In the center of Thiseio, the most beautiful area on the foot of the Acropolis hill, stands out a 19th-century building comprising three admirable apartments.
THE SPACE
This 50 sq. m apartment is on the ground floor of a listed building, dating from 1892, and can host up to 5 guests. There are three large windows on the façade of the building and one that overlooks the building’s patio, a typical, beloved house feature of the time, traditionally situated in the center of the building. The living room-dining area is divided from the bedroom with a wooden four-leaf antique door. In the fully equipped kitchen, the window welcomes the morning sun. The indoor plants, the tasteful decorative touches, and the warm lighting create a relaxing atmosphere in the renovated bathroom. All outdoor spaces are communal and are to be enjoyed by all guests.
THE DECORATION
The warm and inviting décor and retro elements blend seamlessly in an entirely modern setting! In this historic apartment stand out the plaster adornment of the 19th century on the ceiling, the unique design of the king-size bed, and the pieces of embroidery boasting the contemporary art paintings, made by Varnavas. The oak floors, another feature of the historic structure of this building, have been nicely preserved. In the living room, the very first TV in the area, now impressive antique furniture, is reused as a TV table for a smart TV!
THE LOCATION
Choose to stay on the foot of the Acropolis hill in one of the architectural gems of the neighborhood, once home to a renowned bourgeois family. You are at the heart of Athens: just below the National Observatory, 2 minutes away from Thiseio tube station, and a 7-minute walk to Kerameikos tube station, just by Apostolou Pavlou pedestrian path. A secret apartment in apparent view!

Frequently asked questions for this offer
What happens after I make a reservation?
Once you send a reservation request, the landlord is notified that you are interested in their offer. From that moment, they have 24 hours to approve or reject your reservation.
Landlords are mainly interested in the profile of their tenant. Do not forget to fill in all necessary information, add your profile picture, or even make a short video about yourself. Doing that will make you more attractive for the owner and your reservation will more likely get approved.
What is the standard furnishing of flats?
All the apartments on offer on HousingAnywhere must meet certain standards. We require fully furnished and equipped ones, dishes, cutlery and internet connection included.
What is a medium-term rent?
The duration of a medium-term rent is usually 1 to 12 months. Most of the landlords offer long-term rents or rents for just a few days, therefore getting a medium-term rent without HousingAnywhere is not that easy.
Can I go through the contract before I make a reservation of the housing?
You can take a look at the contract in advance and online with every offer. After you sign it, you will find it in the application My Housing.
While arranging a contract on HousingAnywhere, you do not have to worry that it could be disadvantageous for you. Our contracts are made so that we avoid all problems! All of them are the same, used by all the landlords on HousingAnywhere.
Can I see my chosen accommodation in person before I sign the lease agreement?
Your time is precious. That's why we've added a virtual tour option to our platform so you can see some of the rentals listed on HousingAnywhere from the comfort of your own home.
If a virtual tour isn't available for the accommodation you've chosen, you can contact the landlord and ask them if they're willing to give you a personal tour of the rental unit.
If you move in and find that the rented accommodation doesn't match the information on HousingAnywhere at the time the reservation request was sent to the landlord, you can withdraw from the lease agreement under certain circumstances explained in this article in our help center.
Also, under our "secure move-in" policy, we'll assist you with moving to an alternative accommodation if you report within a certain period of time that the rental unit doesn't match the ad and the landlord doesn't fix the problem immediately. You can read the details in our help center.
How can I pay?
On HousingAnywhere, you have a variety of payment methods to choose from. You can use your card, payment gateway or bank transfer. Just pick the one which suits you the most.
How can I cancel my reservation?
How you can cancel a reservation varies depending on what stage the reservation is in.
Is your reservation request still waiting for landlord approval? Then you can simply cancel it directly from your My Housing web app!
However, suppose the owner has already approved your reservation request, and you are no longer interested in it. In that case, you can still cancel the reservation before you sign the lease agreement. Just consider that you should do this only in essential cases. Because when the landlord accepts your reservation, their property is stopped being advertised, and they can lose the chance to rent their property to someone else.
Do you have an approved reservation and also a valid agreement? In order to cancel your reservation, contact HousingAnywhere customer support well in advance of your contract beginning (the specific time and amount of refund depends on the type of cancelation policy).
