: Much better. I was making the point that it's not an apartment.

: "has double frontage": this is fine for a building fronting onto two streets. - or, in this case, a property/site.

: Θα σε ευχαριστήσω που μου άνοιξες τα μάτια. Αλλά θα σε στεναχωρήσω που το "διαμπερές" δεν έχει σχέση με all-round. Έχει όψη σε δύο (συνήθως παράλληλους) δρόμους.

Dave Bindon
: As Nick points out, the plot is bordered by other properties on 2 sides, so "all-round" is not appropriate. Also "view" would indicate something much better than being able to see the other side of Acharnon!

Συγγνώμη, ούτε που πρόσεξα ότι πρόκειται για οικόπεδο. Το διαμπερές οικόπεδο είναι οικόπεδο με δύο προσόψεις, μια στον ένα δρόμο και μια στον άλλο. With two facades.

: I quite like this, as it avoids confusion with "double-fronted".

Thanks, Dave - I think it's more appropriate, though, for a room or flat with windows facing in both directions, rather than the plot of land.
