The island of Syros is a very special case when it comes to real estate in the Cyclades. Contrary to the rather minimalist architecture of the other islands of the Aegean Sea, Syros has a plethora of impressive public buildings, bourgeois mansions and beautiful squares. This is why the island is often described as the cradle of Greek neoclassical architecture. Simultaneously, the island has an all-year-round infrastructure and is becoming a major destination for digital nomads from all around the world.
Syros is considered to be a hidden gem in the real estate world and it recently started attracting the interest of international buyers of an important financial standing. Undoubtedly, Poseidonia, also known as Dellagrazia, concentrates the biggest interest. The affluent community is located on the southwest coast of the island, which is well known for its historical neoclassical mansions of exquisite architecture built for leading shipping magnates and industrialists.
Standing as one of the majestic 19th century summer houses on the island of Syros, the historic Ladopoulos Poseidonia Mansion was built in 1835 and is one of the most impressive examples of privately-owned, neoclassical listed buildings. This elegant 400 m² mansion, combines a truly unique architecture with beautiful and secluded gardens in a plot of 12.000 m², breathtaking views of the sea and an impressive swimming pool which could facilitate evening social events for numerous guests. Simultaneously, the house is just a 7-minute walk from the nearest beach and a 20-minute drive from the capital of Syros, Hermoupolis.
Over the past few years, many interesting renovation projects are taking place in Hermoupolis. An exceptional example of this trend is located only a few minutes away from the famous bourgeois Vaporia quarter, in close proximity to the magnificent St. Nicolas Church. The 4 bedrooms house can be reached easily within 5 minutes from the main port, while Vaporia beach is only 2 minutes away. The location of the property is characterized by its prestigious neighbouring buildings, including some of the most renowned luxury hotels of Hermoupolis.
Both properties were recently listed by the Syros branch of the real estate company ERRIKOS KOHLS IMMOBILIEN CONSULTING. As multiple articles in the Greek and international press underline, the real estate market of Syros is in the process of becoming a very attractive destination for the real estate market of the Cyclades. An important factor in this development is the upcoming upgrade of the island's airport.
