| DESCRIPTION |
| For the first time in over 30 years this beautiful villa has been placed on the market, so this is indeed a very rare opportunity to acquire a single storey villa, designed by an Italian architect, nestled discreetly in an elevated position just 20 paces from the beach in Paleokastritsa, on the west coast of Corfu.
Tucked away behind a private gate at the end of a dead end lane, this property sits in a sheltered position amongst 1,000 square metres of mature garden overlooking the beach, sea and surrounding cliffs and hills. Perched on the mountain top above it is the traditional old village of Lakones where many of the residents of Paleokastritsa derive from. In the 1930s when the property was constructed, building this close to the sea was permitted, but regluations have since changed and so it is now impossible to recreate such a lovely residence. The property comprises a lounge and study with log burning fire place, dining room, summer house annex, kitchen, master bedroom suite with bathroom and a communal bathroom and 3 further bedrooms.
Other features include back up water storage, electronic management system for the heating system, car parking rights detailed in the freehold title deeds, direct access to the beach/sea.
The property's specification reflects that of a home, not holiday accommodation.
There is scope to add value through upgrading of the summer house, modernisation, installation of a swimming pool and landscaping.
It is a private, elegant and understated villa. Such properties are hard to find and are even more rare this close to the sea.
