Property Description
Set within the verdant countryside of Kombitsi, in the heart of Corfu, Nemora is a classically proportioned estate surrounded by 23,000 sqm of mature gardens, gently rolling land, and established trees. Hidden within one of the island’s most discreet residential areas, the property combines the atmosphere of a traditional Corfiot country house with the convenience of a central location, just a short drive from Corfu Town and the island’s western coastline.
Approached through private grounds bordered by dense greenery, the residence reveals itself gradually through lawns and shaded garden paths. The architecture follows the balanced symmetry of traditional Ionian estates, with soft terracotta façades, green shuttered windows, and stone-paved courtyards that sit naturally within the landscape. Mature cypress, olive, and pine trees frame the house, while the surrounding vegetation creates an atmosphere of complete privacy and stillness.
The interior unfolds across two levels and approximately 350 sqm of living space. Reception rooms are generous yet restrained, designed with a sense of warmth rather than formality. A large sitting room centres around a traditional fireplace, while a separate dining room and library create quieter spaces throughout the house. Tall garden-facing windows allow light to move softly through the interiors during the day, framing uninterrupted views of the lawns and surrounding woodland.
The kitchen retains a relaxed country-house character, with muted green cabinetry, stone flooring, and direct access to the gardens. Throughout the residence, natural materials and soft colours maintain a calm continuity between rooms, while timber floors, marble bathrooms, and high ceilings reinforce the home’s understated elegance.
Nemora comprises five bedrooms and five bathrooms, including a ground-floor bedroom suited for guests or single-level living. The upper-floor bedrooms enjoy elevated views across the estate and the surrounding Corfiot countryside, where layers of green landscape extend toward distant hillsides. Large windows on multiple elevations allow cross ventilation and natural airflow throughout the warmer months, an architectural quality long associated with traditional island residences.
The grounds are an essential part of the property’s character. Expansive lawns unfold around the house, opening into shaded areas beneath mature trees and quieter garden corners that feel entirely secluded. At the centre of the outdoor living spaces sits a stone-built gazebo with a pergola roof draped in climbing vines, creating a natural setting for outdoor dining and long summer afternoons. Brick terraces surrounding the house remain cool underfoot even during the height of summer, while the orientation of the estate allows sunlight to move gradually across the gardens throughout the day.
Despite its peaceful rural setting, Nemora remains exceptionally well connected. Kombitsi village is within walking distance, offering traditional tavernas and local daily life, while Corfu Town, with its UNESCO-listed Old Town, marinas, restaurants, and cultural landmarks, is only a short drive away. Several beaches along the west coast can also be reached easily from the property.
Nemora is a residence defined by proportion, landscape, and quiet permanence — a Corfiot estate where mature gardens, classical architecture, and soft natural light shape daily life with understated elegance.

Sitting in the most northwesterly corner of Greece, Corfu is an elegant and cosmopolitan island, wearing the mantle of its colourful Venetian history with style. Corfu Real Estate is one of the most established in Greece.
‘Somewhere between Calabria and Corfu, the blue really begins… you are aware of a change in the heart of things: aware of the horizon beginning to stain at the rim of the world: aware of islands coming out of the darkness to meet you’. So begins Lawrence Durrell’s 1945 ode to Corfu, Prospero’s Cell. Even today, visitors to the island often arrive by sea, approaching from Italy in the west of the Greek mainland in the east.
In the early morning sunlight, the pastel-hued houses overlook Corfu Town’s historic port. They create a charming medley of slender levels interconnected by narrow alleyways. Laundry hangs from every balcony, resembling vibrant festive bunting swaying in the breeze.
Towering Venetian mansions, bearing ancient coats of colourful paint softened by countless winters, give town visitors the sensation of stepping into a watercolour masterpiece.
Corfu has rightfully earned its reputation as Greece’s music capital
The island boasts a multitude of music associations, orchestras, bands, and a musical tradition dating back 400 years to the Venetian era of the island.
At the heart of the town lies a broad tree-lined promenade known as the Spianada. Elegant French arcades reminiscent of Rue de Rivoli echo through the air. An intriguing British influence can be discovered on this grand square. It transforms into a cricket pitch during the summer, a unique feature as it’s the only operational sports field within a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Meanwhile, the Corfiot countryside showcases a mournful beauty unparalleled across Greece. It contrasts starkly with the stark barrenness of the Aegean. Drenched in brilliant white sunlight during summer, the island undergoes a sublime transformation thanks to winter rains. This causes lush greenery to blanket the inland valleys, which are thickly carpeted with wildflowers and adorned with gnarled olive trees, while dense groves of swaying cypresses punctuate the landscape.
In the sophisticated northeast, known as “Kensington-on-Sea,” you’ll find the finest real estate in Greece. The imposing summer villa of the Rothschild family anchors it. Here, the luxury villa lifestyle reigns supreme. Hillside properties are secluded amidst the landscape, boasting private infinity pools and awe-inspiring sea views. The enigmatic Epirote mountains, crowned in snow, loom mysteriously in the east.
