Views from this hillside villa are sublime

Nestled on a hill on the stunning Ionian island of Lefkada, this Greek villa offers the ideal property from which to enjoy the best this beautiful destination has to offer, plus the luxurious seclusion and stunning views we’d all like to have out of our kitchen window…

Spacious driveway starts the splendour of this Scandi-touched home

Night or day, the entrance to this impressive villa is a welcoming prospect. The interiors are elegant and contemporary, touched with a hint of Scandinavian style to make this home comfortable yet chic.

The ground floor is designed around multiple terraces; sliding doors create a seamless flow between out and in

The main section of the house is designed around two terraces, making use of large windows and sliding doors to create a sense of outdoor living even within the walls of the property. There is an open-plan sitting and dining area which opens onto the pool and the outdoor cooking area: a superb hub for entertaining all your friends and optimising the glorious setting.

Large dining area opens onto the terraces where seating areas provide more space for entertaining

The kitchen also has ample space for dining and is kitted out with all the latest conveniences without seeming to be – the slick, sleek design characteristic of the whole house is clearly evident here.

Neat but exquisitely fitted, the wood-toned kitchen is a beautiful space for food prep

In addition to a guest WC, this main floor also has one of the five bedrooms, which could make it ideal for guests in need of the privacy of their own suite. This room has a spacious sleeping area, a dressing area and an en-suite, in addition to a seating area and a terrace.

Five bedrooms are spread across the property and offer impressive views and access to terraces

The bathroom is – as all the bathrooms are – eye-catching and impeccably designed, almost more of an art piece than an area for showering (although the latter is delivered superbly!).

Elegant design in the bathrooms makes these areas more art work than ablutions

Many of the bedrooms could be deemed suites as they offer such space and privacy, some with seating areas and private terraces to allow a busy household to find spaces of contemplation and solitude.

Spacious bedrooms include seating areas for admiring the pool and the sea beyond

There are five bedrooms in total and a full house will surely spend much of the shared time out of doors in the beautiful grounds that surround the main villa.

The infinity pool is the feature of the back terrace, stretching towards the seemingly endless sea

The infinity pool stretches the length of the villa and hangs over the beautiful sea view that the hillside location of the space affords the property. It is surrounded by seating areas for dining and lounging options at different times of the day. You’ll soon find your favourite ‘sunset spot’.

Seating areas have been carefully placed for enjoying sunrises or sunsets

The outdoor kitchen area is just as sophisticated as the indoor facilities, complete with marble worktops, a sink and a barbecue. It will be a serene spot to grill your fresh fish amid the scent of pines, as your guests splash happily in the swimming pool. The dining area will provide one of the most stunning views you will have ever enjoyed with a meal.

A well-equipped outdoor kitchen and covered dining area are bound to be much used through the warm summer days

Despite its island status, Lefkada is accessible via a causeway by car or bus, with the closest airport situated 20km away: Preveza Aktion Airport. In addition to the beautiful beaches and some impressive historical sites, the island has many cafes, bars and restaurants. In Lefkada town, the marina comes alive on summer evenings, but day time pursuits include visiting the museum and the serene ‘Poet’s Garden’.
