Villa Paleros (Prévéza)

From the edge of the infinity pool, the view sweeps over the rooftops of Paleros to the bay, then across the water to Lefkada’s mountains. Completed in 2022, this single-storey villa is sold furnished and in as-new condition.

The villa unfolds over a single level and two wings. The main wing includes an open-plan living/dining room and kitchen, plus the master bedroom with an ensuite bathroom, fitted with a shower, WC and vanity unit. The kitchen is fully equipped with an oven, microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator, separate freezer, washing machine and a wine cooler. A guest WC completes this wing. Tall sliding doors open up from the living room and the master bedroom onto the pool terrace and garden. The villa’s west wing houses two more bedrooms and a shared bathroom with a double vanity unit, shower, and separate WC. Both bedrooms have direct access to the garden and the pool area via tall sliding patio doors. Between the wings sits a sheltered, open-air kitchen and dining area, fitted with a sink and a ceiling fan for those hot summer evenings.

Practical details have been thought through. All windows have insect screens, and every room apart from the bathrooms has electric roller shutters for shade and security. 4 air-conditioning units keep the house cool in summer, and electric heaters keep it warm in the cooler months. A 120-litre solar water heater provides hot water, and the house is connected to the mains water supply and the municipal sewage system. The house has an alarm system, and a 4G/5G modem provides internet.

The 718 sqm plot is a large private garden, offering space and privacy around the house. A pergola provides a shaded outdoor living area, with a 2 x 3 m storage room built in for garden furniture, tools and pool equipment.

The salt-water infinity pool measures 3 x 7 m and is about 1.35 m deep. Salt-water systems are gentler on skin and eyes than standard chlorine pools and are simple to maintain, which suits owners who spend part of the year away. A private parking space completes the plot.

This is a house that is easy to arrive at and easy to leave. Being new, single-storey and low-maintenance, it asks little of its owners between visits. Days can begin with a swim and breakfast under the pergola, continue at one of the beaches along the coast, and end at a taverna on the Paleros waterfront as the light fades over Lefkada. Sailors are well placed too: Paleros has a harbour and is a popular starting point for exploring the Ionian islands by boat. The property strikes an ideal balance between privacy and connection, offering a comfortable sense of seclusion without feeling isolated.

The Paleros and Lefkada area has an established holiday market, with seasonal flights into Aktion Airport, only a 25-minute drive away, and a strong following among sailing enthusiasts and families. A new villa with a private infinity pool and sea views clearly appeals to holiday guests.

Paleros is a coastal village of around 2,000 residents on the Ionian shore of mainland Greece, facing Lefkada. It keeps a lived-in, local feel year-round, with a working harbour, a waterfront lined with cafés and tavernas, and everyday shops. The surrounding coast offers a choice of beaches, from the village beach to quieter coves such as Pogonia and Vathiavali, while Lefkada, with its own beaches and nightlife, is a short drive across the causeway. Inland, the hills and lakes of Aitoloakarnania offer quiet walking and cycling routes, and the old town of Preveza, with its waterfront and nearby Roman Nikopolis, makes for an easy day trip.
