The Psyrri neighbourhood of Athens is full of cute boutiques, quirky characters, and bustling bars. In its maze-like layout, where tiny cobbled streets intermingle with kerbside restaurants and wine spots, you’ll eventually end up at the market of Monastiraki Square. And just a short walk from this ancient square with a 10th-century church at its centre, history evolves into modernity as you arrive at your apartment. Fully renovated in 2018, this home offers penthouse-style, luxury living. In contrast to the colourful locale, trendy grey tones are the colour of choice inside. Then glass, matte black, and charcoal-coloured wooden floors create a muted, monochrome colour palette that allows for the main feature to stand out – the view. Step out from this modern, open-plan living space to your private terrace, where a stylish dining area and outdoor hot tub await. Serve up olives, bread, and Greek wine on the table before slipping into the bubbling waters with a glass of champagne in hand. The city twinkles for miles ahead of you, and the brightly-lit Acropolis of Athens stands out in this incredible, panoramic scene right on your doorstep.

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.
