Villa Moon, a luxurious 4-bedroom villa with private pool on Lefkas (Lefkada), Greece

Stunning Panoramic Sea View over the Ionian Sea

Villa “Moon”, built in 2005, is located in one of the most beautiful areas of southern Lefkada very close to two of the most famous beaches of Greece, Egremnoi and Porto Katsiki.

It is a 220 m2 stone villa with traditional architecture, and is situated in a privately owned verdant extent of eight acres and at a straight distance of seven hundred meters from the sea. The surrounding region is hilly and free of other villas. It is an ideal spot for relaxation and contact with nature. From the courtyard of the house one can enjoy the splendid colors of sunrise and sunset, the evening star-studded sky, as well as the reflection of the moon in the waters beneath the terrace.

The villa is built with natural materials and local stone, in the traditional manner. It has a tiled roof, a wooden traditional island ceiling, wooden exterior and internal frames and it is built on two levels completely adapted to the natural surroundings. An indoor wooden staircase connects the two levels, but both have independent access through the courtyard. All the rooms are surrounded by large stone verandas and all have a view to the sea and the islands of Ithaka and Kefalonia, as well as a number of smaller ones.

The villa includes four bedrooms, two large living rooms, two kitchens and two bathrooms. On the first level there is a living room with a fireplace, lounge and dining room, three bedrooms, cooking and dining spaces and a bathroom. On the second level there is a bedroom, a large studio room with range and dining area, a double bed and a bathroom. The first level has wooden floors and the remaining space has “cotto” tiled floors.

The bedrooms are fully equipped with bedside tables, wardrobes, light fixtures and double beds with mattresses made of natural metal-free materials, iron and ironing board. The country style furniture is made of oak and pinewood. The kitchen is completely equipped with range, refrigerator, microwave oven, coffee maker, dishwasher and laundry machine. In the living room there are a telephone, a television, DVD and CD players. By the villa there is a 4 x 10 m rectangular swimming pool, 0.80 to 1.6 m deep with steps, surrounded by a 100 m2 lounge area with deck chairs and umbrellas.

In the exterior space, the plants and trees of the region have been preserved. Sage and thyme grow among the olive trees and cypresses, all protected by stonewalls that enclose the terraces. There is also a garden with vines, fig trees and small fruit trees.

The excellent microclimatic conditions of the region, the summer breeze and the local winds, in combination with the orientation of the house and the arrangement of the exterior openings ensure natural cooling even during hot summer days and render air conditioning unnecessary.
