Olvion House: rustic stone retreat in Athens with a cozy private courtyard.

Welcome to Olvion House, a beautifully renovated stone-built residence in the heart of Athens, located in the historic and artistic neighborhood of Kerameikos. This charming single-level home is a rare example of traditional Athenian architecture, lovingly restored to blend its original character with rustic elegance and modern comfort.

Built entirely from stone, Olvion House preserves the essence of old Athens while embracing a warm, inviting design. The renovation highlights the natural textures of the original structure—exposed stone walls, wooden beams, and soft earthy tones—creating a space that feels both authentic and serene. Rustic details, carefully curated furniture, and cozy lighting make the interior feel like a true retreat from the city's energy.

The open-plan living and dining area is designed for comfort and relaxation. Whether you're enjoying a quiet night in, working remotely, or sharing a meal, the space is both functional and full of atmosphere. The fully equipped kitchen provides everything you need to prepare your favorite dishes, while the natural materials and thoughtful layout make every corner of the house feel intimate and personal.

One of the highlights of Olvion House is its private courtyard—a peaceful and cozy outdoor space that brings the whole experience together. Enclosed by stone walls and filled with greenery, it offers a sense of calm and privacy that’s rare in the city. It’s the perfect place to start your day with a coffee, read a book in the afternoon sun, or unwind in the evening with a glass of wine under the stars. The courtyard adds a unique charm that guests often fall in love with.

Kerameikos is one of Athens’ most vibrant and up-and-coming neighborhoods, known for its artistic vibe, local tavernas, and proximity to major cultural sites. From Olvion House, you're just a short walk from Gazi, Thissio, and the ancient Kerameikos archaeological site, while the nearby metro station connects you easily to the Acropolis, Syntagma, and beyond.

Whether you're visiting Athens for culture, work, or leisure, Olvion House offers more than a place to stay—it offers a feeling. A quiet sanctuary with character and soul, right in the heart of the city.

⚠️ Important Notes: The second bedroom is the living room area, which can be converted into a sleeping space. Please be aware that it does not have a natural separation from the rest of the house. The main bedroom is located on the mezzanine level, offering a private and cozy retreat.
👉 This feature is part of the authentic revival of a classic Athenian townhouse experience, where open, multi-functional spaces reflect the traditional way of living in old Athens.

We look forward to welcoming you and sharing with you the magic of Olvion House.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a separate bedroom. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a dishwasher.
