Stonemade: Epirus

Contemporary and super stylish, this sleek new home is part of a small development built into the hillside, overlooking the beautiful bay of Syvota. With some of the most romantic Ionian sunset views you're likely to find, it's been designed for up to four. Here there's nothing to distract from the main event – the epic sea view – with a luxurious private infinity pool disappearing over the edge and frameless glass balustrades.

Inside it's cool, modern, and minimal. White and grey hues, along with smooth concrete, natural stone, and lots of glass keep it fresh and bright, and it's a world away from the stresses of day-to-day life. Whip up a breakfast of fresh fruit and coffee, read all day on the sunny terrace, or drive to one of the area's fabulous beaches, later heading into town for a special meal together. Just be sure to get home in time to watch the sun go down – you won't want to miss it.
