Planned, to be confirmed
What each home has
Each residence will belong to its own owner, who lets it directly or through the building's operator, still to be appointed. The rent, and what it includes, will be stated in writing for each home before you sign.
Your own kitchen
A full kitchen with a dining area in every residence, open to the living room.
Your own bathroom
Shower and WC in every residence; the concept render of the two-bedroom bathroom shows a washer and dryer.
A storage room
One basement storage room of about 9 to 15 m² with each residence, for bikes, cases and winter things.
Balcony and lift
The first, second and third floors have balconies and a lift stop. The two ground-floor homes have no lift stop.
Whether bills, Wi-Fi and furniture are included will depend on each home and will be listed before you sign. The roof garden belongs to the penthouse in the concept design, so it is not a shared space.
The building
A small building, seven homes
MVR 19 is an existing building on Mavromataion Street in south Patras. It is being converted into seven independent residences: two on each of the ground, first and second floors, and the penthouse on the third.
It is a small building: seven homes, not 500, so you will know your neighbours. The conversion is being prepared by TPL S.A., a company based in Patras. The waitlist hears about dates first.

How to rent
Five steps, from waitlist to keys
Joining the waitlist is free and commits you to nothing until you sign a lease.
Join the waitlist
Tell us when you start, the size of home you would like and whether you plan to share. No payment, no commitment.
Tour by video or in person
When the residences are ready to let, we invite the waitlist first.
Apply and send your documents
ID card or passport, a Greek tax number (AFM) for the tenant, and a guarantor if needed.
Sign the lease and pay the deposit
The lease is registered electronically with AADE, the Greek tax authority. The deposit is no more than two months' rent.
Move in
Keys and meters are planned to be ready before you arrive.
For parents
For parents and guardians
A first home away from home should be simple to budget for and safe to live in. This is what we plan.
A registered lease and a capped deposit
Leases run for at least six months and are registered electronically with AADE, the Greek tax authority. The lease can be in a parent's name and tax number, and parents can pay the rent directly. The deposit is no more than two months' rent, returned at the end of the lease after the check-out inspection.
Student housing allowance
Families of students at universities outside Attica and Thessaloniki may be eligible for the state student housing allowance of €2,000 a year, or €2,500 when the student shares with another student. It needs a registered lease of at least six months, and family income limits apply. The state decides each claim, so we cannot promise it.
Safety (planned)
- Controlled entry to the building
- CCTV in common areas only
- Fire detection in every residence
- A named contact and an emergency phone line
Each item will be confirmed with the final specification.
Questions
What tenants and parents ask
When will the residences open?
Opening for an academic year to be announced. The conversion is in preparation; the developer's target for completion is Q4 2027, an estimate, not a promise (see the project timeline). We will write to the waitlist first as soon as the dates are fixed.
How much will the rent be?
Rents will be announced before letting opens, together with the exact list of what each one includes. Join the waitlist to hear first.
What will be included in the rent?
Each residence is let by its own owner, directly or through the building's operator. Whether bills, Wi-Fi and furniture are included will be listed in writing for each home before you sign.
Can two students share a residence?
Yes. The three two-bedroom residences are planned so that each flatmate has a bedroom and the living room, kitchen and bathroom are shared. When a student shares with another student, the state housing allowance can be €2,500 a year instead of €2,000, subject to its conditions.
How long is the lease? Can I rent for the academic year only?
Leases will run for at least six months, usually for the academic year from September. Holiday and short stays are not offered. A Greek lawyer will approve the lease, and it will be registered electronically with AADE.
How much is the deposit?
No more than two months' rent. It is returned at the end of the lease, after the check-out inspection.
Can a parent sign the lease?
Yes. A parent can be the tenant, using their own Greek tax number (AFM). This can help with the student housing allowance, which families may be eligible for when the lease is registered and runs at least six months.
Can I use the roof garden?
No. In the concept design the roof garden belongs to the penthouse; that allocation is to be fixed in the building's new horizontal-property deed, so it is not a shared space. The other residences on the upper floors have balconies.
How do I get to the University of Patras at Rio and to Koukouli?
The Koukouli campus is about 2.2 km on foot, roughly 29 minutes. For Rio, walk about 1.8 km to Agios Andreas station and take suburban rail Line 2, which reaches Rio in 14 minutes; a shuttle bus links Kastelokampos station with the campus. We estimate 45 to 60 minutes door to door. By car it is about 13 minutes.
Can I see a residence by video call?
Yes. When the residences are ready, we will offer video and in-person tours, starting with the waitlist. Until then you can walk through the concept renders of a two-bedroom residence on the walk-through page.
