Single-family detached house 400 m², Ermoupoli, Syros

Situated behind the equally impressive St. Nicholas church in Vafiadaki St. of the Vaporia neighborhood, this unique, perfectly preserved villa is a recognized historical monument form the Greek Ministry of Culture, diligently maintaining the manorial character of the late 19th and early 20th century Ermoupolis to the detail. It is one of the scarce remaining homes exemplifying the aesthetics and prosperity of the city's most thriving era, having been built in 1870 with neoclassical and romantic architectural influences from across Europe. Comprising this style are the striking painted ceiling, stone walls and carefully selected and maintained rustic furniture across the house. The accommodating villa consists of four joyfully elegant bedrooms and five full bathrooms distributed between two stories and a studio basement, while the top floor offers three balconies with view of the surrounding city and the patio welcomes all guests with a colorful serenity. Additionally, each floor has a lovely living room and kitchen to spend the day in their everlasting charm. Further characteristics of the villa are the two wells, one water reservoir, built-in closets and inward direction for privacy. Finally, there is an independent and fully equipped basement that can host an additional two people and can be used as a guest house. In spite of its less than five minute walk proximity to the city center, the villa is quiet and peaceful, while still remaining very close to all everyday needs like supermarkets, restaurants, utilities, public transportation and all kinds of local shops. The sea is easily accessible from Vaporia Beach for anyone looking to swim or relax. Syros, the capital island of the Cyclades is located in the centre of the Aegean Sea, ensuring continuous connection with Athens, the adjacent islands and many other European cities. Three museums, a small opera house and an open-air theatre along with traditional tavernas and new gourmet restaurants and bars, offer a colorful selection for every taste at any budget. Sanded beaches, traditional villages producing local delicacies such as cheese, honey and fresh pasta, numerous cultural events and festivals, the island combines natural beauty, culture and tradition as well as contemporary dynamic movements. Syros has strong recycling consciousness providing its citizens with green solutions, since decades. Syros is ideal for people who want to enjoy the greek element as well as international gastronomy, beauty of nature, privacy, security and quality of life in the heart of the Mediterranean.
