Occupying the fourth floor of a 1960s building, the 250 sq.m. apartment retains much of the character and scale associated with homes of its era. Expansive reception rooms flow from one to another, with parquet flooring, high ceilings and wide openings creating an impressive sense of space. A marble fireplace provides an elegant focal point, while a beautifully fitted library lined with dark timber bookcases gives the apartment a particularly distinctive character. The main living areas are both generous and versatile, encompassing a large sitting room, separate dining room and additional informal living spaces. Tall windows and glazed doors bring natural light deep into the interiors, while the apartment’s corner orientation provides different outlooks across the surrounding neighbourhood. Perhaps Itria’s most memorable feature is the view. From the balcony, Athens unfolds towards the Acropolis, its illuminated monuments creating an especially striking outlook after dark and a wonderful connection with the city. With its generous proportions, original character and remarkable Acropolis outlook, Itria offers an opportunity to create a highly individual home in the heart of Athens. The apartment has four bedrooms and three bathrooms, together with a generously sized kitchen and considerable built-in storage. Its existing interiors reflect the period and provide an excellent foundation for renovation, offering the opportunity to introduce a more contemporary aesthetic while retaining the proportions and architectural details that give the home its character. Balconies extend the living space outdoors, with views across the surrounding rooftops and towards the greenery of the neighbouring park. Combined with its south-facing and east-facing corner orientation, they reinforce the sense of light and openness found throughout the apartment. Itria is well placed for enjoying the cultural and everyday life of central Athens. The National Gallery, Panathenaic Stadium and Syntagma Square are all within walking distance, while Pangrati’s restaurants, cafés and galleries contribute to the neighbourhood’s lively, distinctly Athenian character.
