Welcoming and airy, painted in earthy colours that reflect light and emit that special Cyclades feel. Tastefully decorated with handmade pieces of furniture and ceramic creations, it is authentic, yet unpretentious.
The house has two entrances. The main entrance is through an old iron door at number 30, which leads to ‘avlidaki’, the Greek word for the small front yard. You are greeted by a small cistern with its marble-sculpted mouth and lots of flowers.
The living room, one double bedroom, the children’s bedroom with the loft, and the kitchen are all located on the ground floor.
Walk up three steps and you will find yourself on the elevated part of the ground floor, where the bathroom, the study and the back entrance to the house are located.
From here, a wooden staircase will lead you to the first floor with its two bedrooms and the grand open veranda.
The house is located in an advantageous position, being as it is on a pedestrian-only alley but with easy access by car or taxi. You can park your vehicle within a distance of just 50 metres. If you want to use the free municipal mini bus service, the nearest stop is 100 metres away.
Walk a few steps from the main entrance and you will find the paved steps that will take you down the slope and into the central square and Ermoupolis market area in 3 minutes. If you walk up the slope, you will find yourself in the medieval historic neighbourhood of Ano Syros.
If you walk eastwards and wander through the picturesque narrow streets of the city, you will soon come to the ‘Apollo Theatre’, St. Nicholas Church and impressive ‘Vaporia’ area. A few steps down will take you to the unique ‘Asteria’ beach for a refreshing swim.
