Property Code: 7-603.On Lycabettus Hill, in that rare part of Athens where the city softens its pace and architecture carries genuine memory, an entire listed two-storey detached house of 197 sq.m. is available for sale. Built in 1930 on a 167 sq.m. plot and officially listed as a protected building since 1985, the residence has previously been occupied by an Embassy — a detail that quietly speaks to its level of security, position and institutional prestige.This is a home of character and presence, arranged over three functional levels connected by suspended staircases, creating a sense of architectural continuity and privacy.The ground floor (75 sq.m.) comprises four independent rooms — two facing the front and two at the rear — along with a bathroom with bathtub and a boiler room. It lends itself perfectly to use as office space, guest accommodation, a studio or a discreet home office.The first floor (71 sq.m.) forms the social heart of the house: a kitchen with white wooden cabinetry and concealed lighting, a living room with fireplace, a guest WC, and direct access to the private courtyard. The aesthetic subtly recalls refined Californian homes of a certain era — warm, understated and timeless.A short flight of stairs leads to an additional level of approximately 36 sq.m., which can be configured as a master bedroom suite, second living area, library or executive private lounge.The courtyard, measuring 25–30 sq.m., is perhaps the property’s most unexpected luxury: a private outdoor space of greenery and calm in the heart of the city, with pre-installation in place for a swimming pool for those wishing to further enhance the villa’s character.The house was fully renovated in 1999 and remains in excellent condition, preserving the authentic charm of early 20th-century Athenian architecture — wooden windows and entrance door, traditional materials, wooden and tiled flooring, fireplace, natural gas and air conditioning. Its aesthetic is not contrived; it is mature, discreet and effortlessly elegant — a quality rarely found in central Athens properties today.The location is outstanding: beside Lycabettus Hill, close to Ampelokipi, Kountouriotika, the Panathinaikos Stadium, the Areios Pagos, major hospitals, Kolonaki and Neapoli Exarcheion. Ampelokipi METRO Station is approximately 700 metres away, while the city centre is easily accessible on foot via the Lycabettus peripheral road.Exclusively through PANTOU REALTORS, a residence for buyers seeking not merely a house in the centre, but an urban address with history, character and rare personality.
