The residence is located in the affluent Kolonaki district of Athens, an area known for its neoclassical architecture and proximity to important cultural sites.

The building itself reflects traditional Greek architectural elements along with a Palm Beach, Florida aesthetic, harmonizing with the surrounding neighborhood. Its design includes columns and symmetrical facades, which are characteristic of the historical aesthetics of the area.

Inside, the residence is designed to accommodate private living quarters and spaces for official functions. The interior includes formal reception rooms, dining areas and meeting spaces, all furnished to represent American culture while respecting Greek artistic traditions.
