Located in the shadow of Athens' iconic Acropolis, in a historic nineteenth-century building on one of the city's best-known shopping hotspots, this apartment offers unparalleled access to the city of the Violet Crown. Inside, the open-plan living area and kitchen is bathed in natural light thanks to the large windows. Painted in pristine white with a sky-high ceiling, the space manages to feel much larger than its footprint. Elsewhere, there are two en-suite bedrooms, plus an additional family bathroom decked out with luxurious marble. Down at street level, you'll find yourself on Ermou Street. At 1.5km long, it connects Syntagma Square with Karameikos and is pedestrianised from one end to the other. In addition to plenty of window shopping opportunities, the architecture is really quite beautiful and there are picturesque squares to explore and lots of cafes, bars and restaurants to keep you fuelled up throughout the day.
