White Lavish is an elegant property combining traditional and contemporary architecture, located in the very heart of the Athens North Suburbs, in Kifissia.
Kifissia is an upscale area known for its exclusive real estate and White Lavish is no exception, it is an attractive, well proportioned family home, full of charm.
The rather grand entrance opens into a lengthy entrance hall, with marble flooring and feature stone wall. The first room leading from the hallway is an impressive office space decorated in classic tones of burgundy, with wall to wall bookshelves to store and display precious book collections.
A formal living and dining room makes for easy entertaining on a large scale for when the occasion arises and both these classically beautiful rooms lead directly out to two atmospheric terraces which are perfect for relaxed daily gatherings.
The hub of any family home is always the kitchen and here at White Lavish, the newly refurbished kitchen will not disappoint. Sunshine floods in through the double windows and breakfast in this lovely space is a great way to start the day. Beyond the kitchen is the utility room, storage and staff accommodation.
White Lavish combines timeless design and architecture whilst at the same time balancing classic sophistication with everyday functionality.
Attention to detail is apparent throughout as is the quality of the extensive refurbishment undertaken by the current owners.
Up on the first floor the master bedroom suite will grab your attention. Large windows again let plenty of light into a space created for quiet relaxation. The private sitting room and atrium will be a favourite place to enjoy with the company of a good book. The fireplace will warm a chilly winter’s evening adding a cosy atmosphere to this beautiful room.
Two further spacious bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms complete the layout of the first floor.
White Lavish is surrounded by mature gardens. Stone pathways lead to the outdoor pool as well as to a large outdoor area which would be great utilised as a tennis court as well as being the perfect space for a kitchen garden. Growing fragrant herbs and organic vegetables to prepare and share with friends and family.
Kifissia, the undoubted centre of Athens' northern suburbs is the city's main upper-class district known for its elegant mansions, extensive parks, foreign schools, gastronomy scene and relaxed lifestyle.Heading north from Athens Centre along Kifissias Avenue, we encounter a series of affluent districts each one with its own distinctive identity.Psychiko and Filothei suburbs developed during the 1920s for the Athenian aristocracy of the time have been influenced by the architectural style of English garden cities. No wonder why many of the streets here are named after flowers. Besides hosting a significant number of foreign embassies they are also known for their elite private schools: Arsakeio Tositseio School, Moraitis School and Athens College.Further north Kifissia, Kastri, Kefalari, Ekali and Politia are all idyllic districts developed amongst vast city parks that one feels being in the mountains. As they are slightly elevated from the sea level and in close proximity to the countryside the air is much cleaner and cooler. Their centres are buzzing around vibrant cafes, elegant restaurants and sophisticated boutique shopping malls.Goulandris Natural History Museum founded in 1964 and villa Kazouli are two of Kifissia’s landmarks housed in imposing neoclassical building. Kifissia’s Park, a unique space that was created in 1885 and features sky-tall trees, wonderful design, a café and playground.For passionate tennis players, two of Greece’s elite private clubs are based in the northern suburbs. Ekali club and Tatoi club that offers a variety of wellness services and top-class restaurants to their members.
