A magical retreat with fantastic design, opulent amenities, and direct beach access. The villa Gaia I is part of a daring waterfront estate comprising of two independent dwellings, located on Corfu's pristine north-east shore, 5 minutes by car from the picturesque village of Kassiopi.
The property blends the comforts of a caring home with the facilities of a five-star hotel. The interior and exterior of the four-bedroom home have been carefully designed to provide the ideal environment for lounging, restaurants, and entertaining. Taking advantage of the house's proximity to the water, the architect designed welcoming stone-paved terraces with sweeping views of the Ionian Sea and the lush Corfiot landscape. The main terrace's focal point is the stunning infinity-edge pool, which is flanked by a shaded lounging area with sunset views. The property's backside features a lovely open-sky patio that has been enclosed with walls to protect it from the elements.
The interior is a contemporary take on a traditional holiday home, nodding to country chic while portraying a modern lifestyle. Tall wood-beamed ceilings, stone-paved floors, and plenty of windows guarantee that views and sunshine are available throughout the building. The furniture is low and heavy, with a variety of finishes - textured brick walls, designer bits, and island-chic wicker details - that keep the space feeling intimate. The mood is romantic in the bedrooms, and the décor is dominated by the views that are invited in through the tall windows. The bedrooms on the pool level have direct access to the pool area, while the main level bedroom has access to a private balcony.
