Palaia Penteli is located northeast of the Athenian basin and extends to the southeastern foothills of Mount Penteli, 17 kilometers from the center of Athens.
Unique Characteristics: It is a green, quiet, and relatively sparsely populated middle-class area, with aesthetically exceptional single-family homes and maisonettes.
Plane trees and pines dominate the beautiful squares, which meet the clear, shady streams, giving the area a country feel, while also offering stunning views of the entire basin and the Saronic Gulf.
Traditional taverns and cafes, combined with the wonderful climate of the area, are a magnet for short excursions, while the National Observatory, the Penteli Monastery, and the Duchess Plakentia Mansion offer visits of scientific and historical interest.
Accessibility: It has easy access to the markets of Nea Penteli and Melissia, which together belong to the same municipality of Penteli.
It is 10 minutes from the Duchess Plakentia station, and only 25 minutes from Athens International Airport and the port of Rafina, which connects to most of the Cycladic islands, while the beautiful beaches of Nea Makri and Schinias are within easy reach.
Investment Potential: It is an ideal choice for a holiday home with good access and many possibilities for high investment returns.
