[1550] Athani Haven
An idyllic setting above two of the island's most emblematic beaches, Egremni and Porto Katsiki, with unforgettable sunsets as well as bewildering views of the milky blue Ionian sea
Nestled in a rich green wooded area in south-western Lefkada this property occupies a commanding position that has no contenders. Its inspiring contemporary design blends in perfect harmony with the dramatic and pure surroundings thanks to the use of natural materials throughout, such as wood and stone.
The split-level residence spreads over 284m². The front entrance opens onto a gallery overlooking a spacious open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area just below. The double-height ceilings of the gallery create an airy feeling, while the perimetric oversized windows running along the geometric layout of the central communal space offer seemingly endless panoramas. A series of glass doors open out to a wonderful sea-view terrace running along the length of the villa's facade. A guest toilet completes the accommodation on this floor. The first of the five bedrooms is located at the end of the corridor that runs past the gallery; it features an en-suite shower room and sliding glass doors that open onto a sizeable terrace with a view and access to the multiple outdoor areas. The remaining four bedrooms are found on either side of the winged upper levels. The east-wing staircase leads to two double bedrooms, both of which have en-suite shower rooms, amazing sea views, and balconies overlooking the terraces, the pools, and the beautiful forested areas. The west-wing staircase leads to another two double bedrooms with en-suite shower rooms; one has a shaded terrace with a view while the other features a large corner window designed to maximize the sea views.
The outdoor area and grounds are just as impressive! At the epicenter, there are two swimming pools; a 16m long infinity pool for swimming enthusiasts and a curvacious beach-like pool with a shallow end ideal for younger swimmers. The multi-level terraces feature a fully equipped outdoor kitchen with a bbq and pizza oven, a couple of shaded dining areas, a sunbathing deck suspended over the hillside, a sunken living room with a fire pit, an in-ground Olympic-size trampoline, a tree house, a basketball/football court, table tennis, an outdoor gym, a yoga pavilion and a fairy-tale like path through the fragrant woods leading to the magnificent blue sea below.
An inspiring property with luxurious touches set in a splendid environment of natural beauty!
