In real estate, size matters. Big time. A one-person garsoniera about 30 sq. meters can range from 350 to 500 euros with one occupant. A two-person flat of 50 sq. meters or more can be as low as 550 euros per month and more often runs 700 or 800 euros. ... Immediately off the center are a series of concrete jungles with similar size and price -Kallithea, Petralona, Pangrati, Koukaki, Zografou, Ambelokipi, Psihico, Halandri- where housing is most easily found. ...
Sometimes, if you are lucky, you can find furnished apartments. I've seen a few in Pagrati in the past. Try http://athens.craigslist.org/ and look up the vacation rentals and the apartment listings. You might get lucky! ...
