Description
Embrace ownership of a property destined to become a chapter in modern history, an impressive building spanning 2,450 square meters, positioned in front of the globally renowned Acropolis.
Revel in an unobstructed view of the Parthenon from the ground floor, an experience that evolves as you ascend, drawing you closer to Zeus and the revered Goddess Athena. This grand Megaron, standing proudly across seven levels, graces Athens' premier pedestrian street, offering an unparalleled location.
The property comprises two ground-floor commercial units, of incalculable value, seamlessly interconnected through a basement where Roman mosaics and ancient Greek ruins are preserved and showcased beneath protective glass floors. Upon crossing a stately entrance and stepping onto luxurious marble floors, one enters the residential realm of the property.
From the first to the fifth floor, nine meticulously crafted apartments, adorned with marble and wood, unfold—each one offering the finest panoramic views of the city. The culmination of this architectural masterpiece is the top floor and the roof garden that provides an eye-level encounter with the Parthenon and a neighboring feeling of the Dionysos Theatre and the Herodion being practically on the same slope.
The view extends to the charming rooftops of Plaka, the iconic Lycabettus and Filopappou hills, the vast National Garden, and the blue expanse of the sea.
This property is ready to shape its own story, serving as the meeting place for global figures, a rejuvenating retreat or potentially evolving into a members club, a gallery, or a museum.
The building is offered with a neighboring plot of 720 buildable sqm suitable for parking.
