AFEA Residence — Feasibility Report
AFEA Residence is a new, boutique A+ energy-class development in Agia Marina, on the Mesagros side of Aegina island in the Saronic Gulf — about a 25-minute ferry from the Port of Piraeus. The scheme is intentionally small: eleven apartments of 28–66 m² spanning one- and two-bedroom layouts, built around a shared rooftop swimming pool, with private gardens on the ground-floor homes. Every unit is engineered for low running costs — autonomous heat-pump heating and cooling, solar water heaters, a thermally insulated facade, LED lighting and smart-home automation. This report frames AFEA on its own terms: an efficient, island holiday-rental asset entering at the €250,000 Golden Visa threshold, with completion targeted for 2027. It is general program and market information, not legal or investment advice.

Why AFEA
AFEA is built to do two things at once: hold its value as a modern, low-cost-to-run home, and earn as a holiday let on an accessible Saronic island. A handful of features carry that case.
A+ energy efficiency — autonomous heat-pump heating and cooling, solar water heaters, thermal-insulated facade and LED lighting keep running costs low and resale appeal high.
Boutique scale — just eleven apartments means a quieter building, simpler co-ownership and scarcer resale stock.
Shared rooftop pool — a genuine amenity that lifts both lifestyle value and short-let nightly rates.
Smart-home automation — app-controlled climate, lighting and reinforced security doors suit remote owners and rotating guests alike.
Accessible island — ~25 minutes by ferry from Piraeus makes Aegina a year-round destination, not a seasonal outpost.
Golden Visa Fit
AFEA enters exactly at the €250,000 mark, which lines up with the Greek Golden Visa €250,000 change-of-use / category route — the entry tier of the residency-by-investment programme. The figures below are the headline points an investor should hold in mind. This is general program information; eligibility and documentation should be confirmed with a qualified adviser case by case.
ITEM | DETAIL |
Qualifying investment | From €250,000 (€250,000 change-of-use / category route) |
Residence permit | 5-year renewable residence permit |
Family inclusion | Spouse, children and dependent parents |
Mobility | Free movement across the Schengen Area |
Rental & Yield Outlook
Aegina is one of the closest island getaways to Athens, and Agia Marina is its best-known beach resort — a natural fit for short-let demand. Summer tourism drives peak nightly rates, while year-round ferry access from Piraeus supports off-season weekend occupancy that pure seasonal islands cannot match. A+ efficiency and a rooftop pool position AFEA units toward the upper end of the local short-let market.
DRIVER | WHAT IT MEANS FOR AFEA |
Summer tourism demand | Peak-season short-let rates near Agia Marina beach |
Year-round accessibility | ~25-min ferry from Athens supports off-season occupancy |
A+ efficiency + pool | Premium positioning and lower owner running costs |
Boutique scarcity | Limited stock supports rate resilience and resale |
Unit Mix
Eleven homes range from compact one-bedroom apartments to a two-bedroom garden unit with its own private pool. The headline layouts:
UNIT TYPE | SIZE | BEDS | OUTDOOR |
SGF1 | 65.5 m² | 2BR | 85.4 m² garden + private pool |
SGF2 | 34.7 m² | 1BR | Private garden |
SGF3 | 42 m² | 1BR | Private garden |
GF1–4 | 28–34.7 m² | 1BR | Balconies |
A1–4 | 28–34.7 m² | 1BR | Balconies |
Investment Thesis
AFEA combines A-class energy efficiency and island tourism-rental upside at the €250,000 Golden Visa entry point — an efficient, low-running-cost home on an accessible Saronic island, positioned to earn from summer demand while qualifying for Greek residency at the programme’s entry tier.
