VILLA SOULAROU, Karoubatika

Spacious one-storey villa with the "wow factor" in large landscaped grounds with swimming pool. Decorated with flair combining traditional features with modern conveniences to achieve the best of both worlds. Stunning long-distance views. New price from March 2007.

Situated on a plateau at the top of a fairly steep incline, this new villa has breathtaking views over a large section of the island, including the Ionian Sea and Albania beyond. Ferry boats and cruise ships are visible, especially at night, from the many outside covered terraces, barbecue area and swimming pool.

The extensive grounds are well-maintained, with an automatic watering system installed, and consist of paved patios, a newly paved driveway and parking area, lawns and flower beds, as well as some "natural" areas of local plants and olive trees.

The house itself is built in a ranch style - long and low and easy to maintain. Floors are attractively tiled, and the walls sponge-painted in pastel Mediterranean tones. The large living room has a particularly attractive lime-washed wood ceiling, based on a traditional Corfiot design using wide planks of wood, with a wide border. The focal point of this room is a distinctive three-tier stone fireplace.

A hallway with cloakroom divides the living areas from the bedrooms, and there is a separate kitchen with limed-wood furniture and access to the outside terraces. A large laundry room and study/office complete the accommodation in the living section of the house.

There are four ensuite bedrooms - all with plenty of storage space, and the master bedroom boasts twin basins, a huge bath and a separate shower. There is also a fireplace in the master bedroom.

Outside there is a double garage, and a large workshop and separate store, which could potentially be converted into guest or staff accommodation.

This is a beautiful property within easy reach of Corfu town and the west coast beaches, built to extremely high standards by its builder/owner.

Viewing recommended!
