The open plan, single storey design with polished concrete flooring makes for a cool, airy feel throughout, enhanced by floor-to-ceiling windows and patio doors allowing plenty of light to flow through the space. Décor and furnishings are ultra-contemporary yet comfortable, with a semi-industrial twist that’s very much in vogue.

A huge, plump sofa stretches across the living area, inviting you to put your feet up and watch a movie or catch up on some holiday reading. A striking dining suite seating ten people nestles beside the huge bifold doors that open out onto the poolside terrace, ideal for more formal meals or celebrations.

The very modern, all-white kitchen is a cook’s dream, with sleek, handless cabinetry providing acres of storage space and a fantastic island unit housing the sink and hob that doubles as a breakfast bar. It’s a very sociable design, allowing you and your fellow chefs, or even those who prefer a hands-off role, to spend good times together over the food preparation. A further dining table is also positioned by the window, offering alternative seating that could come in handy if you’re serving meals for little ones.

The handsome bedrooms are tastefully decorated with well-built, stylish furniture and clever little touches that demonstrate the designer’s great attention to detail. The two main bedrooms each have an en suite wet room with a stylish wash basin, while the other two bedrooms share a luxurious bathroom with a free-standing bathtub.

Outside, a magnificent covered terrace runs across the back of the house, providing welcome shade and a choice of seating areas overlooking the gardens. The dove grey concrete flooring extends to the outside terraces, creating an attractive contrast to the lush green lawns and bright turquoise pool. Beyond is a collection of characterful old olive trees, beautifully framing the lovely view and providing a charming backdrop for alfresco dining on the terrace where the all-essential barbecue resides.

Besides the private pool to provide endless hours of fun, there’s also a children’s play area and a basketball net to keep the younger members of the family happy.

A handful of tavernas and a mini market are within strolling distance in the village, however when you’re ready to explore further afield you’ll find a wonderful selection of restaurants, shops, cafés and bars just fifteen minutes’ drive away in Argostoli. Take a wander through the bustling markets and along the palm-tree lined harbour, relaxing over a coffee, Kefalonia-style, as colourful fishing boats and gleaming yachts sail in and out of the marina. The gorgeous golden sands of Ammes Beach are also just a few minutes’ drive from the villa, with iconic cobalt blue waters that are simply irresistible.
