Nea Smyrni Park (Alsos) is a large green oasis with pine and cypress trees, appealing to families and those seeking outdoor exercise. Just 5 minutes away are two of Athens’ most dynamic cultural venues: the Onassis Cultural Centre and the Stavros Niarchos Cultural Center, which houses the Greek National Opera and the National Library of Greece.
Accessibility: Easy and regular access to the city center by tram, buses and metro. The airport is just 45 minutes away, while the port of Piraeus is 20 minutes away.
Investment potential: Nea Smyrni is a revitalized and up-and-coming neighborhood whose value is expected to continue increasing.
