Summary:
Upper level ground floor 27 m2 studio with double bed, living space with desk, open-plan kitchen, dining table for 2 and balcony, perfect for 2 people.
The Space:
The studio is the smaller of the building’s 2 ground floor studios; because the building is on a sloped lot, the flat has a long “first floor” balcony.
It has just been entirely renovated and designed, as well as nicely furnished and fully equipped to meet all the comforts one misses when away from home.
The main living space consists of a double bed, a sofa, and a small desk with useful shelf space above it.
The entire wall to the left of the studio’s entrance contains sufficient storage space; the hallway ends at the elegant open-plan kitchen, with a small fridge, microwave oven, ceramic cook top, coffee maker, as well as all necessary kitchenware. A small breakfast table in front of the kitchen counter meets the needs of 2 people.
The bathroom contains a fitted wooden cupboard, while the shower is separated by a glass partition.
The studio is air-conditioned making it suitable for year-round occupancy. Bed linens & towels are all provided, along with a complimentary toiletries' welcome pack.

This cozy studio is ideally located just 2 blocks away from the sea, in a safe and quiet neighborhood of Palaio Faliro, a residential area with friendly residents.
