Central Athens - a peaceful haven 15 min walk from the buzz of Syntagma

Description

This is a spacious 70 sq. m. 1-double-bedroom apartment (a second sleeping space with an extra single bed can be organized upon prior arrangement) in central Athens that was recently renovated throughout. It is located on the first floor of a small apartment building in a quiet and attractive street 15 minutes walk from Syntagma and from the historical district of Plaka. The neighbourhood is also 25 min walk from the American and British Archaeological Schools and the Gennadion Library, and close to public transport routes for reaching other key university and academic institutions in Athens. The Acropolis Museum and metro station are also within a short walking distance from the property. The neighbourhood is very friendly, and a popular residential area for artists and writers. Just a few meters from the flat there is a traditional grocery store/delicatessen and bakery, while there is plenty to choose from in the way of bistros, coffee shops, bars and family-run restaurants nearby. The apartment is fully furnished. The kitchen and bathroom have been fully upgraded with modern conveniences. The retro furnishings are in keeping with the early 1960s style of the building. The apartment has independent heating, air-conditioning and ceiling fans. Although located on the first floor the flat is nonetheless bright and airy, and its light, positive atmosphere and great location is what made its owners decide to renovate it with such care. Fast Wifi included. The terrace at the top of the building is an ideal place to survey the Athens cityscape and marvel at the Acropolis and the hum of this enervating, sizzling city that is both young and very, very old.
