Anais

Set within the countryside surrounding Aliki in southern Paros, Anais occupies a 4,100 sqm (44,132 sq.ft.) plot with open views towards Antiparos and the Aegean Sea. Positioned within an established landscape of cultivated land and mature Mediterranean planting, the property enjoys a sense of privacy while remaining closely connected to the coastline and nearby village life. The setting combines the openness of the southern Parian landscape with a distinctly residential atmosphere that has evolved naturally over time.

Extending across approximately 267 sqm (2,874 sq.ft.), the residence reflects a traditional Cycladic approach to architecture, shaped by simplicity, proportion and a close relationship with its surroundings. The composition of low whitewashed volumes follows the natural character of the site, creating a house that feels settled within the landscape rather than imposed upon it. Terraces, external staircases and sheltered outdoor spaces are integrated into the architecture, allowing the property to respond naturally to light, views and seasonal winds.

The interiors maintain the same sense of authenticity and ease. Principal living spaces are connected through arched openings and arranged to capture natural light from multiple directions throughout the day. Traditional architectural elements, including exposed timber ceilings and handcrafted detailing, contribute to a warm and understated atmosphere, while large openings maintain a continuous visual connection with the surrounding countryside and the sea beyond.

The main living and dining areas form the centre of the house, creating a sequence of spaces that flow naturally towards the outdoor terraces. The layout prioritises openness and comfort, allowing the property to adapt equally well to quiet winter months and the more relaxed rhythm of summer living. Throughout the house, the emphasis remains on proportion, natural materials and the relationship between interior spaces and the landscape outside.

Five bedrooms and three bathrooms are arranged across the residence, several enjoying direct access to terraces or elevated views towards Antiparos and the western coastline. The accommodation follows the same restrained architectural language as the principal living areas, with a focus on light, airflow and connection to the wider setting.

Outdoor spaces form an integral part of the property. A series of covered terraces and sheltered areas extend the living environment beyond the walls of the house, while the surrounding grounds provide a gradual transition between the residence and the wider landscape. The orientation towards the west allows long views across the sea, particularly as the afternoon light settles over the coastline and the silhouette of Antiparos becomes more pronounced against the horizon.

The property enjoys a peaceful position close to Aliki, one of Paros’ most established seaside villages, known for its harbour, waterfront tavernas and sheltered beaches. Punta, with direct access to Antiparos, is nearby, while the southern coastline of Paros remains easily accessible from the property. The combination of traditional architecture, mature surroundings and open sea views creates a residence that feels closely connected to the enduring character of southern Paros.
