Central Athens Residences is a commercial-to-residential conversion of a former office and retail building in the Victoria–Exarcheia corridor of Central Athens. Designed by architect Aggelos Floros for Living Group, the project delivers 10 boutique apartments with private gardens, a 41.5 sqm residents' gym, elevator access, and individual storage units — qualifying for the Greek Golden Visa programme. The building spans nine levels and is on track for completion in August 2026. Communal amenities include a ground-floor gym equipped with Technogym apparatus and a landscaped rooftop garden with barbecue terrace — rare shared amenities for a Central Athens building of this scale.
The location sits at the convergence of two operational metro lines — Victoria (Line 1, 4 minutes walk) and Omonia (Lines 1 & 2, 8 minutes) — with the upcoming Exarcheia station on Line 4 (~2029) adding a third. Metro expansion has historically been associated with significant property value uplift in newly connected corridors. The National Archaeological Museum and the newly renovated 27-hectare Pedion Areos park are both within a 5-minute walk. At significantly below Kolonaki or Glyfada pricing, this is Athens' most compelling urban Golden Visa proposition.
Golden Visa Eligible. This conversion qualified under the €250,000 threshold.

Prime Location
Two Metro Lines Today. A Third on the Way.
Central Athens Residences occupies one of Central Athens' most connected positions — where the Victoria–Exarcheia corridor meets Pedion Areos park and the city's institutional core. With Metro Line 4 under construction (contractual completion ~2029), previous metro expansions suggest meaningful property value uplift in connected corridors. The district's rental yield of 5.6% already leads Central Athens, outperforming the Southern Riviera's 3.8%.

Amenities & Services
Considered Urban Living
Metro — Dual Station Access
2-minute walk to the upcoming Exarcheia station (Line 4, completion ~2029) and 5 minutes to Victoria station (Line 1). Previous metro expansions have been associated with significant property value uplift in newly connected corridors.
Residents' Gym — Technogym
A dedicated 41.5 sqm fitness facility equipped with Technogym apparatus, exclusively for residents — eliminating the need for external memberships.
Rooftop Garden & BBQ
A communal rooftop terrace with landscaped garden and built-in barbecue area — offering panoramic views over Central Athens for residents' exclusive use.
Elevator
Full elevator access serving all floors, ensuring comfort and accessibility throughout the building.
Private Gardens
Ground-floor residences open onto fully open-air private gardens of up to 35.75 sqm — professionally landscaped with stone paving, planted borders, and direct indoor-outdoor flow. A rare luxury in Central Athens, exclusive to the basement/ground floor.
Private Storage
10 individual storage rooms allocated to each residence, providing dedicated space for belongings.
Fully Furnished
Every residence is delivered turnkey with a complete furniture package, fitted kitchen, and brand-name appliances by Bosch or equivalent — move-in or rent-ready from day one (Aug 2026 completion).
Waterproofing & Drainage
Comprehensive water insulation and a full building drainage system channel runoff from all upper floors — protecting garden-level residences and ensuring long-term structural integrity.
Private Balconies
Every residence from the first floor upward features a private balcony. Ground-floor units forgo balconies in favour of their larger, fully open-air garden terraces.
Modern Building Systems
Entirely new mechanical infrastructure: independent split-unit air conditioning for each room (living room and bedroom), modern electrical wiring, and dedicated water supply and sewage systems throughout the building.
2.97 m Floor-to-Floor Height
Each level rises 2.97 metres floor-to-floor — well above the Athens standard — creating generous ceiling heights that amplify natural light and spatial comfort.

Motorised electric shutters on all windows for effortless light control, enhanced privacy, and an additional layer of security and insulation.

BS1 is the standout unit — at €260,000 it clears the Golden Visa threshold by just €10,000 while delivering Central Athens' most competitive €/sqm at €3,939. The convergence of two metro lines (with a third under construction), proximity to two major universities, and the Exarcheia gentrification wave create a compelling value-appreciation thesis. Entry price is significantly below Kolonaki and Glyfada equivalents.
