It was the scene of her rather tempestuous third marriage to the playboy Gunter Sachs.
And now Brigitte Bardot’s Art Nouveau apartment is back on the market once again for the hefty price of £5.1million (€6.1million).
But it’s not hard to see why the home once inhabited by the famous French actress and her then husband will set someone back so much – it is the definition of opulence.
Dining in style: Brigitte Bardot's former Parisian apartment has gone on the market for 6.1 million euros
Let's dance: The flat features an oval shaped, glass-roofed discothèque
Party time: It also features a place to play billiards, where Brigitte no doubt kicked back
Coming up for sale through LuxuryEstate.com, the property which was built in in 1902, is located in the 16th arrondissement of Paris.
Featuring three bedroom/bathroom suites it’s the ideal location for a love affair in the French capital.
The house appears to be full to the brim with marble – from the floors to pillars creating a very expensive feel.
In happy times: Brigitte lived in the property during her three-year marriage to Gunter Sachs between 1966-69
Star quality: It was where one of the world's biggest sex symbols lived for three years
When the weather is nice the property owner can sit for hours in the beautiful inner city courtyard garden.
But it’s when night falls that the apartment really comes alive as it features a large Billiards room, which has no doubt seen a lot over the years.
And the Pièce de résistance is the oval shaped, glass-roofed discothèque, which was inspired by the iconic Chez Régine club in Paris.
Opulent: The house is decorated in a very dramatic style with deep red walls and plenty of gold
Recline in style: The apartment also features a number of marble pillars creating a very luxurious effect
Mod cons: The flat no doubt has been updated since the actress lived there as the kitchen seems very modern
Brigitte, who starred in And God Created Woman, married German millionaire Gunter in 1966.
Gunter famously seduced her by dropping hundreds of red roses over her beach house in St Tropez from his helicopter before diving into the sea and swimming ashore.
However just three years later the love affair was over following a series of affairs on both sides and they divorced in 1969, while remaining friends.
Bad memories: While living in the house both Brigitte and Gunter had a number of affairs
Lounge: The living room area is directed in a glamorous yet cosy fashion
One of her many lovers over this period included Serge Gainsbourg, with whom she recorded the first version of Je t'aime... moi non plus’.
The song however was not released due to Sach’s fury over the heavy breathing and erotic lyrics and eventually it was rerecorded with Jane Birkin.
A breath of fresh air: There is also a courtyard area where one can go and sit on warm evenings
Summer days: Brigitte and her then husband no doubt spent time enjoying the weather on the deck
Activist: These days Brigitte,79,, pictured here in 2007, works as an animal rights activist
