Paris: mini guide to the 17th district

Paris’ 17th district, located in the north-west of the city, is both chic and cosmopolitan. These two opposing aspects lend the place a distinct charm and vibrancy, making it a great place to live on a daily basis.


Wagram-Ternes neighbourhood

The Wagram-Ternes neighbourhood, which extends beyond the Champs-Elysées, is the most affluent part of the 17th district.


A quiet setting

When you buy a flat in Wagram-Ternes, you can be sure you’re going to be living in a quiet neighbourhood. However, the area does also have a real community vibe, particularly around place des Ternes.


What kind of properties can you buy in Wagram-Ternes?

In the Wagram-Ternes neighbourhood, the spotlight is very much on Haussmann architecture. If you’re looking for a flat that can offer the “holy trinity” of high-end real estate i.e. fireplaces, mouldings and old parquet flooring, then you’re in the right place. Another significant advantage is that it is still possible to buy huge flats.

A genuine village feel

What kind of properties can you buy in Batignolles?

Whether it’s flats in plush, Haussmann buildings or top-floor, split-level loft-style apartments with terraces, there is something for all tastes in Batignolles.
