The house stands within 2 acres of stunning mature gardens, looking north up the Corfu channel. Just below the terrace walls is a secluded shingle beach and private jetty; within the grounds, there’s a tennis court and pool.
The recent meticulous renovation ensures this beautiful home retains its historic character but with a new sense of vibrancy and modern luxuries. On the ground floor, there’s an elegant, high-ceilinged drawing and dining room and an amazing bathroom containing a marble bath, originally from Empress Elizabeth (Sisi) of Austria’s summer residence. Doors on this floor give access to both the gardens and the outdoor dining terrace. Bedrooms are on the upper two floors, all with stripped wooden floors, rugs, beds with supremely comfortable mattresses and modern en-suites.
If you’ve watched ‘The Durrells’, you will recognise this spot, with the house behind and the sea in front. A further eating area is found to the side of the house, shaded by a canopy. Within the mature gardens are places to sit in both sun and shade, whilst the sea here is wonderful for snorkelling and searching for sea glass. Or take in the views from the sun loungers set out on the jetty.
A 15-minute drive or, for the easiest commute, a short boat ride will take you directly to the Old Town. There are some good local tavernas within a short walk of the villa, and Gouvia marina can be reached by foot in around 10 minutes with a variety of shops and restaurants. Gouvia also has an abundance of boats to hire, from self-drives to large dayboats. Arrange for collection from the villa's jetty to explore the coves and waterfront tavernas in the northeast or head south to Boukari Fish Taverna, one of the island's favourites.
