Sarakinatika House is a characterful three bedroom property, set in an elevated position, with the most incredible sea views overlooking the north east coastline of Corfu, across to Albania.The house, which is circa 200 years old has recently been thoughtfully and sensitively renovated, with a new kitchen, bathrooms, stairs, wiring & plumbing.Externally the owners have massively enhanced the outside living areas and pool terrace.The property is very comfortable and homely, whilst retaining a simple and traditional charm.
From the external covered parking, the front door leads directly into the kitchen, which flows straight into the dining area and sitting room.The kitchen is new and well equipped, with a small island.The sitting room and dining area have natural timber ceilings and traditional Corfiot windows framing the sea views.From the sitting room & dining area, stairs lead to the first floor.
On the first floor, there are two double bedrooms, a single bedroom / study and two bathrooms.The master bedroom has its own private terrace.All bedrooms have views looking across the channel of Corfu, right down to the south of the island and on a clear day Paxos can be seen in the distance.All bedrooms are equipped with modern lighting, mosquito window nets, fans, storage and hanging space.The bathrooms both have showers.On this floor there is also a garden room, which can double up as an extra bedroom.
Internally the property has an ease of movement and feels both spacious and intimate.
Set back into the hill, with its own olive grove behind, the gardens are spread out over three terraced levels, with stone paving, stone walls, and an abundance of planting & flowers, creating differing areas and privacy.
The gardens were redesigned and planted in 2020, creating plenty of colour and textural interest in the flower beds,with many large terracotta pots.
On one side of the house, the land is terraced with fruit & nut trees, such as pomegranate, apricot, almond and figs.
Outside the current owners have created both private and sociable spaces, some shaded and some in the sun, with hammocks, sunbeds, sofas, hanging chairs, soft & hard chairs, coffee tables & a dining area.
This area benefits from a well-equipped outdoor kitchen, with fridge, dishwasher and ceramic electric hob.
