Velment in The European Business Review: Shaping Greece's Coastal Real Estate Future

This article examines the rise of the Athenian coastline, from Piraeus to Cape Sounion, as one of the Mediterranean's most interesting residential markets, and Velment's focus on small, lifestyle-led developments over large-scale projects. It features Marina View Beachfront Residences in Porto Rafti as a case study.

What this means for buyers today


The Athenian coastline gives buyers something few European capitals can: beachfront living within reach of a major international city and airport. Major regeneration projects along the coast continue to drive interest, and boutique developments with limited units tend to keep their appeal because supply is limited.

Why buy on the Athenian coastline rather than central Athens? 


It depends on how you'll use the property. Central Athens offers stronger year-round rental demand and city convenience. The coast offers space, sea views and a slower pace, while still being within reach of the city and the airport. Many of our clients choose the coast for a second home or future retirement base.
