Set high above Ancient Epidaurus with uninterrupted views across the Saronic Gulf, Vivant is a substantial private residence immersed in one of the Peloponnese’s most verdant coastal landscapes. Surrounded by pine-covered hillsides and mature Mediterranean gardens, the property occupies approximately 6,466 sqm of land, positioned to capture the changing light across the sea from morning through sunset.
The approach winds gradually upward through landscaped grounds planted with cypress, palms, olive trees, and flowering bougainvillea, revealing a residence that sits quietly within its natural surroundings rather than dominating them. From nearly every part of the estate, the eye is drawn outward toward the coastline, small islands scattered across the gulf, and the mountainous horizon beyond.
The main residence unfolds across approximately 553 sqm, designed with a strong connection between interior living spaces and the expansive terraces surrounding the house. Wide floor-to-ceiling openings allow the sea views to remain constantly present while bringing natural light deep into the interiors. The principal living and dining areas occupy the heart of the home, arranged in an open-plan layout that balances generous scale with a calm, understated atmosphere. Polished stone floors, soft neutral tones, and broad glazing create interiors that feel cool and airy during the summer months.
Adjacent to the main reception spaces, the kitchen combines functionality with direct access to the outdoor dining terraces, allowing daily living to move naturally between inside and out. A principal bedroom suite on this level enjoys direct views toward the gulf, opening onto the terraces and pool area.
Separate guest accommodation has been carefully integrated into the layout of the estate to preserve privacy and independence. Three guest suites are positioned in an adjoining structure beside the main house, each opening directly toward the pool terraces and gardens. Their placement creates a quieter rhythm across the property, where individual spaces remain connected while retaining separation from the principal residence.
The infinity pool stretches toward the sea at the edge of the terrace, visually merging with the blue of the gulf beyond. Wide stone terraces surrounding the pool provide shaded and open-air areas throughout the day, while the elevation of the site allows constant movement of sea air across the outdoor spaces. In the late afternoon, the terraces take on the warmer tones of the surrounding hills as the sun lowers behind the mountains.
Below the main living areas, the lower level contains two additional bedrooms overlooking the gardens, alongside staff accommodation, storage areas, and a fully equipped gym with sauna. The organisation of the residence allows larger gatherings while still maintaining quieter, more private areas throughout the estate.
The gardens themselves are a defining feature of the property. Carefully maintained pathways move through dense planting and mature trees, creating layers of greenery uncommon for coastal estates in this part of Greece. Bright flowering plants soften the stone retaining walls and terraces, while the surrounding hillsides create a sense of complete seclusion despite the property’s proximity to the village and waterfront.
Ancient Epidaurus remains one of the Peloponnese’s most historically significant and naturally beautiful regions, known for its archaeological heritage, small harbour, and protected coastline. The Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus and the Sanctuary of Asclepius lie within easy reach, grounding the area in a cultural landscape that has remained remarkably intact over centuries.
