Dreams do come true and this home is the proof. Gazing across the Ionian Sea, this dramatic villa is ready to welcome you into an earthly paradise. Stepping into the grounds, your eyes will be drawn to the infinite horizon of sky and vast sparkling sea. As you float into the living space, outside and inside blend into one harmonious space thanks to the large floor-to-ceiling sliding doors. Fresh sea air dances through the space, while the natural light and soothing palette create a sanctuary of calm. Whether you're lounging on the plush sofas, taking a seat at the grand piano, or cooking in the kitchen you are immersed in the beauty of the island. Upstairs, the magic continues in the elegant bedrooms that have been minimally furnished to allow the views to shine. The bathrooms are a spa-like experience with freestanding bathtubs, large showers and views across the sea that will leave you feeling rejuvenated. As the sun rises, you’ll want to greet the new day from the garden, take a dip in the infinity pool or keep up your fitness regime in the gym. It will be hard to leave this incredible home, but if you want a truly memorable experience you have access to your own private yacht and a skipper who can show you the hidden coves of Corfu. Whether you’ve been out at sea or exploring the coastal villages, you’ll love returning home to relax in the traditional Hammam as the sun set across this magical island.

This home is managed by Oliver

Nearly twenty years ago, Oliver and his friend began curating the world's most unique and rustic getaways. Driven by their own unforgettable experience at a chateau, they have grown remarkably since then. Much like Plum, they believe in hand-picked luxury that doesn't break the bank.
