Ostria

Set above the coastline near Ornos, this stone-built villa looks west across the Aegean toward a chain of neighbouring islands, with uninterrupted sea and sunset views from almost every terrace and principal room. Built in the traditional Cycladic style, the property combines thick stone walls, whitewashed volumes and timber ceilings with wide outdoor living spaces designed around the changing light of Mykonos.

The house is arranged across multiple levels, allowing each part of the property to open naturally toward the sea. The main living and dining area sits at the heart of the villa beneath high wooden ceilings, where large openings frame the horizon and bring the exterior terraces directly into the interior spaces. The atmosphere is informal and relaxed, with natural stone flooring, exposed timber beams and soft light moving through the rooms throughout the day.

The kitchen continues the same restrained palette, with warm wooden cabinetry and built-in alcoves that reflect the island’s traditional architecture. Adjacent dining and sitting areas extend naturally onto the shaded pergola terrace, creating a continuous indoor-outdoor flow well suited to long summer stays.

Accommodation includes six bedrooms and three bathrooms, along with a separate guest house positioned independently from the main residence. Several bedrooms open directly onto terraces or private outdoor corners facing the sea, while upper-level rooms benefit from elevated sunset views across the coastline and neighbouring islands. The interiors remain simple and grounded, with white walls, timber ceilings and natural materials maintaining the calm character of the property throughout.

Outside, the villa unfolds around a broad stone terrace and a large swimming pool positioned to face the open horizon. Built-in seating areas, shaded dining spaces and wide sun decks are distributed across the grounds, allowing for both privacy and larger gatherings. A traditional stone arch beside the pool frames the sea beyond, while the elevated setting captures the changing colours of the western sky from afternoon through dusk.

The outdoor dining pergola sits slightly apart from the main pool terrace, creating shelter from the summer sun while remaining fully connected to the surrounding views. In the early evening, the stone terraces retain the warmth of the day as the sea darkens gradually beyond the coastline.

Although peaceful and private, the property remains within close reach of Ornos, Mykonos Town and several of the island’s well-known beaches, combining easy access with a distinctly residential atmosphere.
