Property Description

Set on a secluded hillside near Agios Spyridonas on Corfu’s northeastern coast, this private estate extends across 7,000 sqm (75,347 sq.ft.) of land overlooking the Ionian Sea. Arranged as a collection of independent residences dispersed across the landscape, the property has the character of a small coastal retreat, where buildings, gardens and outdoor spaces are carefully positioned to preserve privacy while maintaining a constant visual connection to the water.
The estate comprises a main residence, two independent bungalows and a separate cottage, together creating a flexible layout that accommodates both family living and guest accommodation. Rather than functioning as a single large house, the property unfolds gradually across the hillside, with each residence occupying its own position within the grounds. Traditional Corfiot architecture defines the estate throughout, with stone construction, tiled roofs and shaded verandas contributing to a sense of permanence and connection to the local landscape.
Interiors follow a warm and understated aesthetic rooted in natural materials and traditional craftsmanship. Living spaces are designed to remain closely connected to the outdoors, with direct access to terraces and gardens, while the overall atmosphere feels relaxed and informal. The arrangement of the residences allows occupants to enjoy independence and privacy without losing the cohesion of the estate as a whole.
Across the property, there are nine bedrooms and six bathrooms, distributed between the various residences. The separate cottage occupies one of the more private positions within the estate and benefits from its own entrance, parking area and independent outdoor spaces, creating a self-contained residence within the wider property.
Outdoor living forms an integral part of the estate. Terraces, courtyards and shaded seating areas are distributed throughout the grounds, creating a variety of spaces that respond to different times of day and changing light conditions. The swimming pools are positioned discreetly within the landscape, while the hillside setting allows open views towards the sea from multiple points across the property. Mature planting softens the transition between architecture and landscape, reinforcing the feeling of seclusion.
A private path leads directly from the estate to a quiet beach below, while the larger beach of Agios Spyridonas is located approximately 500 metres away. The surrounding area remains peaceful and residential, with traditional villages, tavernas and small harbours easily accessible along the coast.
The elevated position of the estate allows it to benefit from both privacy and open sea views, while its layout responds naturally to the contours of the hillside. The result is a property that feels embedded within its surroundings, where the relationship between land, architecture and sea remains the defining characteristic throughout.

Area Description

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.
