La Casa Sotto Gli Alberi

Set within a mature garden and only 280 metres from the sea, this charming three-bedroom home combines distinctive architecture, traditional Cycladic character and a warm European influence. Located in Drios, it offers privacy, comfort and all the features required for year-round living.

The villa is surrounded by a Mediterranean oasis filled with oleander, jasmine, bougainvillea, three frangipani trees and a jacaranda tree with beautiful blue blossoms. The property also benefits from its own private olive grove.

A few steps lead to the main terrace and the new 4 x 2-metre swimming pool, completed in September 2026 and framed by a custom-built solid-wood deck. Shaded sitting areas, an outdoor dining and barbecue space create an inviting setting for relaxed summer days and cocktails by the pool. An outdoor shower with hot and cold water is set beneath a mature carob tree.

The residence extends across two levels, offering 171 sq.m. of interior space. The ground floor features a comfortable living room with a fireplace, a kitchen and dining area, as well as one bedroom and a bathroom. Natural materials, including wooden details and marble flooring, contribute to the home’s warm and timeless atmosphere.

The upper floor includes two further bedrooms and a shared bathroom. One bedroom opens onto two balconies, while the other enjoys a large private terrace with a sitting area and direct sea views. On that floor there is another balcony where you can sit under a big tree. Throughout the house, the rooms connect naturally with balconies or private outdoor spaces.

Built in 2005 and renovated in 2026, the property is presented in excellent condition. It features 50-centimetre-thick exterior walls, EXPA doors, double-glazed windows and high-quality built-in insect screens. Air-conditioning units and infrared heating panels in every room, together with an energy-efficient fireplace, make the house comfortable throughout the year. Further features include a solar water heater, electrical appliances and a storage area.

The location is quiet yet central, with shops, cafés, tavernas, restaurants and boutiques all within easy walking distance. Daily life can be enjoyed without the need for a car, making this a welcoming island home for both summer stays and year-round living.
