Spata & Artemida: East Attica's New Generation of Buyers

New homes in Spata and Artemida for buyers in East Attica
In this article

    Over the past five years, East Attica has emerged as one of the fastest-growing hubs for new housing in Greece. Spata, Artemida, Markopoulo, and Koropi are attracting a steadily growing share of the demand — and of the value.

    What changed

    A combination of three factors transformed the area:

    • The Attiki Odos and the airport connection made accessible a zone that was once considered remote.
    • New premium developments by companies such as Residences raised the bar and changed the perception of what “new housing” means in the area.
    • The rationalization of prices on the southern Riviera turned buyers eastward, where the cost per square meter remains significantly lower.

    Spata: the center of activity

    The town of Spata has the most complete infrastructure in the wider area — shopping centers, schools, services, and direct access to the airport. The residential zone is expanding at a pace found nowhere else in Attica, with many newly built complexes of apartments and maisonettes.

    At Residences we are actively engaged in the area, with one of our largest current projects at Christou Dimarchou Beka 22 — 22 Golden Visa-eligible apartments built to high specifications.

    Artemida: beach and quality of life

    The Artemida offers something Spata does not — direct access to the sea. The area is built up mainly with single-family homes and maisonettes, with part of the construction activity expanding close to the beaches.

    Who the area is right for

    East Attica is a good fit for:

    • Young families buying their first home and seeking construction quality without the cost of the southern suburbs.
    • Executives based at the airport or at groups headquartered in East Attica.
    • Golden Visa investors who take advantage of the lower investment thresholds compared with Athens and the southern suburbs.

    East Attica has changed quietly but decisively over the past ten years.
