Sonata occupies an elevated hillside position above Naoussa, where the landscape of Paros opens towards the sea and the rolling contours of the island beyond. Designed by a noted architect in 2004, the residence combines the clarity of Cycladic architecture with a more grounded material expression, using local stone and whitewashed volumes to establish a natural relationship with its surroundings.
The property extends across 13,750 sqm (148,003 sq.ft.) of land, with the house carefully positioned to take advantage of both the views and the topography. The architecture follows the contours of the hillside, creating a sequence of interconnected indoor and outdoor spaces that feel sheltered while remaining fully open to the surrounding landscape. From throughout the property, long views extend across Naoussa Bay, the Aegean and the distant Cycladic horizon.
The residence is arranged across two distinct levels. The lower level is integrated into the terrain through the use of exposed local stone, anchoring the building within the hillside, while the upper white volumes capture the changing light throughout the day. Broad openings frame the landscape and encourage natural airflow through the interiors during the warmer months, reinforcing the connection between the house and its setting.
Inside, the atmosphere is contemporary and restrained, defined by generous proportions, natural materials and carefully considered transitions between spaces. The principal living and dining area unfolds as a single open volume connected directly to the terraces beyond. Large openings allow the landscape to remain a constant presence throughout the interiors, while the material palette introduces warmth and texture without distraction. A separate study provides a more private area within the house, maintaining the same architectural simplicity and sense of calm.
Five bedrooms are distributed to maximise privacy and orientation towards the views. Each occupies a distinct position within the overall composition of the house, creating a sense of independence while remaining connected to the wider residence. The accompanying bathrooms continue the architectural language through clean lines, natural materials and understated detailing.
The outdoor areas are conceived as an extension of the architecture itself, following the natural levels of the site and creating multiple points from which to experience the changing landscape. The swimming pool is positioned to face the open views across Naoussa Bay, while the surrounding terraces establish a seamless relationship between the residence and its setting. Throughout the day, shifting light moves across the stone surfaces and white façades, emphasising the strong connection between the architecture and the Cycladic landscape.
Although notably private, Sonata remains just minutes from the centre of Naoussa and within easy reach of some of Paros’ most sought-after beaches, as well as Paroikia and the port. The property combines architectural clarity, generous land holdings and a privileged hillside position within one of the island’s most established residential locations.
