Idyllische Umgebung

Occupying a south-east facing slope on the Kommeno headland, one of Corfu’s most established residential areas, this substantial estate looks across the channel toward the opposite shoreline, with mature pine and olive trees enclosing the grounds on three sides. The house sits quietly within the landscape, its terracotta-toned render, brick-arched loggias and layered terraces giving it the atmosphere of a property shaped gradually over time rather than recently imposed upon the land.

Arranged across three levels that follow the natural descent of the hillside, each floor opens directly onto terraces or garden spaces, allowing the house to remain closely connected to its surroundings throughout. The principal reception rooms occupy the seaward side of the main floor: a generous living room and adjoining dining area separated by a sculptural spiral staircase, with travertine flooring running throughout and floor-to-ceiling glazing framing the channel view across the entire façade. Morning light moves steadily through these rooms and remains soft into the afternoon, while the stone floors retain a coolness underfoot even during the height of summer.

Eight bedrooms are distributed across the three levels, allowing the property to function comfortably both as a private residence and as a house intended for extended family stays. The principal suite opens onto its own terrace facing directly towards the water, while a separate library and study sit slightly apart from the main entertaining areas, providing quieter rooms within the wider plan of the house. Three fully equipped kitchens make it possible to operate sections of the property independently when needed, particularly for guest accommodation.

The grounds extend across 3,500 sqm and are planted with mature cypress, olive, rosemary and oleander. Stone pathways descend gradually through the terraced gardens towards the swimming pool, which occupies a lower level sheltered by tall cypress trees on three sides. The pale limestone surrounding the pool absorbs warmth from the morning sun and holds it well into the evening hours. On the western side of the estate, a separate guest cottage sits within its own enclosed courtyard, where an antique olive-press millstone remains set into the lawn — a quiet reminder of the long agricultural history of this part of Corfu.

One of the most distinctive areas of the property is the upper terrace beneath the brick loggia, where a long iron-and-glass dining table faces directly across the channel. As the afternoon light begins to soften, the terracotta façade takes on deeper tones reflected from the water below, and the terrace gradually cools beneath the sea air moving through the headland. The rosemary planted along the terrace wall releases its scent as evening arrives, while the first lights begin appearing across the opposite shore one by one.

The estate is equipped with air conditioning, security systems and private parking, combining the scale and privacy of a substantial Corfu residence with immediate access to the coastline and to Corfu Town beyond.
