This Greek villa on the island of Andros is a 150-year-old manor house surrounded by six acres of orchard including citrus trees. We would love to start each morning here with some fresh fruit from the gardens, relaxing outside at the seating area near the restored old well, under the dappled shade of a tree. Then, lounge beside the pool, enjoying the views of the orchard before slipping into the cooling waters of the private swimming pool.
The area surrounding this home is also is filled with hundred-year-old, tall Cyprus trees, and lemon and orange trees. Plus, there is a stream running just outside the property which flows to the sea at Paraporti beach – making it a very beautiful and peaceful eight-minute walk to reach the sands and oceans. There’s even a taverna by the beach if you get hungry.
The town of Andros is just a fifteen-minute walk away – or only ten minutes if you choose to take advantage of the free bikes provided at this home. Here, you can explore the town, admire the Tourlitis Lighthouse, visit the museum of contemporary art, and dine in one of the many restaurants and tavernas. Or, return to the villa at dinner time and enjoy local wine and delicious food – using produce and herbs from the garden –cooked on the barbecue, dining alfresco as the sun slowly disappears behind the trees.
