The general area of Koukaki borders from the north with Makrygianni neighbourhood and the historical district of Plaka (the historical neighbourhood of Athens),<\/p>\n
the Municipality of Kallithea and Petralona neighbourhood from the south, Neos Kosmos neighbourhood from the east, and Filopappou and Thisio<\/p>\n
neighbourhoods from the west. The two largest streets that cross Koukaki are Veikou Street (north-to-south) and Dimitrakopoulou Street (south-to-north).<\/p>\n
On the borderline between Koukaki and Neos Kosmos stands Andrea Syngrou Avenue, an important avenue in Athens that connects its center with Poseidonos<\/p>\n
Avenue to the south. I don’t feel good with that kind of depictions its better to see it directly in map herebelow .<\/strong><\/p>\n \n Vogue magazine\u2019s American Edition has named Koukaki and Makriyianni as the \u2018new up-and-coming neighbourhoods\u2019 to visit in Athens.<\/p>\n Koukaki was listed as the fifth top trending neighbourhood worldwide out of \u00a016 with the highest increase in demand for 2015.<\/p>\n I will try to explain the reason as simple as I can :<\/p>\n Plaka has a very touristic nature all places were close and it pushed all traffic \u00a0to south directly to Koukaki, its position on Athens map<\/p>\n gives many advantages…it is close to Acropolis, Plaka and all the Athens sights ,<\/span>is another way of explaining the transmittion .<\/p>\n Koukaki took its name from Mr. Koukakis which was the owner of a bed manifacturing unit in this area . Its a proof that it was<\/p>\n not a touristic area .It was and still is a residencial area still remains as a quite area, although its becoming \u00a0touristic .<\/p>\n it is realy quite even for poor sleepers.<\/p>\n I see in different reviews that “The part of Koukaki that is in touch with plaka is among the best part of Athens.”<\/strong><\/p>\n This is not a correct information anymore but I will stay in real estate aspect of thing .<\/p>\n It is the most difficult place for a real estate company because the numbers for sale and for rent are \u00a0very limited.<\/p>\n Koukaki is the paradise of the shared economy and hits records every year.<\/p>\n We have close relationship with owners renting their houses or flats and we see that the average number is between 270 and 310 .<\/p>\n The closest neighborhood to Acropolis \u00a0is Koukaki . If you check the statistics of the Airbnb or if you make a research on the internet<\/p>\n you can\u00a0see articles that Koukaki \u00a0ranks fifth in the world as one of the fast growing areas in the world .<\/p>\n We have lots of clients asking to rent a flat and we are in difficult position to tell them that we don’t have any.<\/p>\n All the owners prefer to rent it via Airbnb or similar platforms and they don’t prefer normal renting.<\/p>\n This was the start to grow another model of investment \u00a0.Investors are buying old houses, or houses that need renovation<\/p>\n they renovate them and put it in platforms like Airbnb .<\/p>\n This week I was showing the flat pictured below.<\/p>\n
