Elissia sits above the sheltered bay of Agios Stefanos in north-east Corfu, looking across the Ionian toward the mountains of Albania beyond. From its elevated position, the house follows the natural slope of the hillside, allowing nearly every room and terrace to remain open to the sea. The harbour below moves at a slower rhythm than much of the island: fishing boats crossing the bay early in the morning, sailboats anchored offshore through the afternoon, and the lights of the waterfront appearing gradually as evening settles over the coast.
Arranged across three levels, the villa combines generous interior proportions with broad outdoor living areas designed around the view. The architecture is simple and clean-lined, with pale façades, shaded verandas and wide openings that allow light to move easily through the house throughout the day. Inside, the atmosphere remains calm and practical rather than formal, with neutral tones, tiled floors and soft natural light reflecting off the sea beyond the windows.
The main entrance opens into the principal living level, where sitting and dining areas are arranged in an open-plan layout facing outward toward the terraces. Large sliding doors frame uninterrupted views across the bay and allow the interior spaces to extend naturally outside. The kitchen connects directly to the dining area and terraces, making the house particularly comfortable for long summer stays when daily life moves continuously between indoors and out. A fireplace anchors the living room during the cooler months, while wide covered verandas provide shade throughout the height of summer.
The four bedrooms are distributed across the villa’s three levels, each positioned to maintain privacy while still benefitting from the surrounding landscape and sea views. Several rooms open directly onto balconies or terraces overlooking the bay, where the early morning light arrives softly across the water before reaching the hillside behind the house. The interiors remain understated and bright, with large windows, pale finishes and simple furnishings that keep the focus on the setting outside.
The outdoor areas are designed as a continuation of the house itself. Wide stone terraces surround the swimming pool, while a pergola-covered sitting area and outdoor dining space create sheltered areas throughout the day. An outdoor kitchen and built-in barbecue sit beside the main entertaining terrace, positioned to face the water and evening light across the bay. From the pool terrace, the coastline unfolds gradually toward Agios Stefanos harbour below, with uninterrupted views extending far across the Ionian.
The property is located within walking distance of the beach and harbour, allowing easy access to the restaurants and waterfront cafés of Agios Stefanos while still maintaining a strong sense of privacy and elevation above the bay. Corfu Town and the airport are approximately 45 minutes away by car, making the villa well suited both as a seasonal residence and for extended stays throughout the year.
