It was the dazzling views of the Acropolis that first caught our eye at this Attica district apartment. But it was the sleek, contemporary interiors that truly sealed the deal. Designed with socialising in mind, the living and dining spaces are spread across two floors, making the most of those sweeping city vistas at every turn. Set back from the buzz of the inner city, you’re still within easy walking distance of Plaka and the Acropolis itself. Although it’s just as easy to hop on the nearby Metro or Tram. Just be sure to make it home for sunset – best admired from that private Jacuzzi on your terrace.

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. In the narrow streets of the city, you’ll find Byzantine churches, adorned with ancient mosaics, tucked in between street food restaurants serving gyros wraps and bakeries serving spanakopita.
