Marin

Set directly along the waterfront of the Athens Riviera, Marin faces the Aegean from a position just above the shoreline, with uninterrupted sea views extending across its terraces and principal living spaces. The setting combines the slower rhythm of coastal living with immediate access to the southern suburbs of Athens, where marinas, restaurants and cafés remain active throughout the year.

The residence extends across 162 sqm (1,744 sqft) on a 280 sqm (3,014 sqft) plot and is arranged over two levels, fully oriented towards the sea. Broad terrace openings and large sliding glazed doors allow the exterior spaces to become a natural continuation of the interiors, particularly across the main living level where the water remains constantly present beyond the terraces and pool.

Inside, the architecture is shaped around natural light, openness and proximity to the coastline. The main living area opens directly onto the sea-facing terrace, while the kitchen and dining spaces remain connected yet comfortably defined for everyday use. Pale stone flooring, soft neutral finishes and wide openings reflect the brightness of the surrounding landscape, while the orientation allows sea air to move naturally through the house during the warmer months.

Bedrooms are positioned across both levels, including an upper-floor suite opening onto a private terrace overlooking the water. Morning light reaches the upper floor early in the day, while the western orientation gradually softens towards evening as the sun lowers across the coastline. Throughout the house, the emphasis remains on ease of movement and the uninterrupted relationship between the interiors and the sea immediately beyond them.

The outdoor areas are arranged to respond directly to the waterfront setting. A long swimming pool runs parallel to the coastline, framed by stone terraces and low planting that preserves privacy without interrupting the views. Covered exterior spaces provide shelter from the midday sun while remaining open to the shifting colours of the sea throughout the day. As evening approaches, reflected light moves across the terraces and the water beyond becomes almost continuous with the horizon line.

Three private parking spaces provide practical convenience in a part of the Riviera where direct waterfront access is increasingly rare. Marin combines a contemporary coastal architecture with immediate proximity to the city, allowing the sea to remain the defining presence throughout the property.
