Do you have a question about this home or the local area?

This home, set in a stunning 18th-century neoclassical building dating from 1838, has an excellent location. You can stroll over to many of the city's iconic landmarks, such as the Syntagma and Monastiraki, the Acropolis and Plaka. There are an array of restaurants, cafes and bars nearby, too, which is convenient as this home only has a kitchenette. We love the small balcony, which is perfect for candlelit suppers. There's also a communal roof terrace with views over the Acropolis. This place makes a great Athens bolthole.

About Athens

It’s impossible to miss the Parthenon in Athens, rising up over the city and illuminated at night. For most, these preserved columned ruins are the epitome of the ancient world.
