About this property
Perched above its own picture perfect sandy beach on the gentle slopes of Andros, Villa Korthi is a rare combination of timeless Cycladic charm and relaxed seaside luxury. Designed with a thoughtful nod to local architecture, from its whitewashed walls to warm wooden detail and locally sourced stone, this substantial six bedroom home feels both elegant and effortlessly welcoming. Floor to ceiling windows and a sequence of verandas ensure that every corner of the villa is imbued with light and expansive views over the Aegean Sea, a vista that seems to stretch on forever.
Step inside and you’ll immediately sense the easy flow of indoor and outdoor living. On the ground floor, a generous living area invites long family gatherings, cozy evenings by the fireplace and relaxed conversations over breakfast. A large dining table anchors the space, making it ideal for shared meals, while the retro styled but well equipped kitchen sits comfortably within sight of sea views. A double bedroom with a private bathroom on this level makes ground floor living easy for guests who prefer single story access.
Bifold doors open to a shaded terrace and outdoor patio where contemporary loungers and cushioned seating beckon you to linger over sunset drinks and al fresco dinners long after the sun dips into the water. There’s a quiet, restful rhythm here, sea breeze, salt air and birdsong combining with comfortable furnishings to create a living experience that feels as natural as the surroundings.
Upstairs, the villa reveals further spaces tailored for both privacy and togetherness. A second living room with kitchenette and separate entrance creates a suite like retreat, flanked by three further bedrooms including a master with en suite. A large staircase leads to an airy attic level with yet more sleeping areas, perfect for teens or guests who crave their own nook with sea breezes and wide vistas.
Outside, extensive terraces, hidden garden nooks and sprawling verandas make every hour feel luminous and connected to the maritime landscape. A private pathway winds down to a sandy cove where light footed swims, quiet morning coffee or fireside picnics await. Villa Korthi isn’t just a home, it’s an invitation to savour the very best of island living in one of Greece’s most captivating yet undiscovered destinations.
Villa Korthi sits in an enviable seaside position on the serene northern coast of Andros, a distinguished gem among the Cycladic islands that retains a quiet sophistication far from the crowds. Surrounded by hills clothed in aromatic herbs and ancient olive groves, the villa occupies a sweeping location where the air holds salt and wild sage, and each glance seems to meet the sea beyond.
Just a few metres down a private, shaded path lies one of Andros’s most idyllic sandy beaches, a tranquil cove edged by rock and sea that feels wonderfully private yet utterly accessible. This beach invites early morning swims, sheltered sunbathing and late afternoon paddles in waters that shimmer from turquoise to deep blue as the sun arches overhead. A nearby beach bar and taverna provide easy stops for cooling refreshment or a casually elegant lunch under canvas umbrellas.
The villa is set near the traditional village of Stenies, with its quiet lanes and mellow pace of life, but is also a short drive from Hora, the island’s historic capital. Just 4 km away, Hora unfurls in an enchanting maze of stone paved streets, old churches, stylish galleries and inviting cafés. Here you can explore boutique shops, sip rich Greek coffee beneath shaded terraces, or dine on Cretan inspired cuisine as evening lights begin to twinkle along the waterfront.
Andros is a paradise for lovers of nature and culture alike. Its extensive network of marked walking trails, ancient donkey paths and hillside tracks, crisscross the island, leading hikers through olive groves, up to panoramic viewpoints, and down to hidden coves. The island’s museums, including one of Greece’s most celebrated modern art collections, offer a wonderfully elegant counterpoint to outdoor adventure.
For families, couples and friends travelling together, Villa Korthi’s location strikes an especially appealing balance between peaceful retreat and easy access to island life. A hire car is recommended to savour Andros at your own pace; there is free parking on site. The main port of Gavrio lies around 40 km away and connects the island with Piraeus and nearby Cyclades, while closer distances mean exploring traditional villages, local markets or scenic cafés is always on the cards.
Whether your idea of a perfect day is a contemplative sunrise dip, meandering village shops or an evening feast of grilled seafood and ouzo by the sea, Villa Korthi sits at the heart of it all.
