Description
Orchestra, a beautifully restored 19th century neoclassical home showcasing beautiful architectural features unique to the island of Syros. Located in the historic quarter of Ermoupolis, the island’s capital, Orchestra enjoys panoramic sea views from its rooftop terrace.
Orchestra’s building exterior was constructed with marble stonework, unique to Syros, and features distinct wooden louvered shutters that offer privacy and conveniently reflect the summer heat. The residences were fully renovated in keeping with the island’s neoclassical architectural style. Gorgeous color schemes of soft cream and dreamy blue gently accent the airy, sunlit living spaces.
High ceilings, wood flooring, arched glass doorways and period furnishings are some of the decorative elements evoking a stately feeling.
The spacious ground level residence enjoys light-filled rooms comprising two bedrooms and 1 ½ baths. It opens out onto a quaint covered courtyard. One level up is the second residence. Immediately noticeable are the four meter high ceilings with hand-painted ornamental details and the beautifully restored original wooden floors. This residence features three marble balconies with handcrafted wrought iron railings. An internal staircase leads up to the rooftop, a recent addition, which can be used as a guest suite, art studio or just a space to retreat to. The terrace offers postcard views of Syros harbor and the nearby islands of Mykonos, Delos and Tinos that are impressive any time of day and night.
Both residences can be easily converted into one. There is also space to add an elevator if needed.
Orchestra is located in an aristocratic neighbourhood, within walking distance of the charming historic port, and the impressive Town Hall at Miaouli square.
