It is a regular residence of the Ottoman times and consists of a semi-basement, an elevated ground floor, a courtyard and a tiled roof. The entrance is on the right and leads to the courtyard, where the entrance to the building is also located. A characteristic architectural feature of the building is the windows’ wooden framing.
Few know its existence and how old it really is. It is one of the oldest surviving houses in the city. Most likely, however, it is not the original building, which was destroyed during the Greek Revolution, but the one rebuilt to the standards of the original.
