An apartment for 1001 nights: 780 square meters on three floors (including the attic), located in the heart of the chicest district of Paris, the 16th, and on whose terrace overlooking the Eiffel Tower none other than Alain Delon and Romy Schneider spent endless romantic evenings in the early 60s. Cost: 46 million euros.
This is the astronomical figure asked of anyone wishing to retrace the footsteps of the golden couple of French cinema: 60 euros per square metre, an absolute record for the expensive Ville Lumiere. The luxurious "triplex" (as the French call three-story apartments), which overlooks the Seine, is located to be precise at number 42 Avenue du Président Kennedy, in the most fashionable area of the city.
Inside a 1933 building, the most expensive property in Paris has six bedrooms (plus a service room), six bathrooms, a professional kitchen, a gym, a sauna, a hammam, as well as three cellars and two parking spaces. The seventh floor (the apartment extends up to the ninth) is the most prestigious, with two suites and an elegant studio decorated in a modern style. But the real show is on the top floor: 375 square meters of terrace all with a view of the Eiffel Tower, bien sur.
All these sumptuous details, together with the added value of the two famous former tenants, led to the all-time record. From which, however, he had not gone far, in 2010, the Hotel Bourbon-Condé, in the seventh arrondissement: 1.250 m68,5 sold to the royal family of Bahrain for 55 million, or XNUMX euros per square metre.
Also this time, we can swear, the luxury apartment will end up in foreign hands. Russians or Arabs, but certainly foreigners. And maybe, why not, fans of French cinema.
