On the edge of the small rural community of Sfinari, Pericles House stands on a large plot of land overlooking the sea, where the little beach road from the village meets the coast and only 600 metres from the shingle beach.
Pericles House was originally the home of a humble charcoal maker; it has now been miraculously transformed into a remarkably stylish villa.
Spacious terraces of crazy paving surround the house on three sides with a purpose built barbecue to the rear beyond which is a large area of lawn. To the side of the house is the 9m x 5m pool complete with a small children's pool. The front terrace overlooks the sea and is the place to sit and enjoy the sunsets with the ever-present sound of the sea.
On the ground floor of the house is a spacious open plan living area. At one end is a well equipped kitchen and dining area with full cooker, microwave, dishwasher and fridge freezer. Nearby is a large solid dining table and chairs. At the front there is a sitting area next to a huge fireplace with views out to sea. There is a further attractive lounge area with 2 comfortable sofas, plus TV, DVD and Hi Fi system. From here a staircase climbs to the first floor level and another small sitting area, where patio doors open onto the generous terraces which have comfortable bamboo patio furniture to relax and enjoy the superb sea and mountain views.
Also at this level is the spacious master bedroom with queen size double bed and semi circular hydro massage bath. There is also a smart en-suite shower room, CD Player and mini-bar with small fridge. Two sets of French windows lead to sea or mountain facing terraces where you can sit and watch the sun rise over the mountains or set into the sea.
Across the hallway on the first floor is a twin bedroom with a small en-suite shower room and patio doors to the front terrace. The third bedroom is double bedded and situated on the ground floor at the far end of the living area with windows overlooking the pool and the rear garden. There is an adjoining full bathroom which has a washing machine.
NB. The small road to the beach tavernas passes to the side of the property, so cars will pass by from time to time especially at weekends.
