Athena, a 19th century neoclassical building located in one of Athens' most popular neighborhoods, Thissio. This is perhaps the best neighborhood in Athens to appreciate the splendor of the Parthenon, a magnificent, awe-inspiring sight, even more amazing at night, lit up like a golden crown looking down on the city. The views from here are remarkable. Athena is a lovely, spacious and comfortable home with high ceilings, decorated with murals and creating a sense of spaciousness. During the renovation in 2012, which was carried out in strict compliance with archaeological rules and regulations, a wall dating back to the 4th century BC and a Roman mosaic were found. The owners obtained permission to preserve them and they are now a feature of the house and proudly displayed. The layout of "Athena" consists of three interconnected quarters arranged around a beautiful courtyard. The main quarter features a large living room with separate dining room, and a modern kitchen with breakfast area. On the second floor there are 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. A separate 1-bedroom guest quarter on the first floor has a living room, kitchen and bathroom. The living room can be used as an extension of the main quarter's living space. Two more bedrooms and a bathroom are located in the basement. The basement also includes storage, pantry and laundry rooms, as well as a humidity and temperature controlled wine cellar. There is another guest apartment on the second floor.
