Historic Penthouse Maisonette With 360 View Rooftop In Prime Kolonaki

Elegant soirées, distinguished gatherings and unforgettable memories have shaped the story of this exceptional residence, with its spectacular rooftop terrace serving as the setting for decades of special occasions. Against the backdrop of the illuminated Acropolis and the endless Athenian skyline, moments were shared and stories were created in a truly unique setting.

In a prime location in Kolonaki, within walking distance of Syntagma Square, The House of Commons, and the city’s most exclusive boutiques, this remarkable 215 sq.m. penthouse maisonette occupies the top floors of a 1961 building and offers the rare opportunity to restore a residence with a remarkable past, exceptional potential and strong investment appeal.

The main living level, extending to approximately 200 sq.m., offers generous proportions and includes two bedrooms, two bathrooms, two kitchens -one dedicated to preparation and the other serving the formal dining room-, staff quarters with an extra bedroom and bathroom, as well as a basement storage area. An additional 19 sq.m. rooftop guest room and a separate 17.5 sq.m. flexible room complete the property, while the building is served by elevator.

A beautifully crafted solid wooden staircase connects the two levels, leading to the private rooftop terrace with its breathtaking 360° views across the Acropolis, Lycabettus Hill, the Athenian skyline and the sea beyond.

Generous reception areas filled with natural light, original parquet floors, built-in wardrobes and a fireplace preserve the home’s authentic character, providing an exceptional foundation for a thoughtful renovation that respects its heritage while embracing contemporary living.

More than a penthouse, this is a residence with a legacy. A place where history, architecture and extraordinary views come together, offering the opportunity to create one of Athens’ truly distinctive homes. Having witnessed decades of memorable moments, it now awaits a new owner to shape its future and create a story of their own.
