Everyday Beauty: Central Macedonia

There are few words sweeter to the ear than 'private infinity pool', so you'll be pleased to hear that this villa close to the Halkidikan coastline has one with a marvellous view of the dazzling blue Aegean Sea beyond.

Rather impressively, this is far from the only standout feature at this address. If the coastal panorama proves tempting, there's direct access to a small rocky beach so you can roll out of bed and be swimming in mere moments. If you just prefer to admire it from afar, you can do so from the seating on the pergola or on the master bedroom's masterful balcony.

There's plenty to like about the interior, too. The open kitchen-living-dining area is a triumph of muted colours and sleek surfaces, while the bedrooms showcase modern minimalist style at its best.

When you've exhausted the private pool and private beach, why not embark upon a hike in Dragoudeliou nature reserve to the south of the peninsula?
