It is a residence that perfectly combines the aristocratic character of a historic property with modern luxury, following a renovation of exceptional quality and refined aesthetics.
The listed building, originally constructed in 1908, is a distinguished example of Athenian neoclassical architecture. The residence was fully renovated in 2024, with the utmost respect for the building's historic identity and a strong emphasis on architectural integrity, premium craftsmanship, and timeless design. High-end materials, sophisticated architectural details, and carefully curated interior furnishings and décor create a truly unique living environment, where the property's historic character blends harmoniously with the comforts and elegance of contemporary living.

Every space has been thoughtfully designed with harmony, comfort and understated elegance in mind. The meticulously planned interior layout, refined decoration and exceptional quality of materials enhance the property's unique character, offering a living experience that meets the expectations of even the most discerning buyer.
