A wonderful 55-square-meter pied-à-terre

Kolonaki is an upscale district, full of old-world charm and cosmopolitan glamour, right in the city centre, a mere stone’s throw from Syntagma Square and the historic districts of Plaka and the Acropolis. Unique features: Lined with cafes, restaurants, designer boutiques, theatres and book- stores, Kolonaki is as much a commercial hub as a creative one. This is where the cool and trendy shop, flaunt and people-watch. It is essentially Athens’ ‘Museum Mile’ with the Byzantine Museum, the Benaki Museum, the Cycladic Museum and the recently opened Goulandris Museum, located within a 1 km radius. Home to Athens’ literati and opinion-makers, Kolonaki has long been a coveted real-estate destination. Accessibility: Extremely well-connected by the metro, tram, bus services to the rest of Athens. The airport is 50 minutes to an hour away by express train and direct buses.
