KARAKOUSI

Voted all-time favourite by our Corfu team, this is a masterpiece of understated elegance for sale in popular north-east Corfu. Beautifully designed, traditionally styled and bursting with modern conveniences.

The hills above the north-east coast of Corfu are scattered with luxury villas and converted farmhouses, all of them fitting well into the background of olive groves, endless blue skies and stunning sea views. Karakousi, however, manages to stand apart, possibly because of its simple design.

The architect has carefully avoided all unnecessary frills and furbelows and the result is a rectangular stone and plaster house reminiscent of an olive press, painted in muted tones to help the house blend with its surroundings.

Inside there are the huge open plan spaces that today's buyer is looking for. An open plan living room with fireplace is visually separated from the kitchen by a feature wall, leaving access free on both sides.

Three bedrooms with en suite bathrooms are complemented by a further two smaller bathrooms and the house benefits from underfloor heating and air conditioning.

The outside areas are ideally suited to summer living - with a huge covered terrace dining area looking over the swimming pool towards the sea, and an outdoor kitchen including barbecue area, work surfaces and a sink.

This is an ideal property for the upper end rental market, either through a villa company or privately.
