House Corfu (Greece)
Set within 100,000 sqm (1,076,391 sq.ft.) of historic gardens and ancient olive groves near Corfu Town, Antico Rosso is a restored estate of exceptional scale and heritage. Originally constructed in the 17th century upon the ruins of a 13th-century monastery, the property reflects the architectural influence of the great Corfiot estates of its era, with long colonnades, stone arcades, internal courtyards and deep terracotta façades softened by decades of Mediterranean light. A formal stone pathway leads through the grounds toward the principal residence, where symmetrical façades, arched galleries and shuttered windows create a sense of quiet grandeur. Mature palms, cypress trees and extensive olive groves surround the estate, while enclosed courtyards and garden walls preserve privacy throughout the property. Though immersed in complete seclusion, the estate remains only a short drive from Corfu Town, the marina, the airport and the island’s western coastline. The restoration has focused on preserving the original architectural character while completing the essential structural and reconstruction works required for modern use. Stone arches, vaulted passageways, internal cloisters and traditional masonry have been carefully retained, allowing the next owner to complete the interiors according to their own vision. The atmosphere throughout the estate remains authentic and restrained, with many original architectural details still visible across the buildings. The main residence extends across one and two levels around a central courtyard and measures approximately 1,750 sqm (18,837 sq.ft.). Large reception rooms, former service quarters and interconnected gallery spaces create substantial internal volume, while wide openings allow natural light to move through the building throughout the day. A 20-metre indoor swimming pool has already been integrated into the structure, positioned beneath high ceilings within one of the estate’s restored wings. Additional buildings include an old olive press, auxiliary residences and several outbuildings, bringing the total built area to approximately 2,500 sqm (26,910 sq.ft.). The scale of the estate allows flexibility for private residential use, hospitality, wellness or a multi-generational family retreat, while preserving the integrity of its historical layout. The surrounding landscape forms an essential part of the property’s identity. Stone pathways pass through olive groves and formal gardens, while shaded courtyards create cooler outdoor areas during the summer months. The estate’s positioning within mature vegetation naturally moderates temperature and reinforces the sense of privacy across the grounds.

House with garden and terrace Mitilini (Greece)
Hidden within an olive grove on the coastline of Lesvos, Pelagos sits above a sheltered bay where the sea remains calm through most of the year. The house is positioned only a short distance from the shoreline, connected to the water by a private pathway and dock, while the surrounding landscape remains largely untouched, with olive trees, low hills and quiet coves extending along the coast. Despite the sense of seclusion, Mytilene Airport can be reached within approximately 25 minutes by car. The architecture is contemporary and restrained, designed to sit quietly within the landscape rather than dominate it. Arranged across two principal levels with additional lower-ground accommodation, the residence extends to approximately 530 sqm (5,705 sqft), with floor-to-ceiling glazing opening the interiors directly towards the bay. Nearly every room faces the water, while the orientation allows natural light to move gradually through the house from early morning until evening. The principal living spaces are open and minimal in character, combining polished stone flooring, pale surfaces and warm timber detailing with wide uninterrupted expanses of glass. The kitchen, dining and sitting areas unfold along the seaward façade and connect directly to more than 500 sqm (5,382 sqft) of terraces overlooking the bay. Reflections from the water move softly across the interiors throughout the day, particularly during the late afternoon as the light lowers across the opposite hillside. Five bedrooms and six bathrooms continue the same restrained architectural language and connection to the landscape. Several bedrooms face uninterrupted sea views, while others open onto quieter terraces and garden areas shaded by mature olive trees. The bathrooms remain simple and contemporary, finished in stone and glass with natural light integrated throughout. The outdoor areas become a natural extension of the house during the summer months. A long infinity-edge pool extends towards the bay, visually merging with the sea below, while the surrounding terraces create a series of quieter spaces positioned between the house, the landscape and the water. Along the shoreline, the private dock allows direct access to the bay and secure anchorage protected from prevailing winds. The grounds extend across more than 4,000 sqm (43,056 sqft) and retain much of the character of the original olive grove. Mature trees provide natural shade throughout the property, while stone retaining walls and planted terraces integrate the architecture carefully into the terrain. In the evening, the surface of the bay becomes almost still, reflecting the final light back towards the house and the hillside beyond. Pelagos combines contemporary waterfront architecture with one of the quieter coastal settings in the Aegean, defined as much by its landscape and privacy as by the residence itself. Eligible for the Greek Golden Visa and Non Dom Programme.
