Sikinou One-Bed Apartment is on the second floor of an interwar-style building in Kypseli in Athens, recently refurbished in collaboration with London-based architects Royffe Flynn. The ground floor was built in 1922 for a couple as their first home, with the first floor added in 1940 and the second floor in 1960 for their family. It is one of four apartments in the building, with shared access to a rooftop terrace and laundry.

The apartment is in lively Athenian neighbourhood of Kypseli, around the corner from Kypseli’s busy and lovely tree-lined pedestrian square, Fokionos Negri, occupied by small cafés, restaurants, bars and shops. It is a 10-minute walk from Agiou Georgiou Square, well-known for its tavernas and local bars, and one of Athens’s largest public parks, Pedion tou Areos. The weekly farmers market happens on Sikinou every Tuesday, where you can find locally grown fruit and vegetables and homemade sweets.
