In the heart of the city's most prestigious suburb, this impressive villa
measures 1,031 sq.m in total and is set in beautifully landscaped gardens of
2,902 sq.m. Built in the 1920s and ideal for entertaining on a grand scale,
the house exudes elegance and prestige with high ceilings and intricate
decorative details. It includes superb reception areas with living and
sitting rooms, a study with fireplace, a banquet room, a formal dining room,
a fully-equipped kitchen with breakfast room, a guest wc, a master bedroom
suite, four guest bedrooms with several walk-in closets, and an independent
pool house which is currently used as an artist's studio but may be
transformed into an extra bedroom suite. The main living areas open onto the
gardens which are a lush oasis with mature trees and a lovely 19-meter
swimming pool circled by terraces. Other features include hand-carved oak
panelling from the Château de Chantilly, a geometric design marble floor in
the entrance hall, hand-carved oak doors with Louis XVI-style gilding, an
oak staircase, an elegant banquet room which can sit up to sixty people for
dinner, marble columns in the garden, and on the main terrace a carved
marble balcony made in 1893 for the neoclassical mansion which is now the
French Embassy in Athens. There is also an elevator, a second service
staircase leading to staff quarters, and a parking area for up to 5 cars.
The land plot is ideally located on a corner and facing onto a park. It has
a building factor of 0.60 allowing for the current structure to be extended
another 900 sq.m. This is a very rare opportunity to acquire one of the
crown jewels of Athens.
