Attica is a peninsula, surrounded by the Aegean Sea on three sides. It is home to Greece’s largest city and its capital, Athens, and its surrounding neighbourhoods. The birthplace of democracy, Attica has a legacy that obviously permeates across the world today. If you’re interested in archaeology, history, and culture, you’ll be spoiled for choice of things to explore. Here, you’ll find one of the world’s most legendary sites, the Acropolis, which includes the Parthenon. Plus, you can see the Cape Sounion and the Temple of Poseidon; the ancient cemetery the Kerameikos Archaeological Site; and the National Archaeological Museum of Athens, among many others. Additionally, Attica is home to beautiful nature, such as the National Garden of Athens and the Hymettus mountain range. Plus, it boasts of the gorgeous Athens Rivera.
From May to October, Attica enjoys temperatures in the 20s. July and August are the hottest months with an average daily maximum of 33°C and up to twelve hours of sunshine a day. From November, temperatures cool, with highs of 18 degrees; average rainfall increases to 75mm and sunshine decreases to just five hours a day. January is the coldest of all with highs of just 13 degrees.
One major plus about owning a property in Athens is that it will be straightforward to get to, no matter the time of year. While many of the Greek islands have only seasonal international flights, Athens does not.
If you’re keen to be in the heart of Greece’s hustle and bustle, then you might want to look for a property for sale in Athens. Athens is a lively cosmopolitan city, full of cafes to pause and enjoy a coffee, restaurants, and shops. It is the economic centre of Greece, so offers the most job opportunities. It is the academic centre too and is home to top-rated universities, including the University of Athens. Plus, the city is well-connected by the Athens metro.
Plaka is the oldest neighbourhood in Athens. Due to its position underneath the Acropolis, Plaka is referred to as the “neighbourhood of the Gods” (just imagine inviting guests, “come to my new home, it’s in the neighbourhood of the gods” – worth it just for the name?). Today, it is a maze of pedestrianised streets featuring cafes, bars, shops, and museums, including the Acropolis Museum.
Nestled on the slopes of one of Athens’ tallest hills, Kolonsaki is an upscale neighbourhood in Athens. It is known for its café culture, high-end shopping and its cultural attractions, including the Benaki Museum. Many overseas buyers and diplomats choose to live here.
Near the University of Athens, Exarcheia attracts students and artists to its streets. It is made up vintage and second-hand shops, bars serving budget-friendly drinks, a lively farmers’ market and the National Archaeological Museum. The streets are also vibrantly covered in graffiti and street art.
The unofficial capital of the Athens Rivera, Glyfada is a glitzy neighbourhood. It is home to several sandy beaches; Metaxa Street, a long, open-air shopping strip; and an 18-hole open-air golf course. If you are seeking a property on the beach, then Voula has a similar vibe.
Psirri has had a transformation in recent years but retains an old-fashioned village feel. Here, you’ll find lovely old Greek taverns, galleries and a host of artisan shops.
Other notable neighbourhoods to look for a property in Athens include: Chalandri, Petralana, Thissio, and Mets.
