Kea, CY 84002

Set in a wonderful position with panoramic views over rolling hillsides to the port of Korissia and out to sea, this grand villa is the epitome of luxury and elegance. Its interior of 770sq.m features hard oak and limestone floors, high wood-beamed ceilings, and sun-filled areas with large windows which highlight the amazing views. Formal indoor and outdoor living and dining areas, seven bedroom suites (most with separate sitting areas), two kitchens and an independent apartment for staff complete the living space. A mature garden of 7,858sq.m forms the perfect setting for a swimming pool with a running water fountain. Spacious terraces are made of limestone and feature numerous covered areas with day beds. The bedroom suites have shaded porches overlooking the garden. The residence is offered complete with a collection of custom-made and antique furniture which creates an inviting atmosphere of oriental mysticism. Some of the stone walls have been whitewashed by hand, while others have been left with the original colored stone to enhance the natural decor. The whole setting changes every hour of the day and night, reaching a crescendo during sunset when the colors of the sun come together with the clouds and the twinkling lights of the port below to form an unparalleled scenery rarely matched in any part of the world. The estate is easily accessed by a one-hour ferry ride from the port of Lavrion, which is only twenty-five minutes from Athens International Airport and forty-five minutes from the center of Athens. The property is ten minutes drive from Korissia harbor and two minutes from the main village of the island. Adjacent to the garden an additional plot of land of 4,065 sq.m is available, including a permit to build a villa of 200sq.m which could be used as a guest house.
