The Onyx Edit, by Veeve

They say if something's worth doing, it's worth doing well — and we reckon monochrome contrasts are always worth doing; and that this home does them expertly well. Well suited to families, this sleek studio apartment boasts vast, light-filled ceilings and modernist design that reflects the quintessential cool of Paris’s 20th arrondissement. Thrumming with modern culture, from art galleries to live music venues, you'll also be just a short walk from the famed Père Lachaise Cemetery — resting place of eclectic A-listers like Oscar Wilde and Jim Morrison.

GROUND FLOOR

LIVING ROOM & KITCHEN
The open-plan, double-height living and dining room is a superbly serene space to relax in. Onyx accents can be found throughout — from the striking fireplace to the exquisite marble coffee table, and, of course, that masterfully complimentary matt-black kitchen cabinetry. Whether you want to unwind on a cushy sofa at the end of a day's exploring or gather round the table for a delectable family dinner, this room has everything you'll need.

PRINCIPAL BEDROOM
Soft tones are enlivened by pops of colour and warm wood. There's a Queen-sized bed and classic Juliet window overlooking the courtyard.

SECOND BEDROOM
A simple, pared-back aesthetic with a single bed.

BATHROOM
Bathrooms the world over could learn a lesson from this one. It may be compact, but it's got everything you need — including swankiness, with those slick, Terrazzo surfaces and that smooth, stand-alone bath. There's also a shower and curtain, along with an equally fetching marble stone wash basin.

NURSERY
An adorable baby's bedroom, complete with cot and changing table.

FIRST FLOOR

THIRD BEDROOM
That trademark eye for design extends upstairs too, with a striking floating staircase to the mezzanine. This double bedroom looks fresh as a daisy with its gleaming white interiors, welcome skylight, and minimalist style. There's even a little study spot, with a desk and chair in meticulously matched tones.

WC

We love...
This home manages to be both ultra chic and family friendly. Young children are welcome thanks to the stair gate and that delightful little nursery, while adults can relish those architectural features and onyx flourishes that elevate this home to new heights of sophistication.

**To rent this property, the minimum age requirement is 25 years old.**

Home Truths:
