknacks. The second bedroom is located on the lower floor and features a queen bed, a small Persian rug and a bedside table with a lamp.

BATHROOMS
Each bedroom has its own en-suite bathroom: the bathroom accessed from the principal bedroom boasts a walk-in shower, double wash basin and a washing machine. The second bedroom’s en-suite bathroom is much smaller but makes use of the space well, offering a shower, wash basin and mirrored cabinet. Each floor in the home has its own separate WC with a toilet and wash basin.

WE LOVE
The double-height loft-style windows and the astoundingly high ceiling in the living room, give the impression you’re in an artist’s abode in uptown Manhattan.
