Elan occupies the entire third-floor corner of Athens’s most coveted address — a rare residence at the summit of Voukourestiou, where the city’s flagship names line a shaded, tree-canopied promenade some hundred and fifty metres long. Behind its landmark façade, distinguished by the building’s signature oriel windows and the generous proportions of 1930s Athenian Modernism, sits a residence conceived entirely for today: turnkey, fully furnished, and equipped with the technology a discerning owner expects.
A renovation spanning more than two years, led by Vangelis Bonios of Studio Bonarchi, reimagined the apartment in the Parisian Haussmannian tradition — full-height boiserie, fine plasterwork and three-metre ceilings — sharpened with the geometry and polish of Art Déco. Dark oak panelling meets pale moulded surfaces; deep-veined Nero Marquina marble meets warm parquet; bronze and brass catch the light throughout.
Οροφές ύψους τριών μέτρων, ξυλοταπετσαρία σε όλο το ύψος και χειροποίητο σφυρήλατο μπρούντζο: η παρισινή ηρεμία του στυλ Haussmann σε συνδυασμό με την κομψότητα του Art Déco.
Every material rewards touch: oak underfoot, marble cool beneath it, velvet and silk softening the harder surfaces, lacquer and patinated bronze holding a quiet sheen. The sitting-room fireplace and the apartment’s sculptural furniture are hand-forged from the same dark bronze, a single thread of craftsmanship running through every room. The palette holds to a disciplined monochrome of black, white and oak, warmed by a single note of colour where it matters.
Light and silence define the residence. Two oriel windows and more than forty metres of balcony sit within the street’s leafy canopy; two parallel rows of double-glazed French doors and windows draw daylight deep into every room while sealing the apartment into complete stillness — a rare quality at the very centre of the capital.
The plan balances entertaining and retreat. The reception rooms flow into each other, one pale and open, one warm and intimate, while the bedroom wing withdraws into its own private register. Two suites, each with a bathroom, occupy that wing — the principal served by a dressing room lined on every side with mirrored wardrobes — with a separate laundry room close at hand. The layout converts readily to three bedrooms.
Delivered fully furnished and turnkey — pieces by Liaigre, Hervé Van der Straeten, Fendi and Bruno Moinard, with Sonos audio and smart-home control throughout.
Underfloor heating, ducted air-conditioning with advanced filtration, fibre-optic connectivity and an integrated smart-home system govern climate, lighting, security and video throughout the apartment; Sonos audio plays through speakers concealed in the ceilings. The residence arrives fully appointed with pieces from Christian Liaigre, Hervé Van der Straeten, Bruno, Fendi and The Invisible Collection, alongside furniture and lighting commissioned for these rooms alone.
The property qualifies for both the Greek Golden Visa and the Greek Non-Dom Program.
