Both are surrounded by wonderful terraces overlooking the sea, gardens and land with trees and Mediterranean flora. VILLA JURA The villa is distributed over two levels. All the bedrooms are designed to maximize their sea view position and to allow easy access to outside areas. The main entrance on the upper floor leads to the bright open living area and the eat-in kitchen. The roof garden is perfectly enjoyable with a sun deck and a breathtaking view. The terraces measure a total of approximately 500 m2. The living area is furnished with contemporary pieces gathered around an elegant fireplace, while the focal point of the contemporary eat-in kitchen is an antique Indian teak cabinet that doubles as an island. Large glass windows in each of these areas open onto the surrounding terrace offering stunning views. A hallway leads from the living area to the two double bedrooms one of which has an en-suite bathroom, and to a second bathroom. Both bedrooms have sea views and large glass doors that access the terrace. The remaining rooms are located on the lower floor which is accessed externally via a stone staircase.

Arguably the best ones are to be found along the east coast and on the southern tip. One such, just a 10-minute drive north, is Agios Dimitrios, whose splendid white sands and intense blue waters are irresistible. The north of the island also boasts some idyllic coves and beaches but most of these are only accessible by boat: an excellent reason to rent one for your stay.

Country house for sale - Gorgeous luxury estate with breathtaking views and unsurpassed privacy Contemporary living surrounded by natural beauty Whoever says that size does not matter has not seen this home. Located in the south of Greece’s enchanting Pelion region and situated on almost four acres of unspoiled land, this contemporary mansion is surrounded by hundreds of 250 year old olive trees – your olive trees. The villa features almost 5250 square feet of living space and offers all the upscale amenities and options even the most demanding home owner could desire or dream of. Built in 2003, this custom home was designed with luxury living in mind. Aside from its stunning location, which offers exhilarating sea and mountain views, unsurpassed privacy and close proximity to the beach (two minutes by car), this estate was constructed to the highest standards and with a focus on quality and sustainabilty. Despite its generous size, the villa still retains the character and warmth of a family home, though, without appearing ostentatious. Surrounded by unmolested nature, it strikes a perfect balance between style and comfort, fully embraced by its pristine environment. Offering ample living space for one or even two families, the estate’s layout incorporates two generously sized, separate wings with living quarters and a fully finished souterrain/basement. Due to changes in the Greek legislature, homes of this size will no longer be approved, which makes this property stand out even more, greatly increasing its desirability and value: You will simply not find another one like it. Ceilings measure ten feet high in the shared space of the main building and approximately eight feet in the private south and north wings, providing a bright and airy feel. Upstairs, you will find five bedrooms, two elegantly appointed full bathrooms with custom ceramic tiles and marble, and an additional powder room. Downstairs, a large, separate apartment with four beds and yet another full family bathroom provides additional space and privacy for your guests or – if so desired - staff. A separate 3/4 bathroom with shower is accessible from the pool area outside. Locally sourced pavers frame the pool deck, visually embracing the traditional, local character of the grounds. The home further features tasteful marble floors throughout, a huge, shared living room, open concept kitchen with modern, top of the line Us- and European appliances, pantry and laundry room, as well as various storage and equipment rooms in the basement. The property comes fully furnished. Outside, a carport will accommodate several vehicles, and fast internet and international Tv programming is provided by satellite dish. A conventional telephone landline is also available, just in case. During its build, the entire structure was properly insulated and equipped with energy efficient, dual-pane windows all around, meeting or exceeding the most stringent building codes. Utilizing a sophisticated, impact resistant concrete and steel frame, earthquake safety was as much on the architect’s mind as was the home’s overall elegant appearance that seamlessly blends in with its rural setting. Central heating (oil) provides year round comfort with the flip of a switch, and water can be sourced directly from the municipal system or your personal reservoir (sterna), which holds over 100 000 liters. Further, there is access to a nearby well. Whether you favor your independence or simply enjoy “off the grid living”, you will never have to worry about your water supply. Environmentally friendly solar panels further enhance the organic and forward thinking stance of the home. In the winter months, make yourself comfortable in front of the cozy fireplace with a good book or a glass of wine. Being surrounded by hundreds of olive trees that make up your own private grove, you will certainly never run out of firewood. Those same trees yield between two to four tons of olives per harvest, which can be sold to the local mill or domestically. Whichever you choose, there will always be a solid, steady income. Most of the year, being in this part of the Mediterranean is all about outdoor living. And this is where this property truly shines: Prepare your al fresco dinner by the crystal clear, lavish pool (6 by 12 meters; dermatologically approved non-chlorine system), overlooking turquoise Aegean waters, and enjoy the company of friends over a cool drink on one of the upstairs wrap-around terraces and balconies. In the early evening, listen to the cicadas’ soothing chorus. This home encourages sharing and living Greek hospitality and the experience of pristine beauty you never thought possible. Other nearby sparetime activities are boating, horseback riding, diving, fishing, hiking or simply soaking up the quiet and the sun. The closest shopping is only ten minutes away: In the picturesque, quaint fishing village of Platanias you will find two small markets with fresh groceries and general supplies as well as a bakery and a butcher. From Platanias, a leisurely hike to adjacent beaches offers even more tranquility and different vistas to enjoy. Several tavernas nearby allow you to partake in as much or as little of the local village life as you desire. Do not miss the opportunity to indulge and sample some of the well known regional dishes and foods, though. Whether fresh caught fish or octopus or one of the traditional appetizers or meat offerings, enjoy the culinary experience. You won’t go home hungry. If you have ever visited Greece before, chances are that locals may have told you about a magical region called Pelion. Unmolested and untouched from mass tourism, the hospitality, modesty and authenticity is what makes this area and its people so unique. There is no pretense here. Don’T be surprised if a villager spontaneously invites you to a wedding or other family event on the same evening. This is how things are around here. Your new dream home is located approximately 4 hours by car south of Thessaloniki and approximately 5 hours north of Athens. During the summer months, commercial flights are available from selected European hubs to Volos (1.5 hours away) or Skiathos Island, from where you can take a 15 minute ride with a water taxi to Platanias.
