Δυάρι Τροίας 24, Αθήνα 11257, Άνω Κυψέλη - Ευελπίδων, Κυψέλη

Refurbished two bedroom apartment in collaboration with Architect Royffe Flynn.  The 120 sqm apartment is on the third floor of a six-storey polykatoikia (apartment) building built in the 1950s. Unlike the vast majority of its post-war polykatoikia counterparts, it was built with detailed, old world glamour. It has a beautiful, big entrance with marble steps and mirrors and sits on a prominent corner location at the intersection of Troias and Drosopoulou Streets, in Kypseli.  The design approach references the past and the present by combining reclaimed materials and local craftsmanship with purpose built furniture, modern amenities and energy efficient appliances. The apartment is spacious and consists of two bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, two bathrooms, one kitchen, a living room, a dining room, an office space and a basement storage room. Light and air circulate throughout the year by the large french doors and three separate balconies. This apartment would suit a family or friends who like to share. Troias 24 is a five minute walk from Agiou Georgiou Square, well-known for its tavernas and local bars, and one of Athens’ largest public parks, Pedion tou Areos. It is within walking distance to the weekly Farmers Market (open on Tuesdays), the Victoria metro station, and Kypseli’s busy and lovely tree-lined pedestrian square, Fokionos Negri, occupied by small cafés, restaurants, bars and shops. Troias 24 vibes with people who prefer walking to driving and those that like to get to know their neighbours. The apartment is autonomously conditioned, heated with its own gas boiler by radiators and cooled with ceiling mount fan coil units.
