Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
There are many reasons to love this stunning apartment, but the biggest is its location right in the heart of Athens. Your neighbour is Kapnikarea Church, said to be the oldest in the city, and the Acropolis is just a twelve-minute walk away. Whether you want to sample Grecian wine at the bars and fine dining eateries in Plaka, do some shopping on Ermou Street or roam the celebrated Monastiraki Antique Market, you'll be well-placed to discover Athen's many treasures. Back at home, step onto the balcony and gaze out at the Acropolis, lit up like a beacon in the night. Head inside for dinner and drinks at the dining table, then get cosy in the sumptuous bedrooms for a good night's sleep. This building was constructed in the 19th-century and we love the details harking back to that period, like the sky-high ceilings and panelled walls. With crisp white hues, glossy bathrooms and lavish rainfall showers, there's no denying that this apartment is a winner.
