Full Description


This stunning historic Corfiot Estate is now available for sale in the charming village of Vouniatades, situated in the south of Corfu.

Comprising of three separate buildings, this property is just a short drive away from the beach and local amenities.

This Estate has a rich history, dating back to the Venetian era when the island was ruled by influential nobles. The property was the mansion of the local baronet and remained in the extended family until the early 1980s. Set in a 3,000 square meter landscaped garden featuring an array of flowers, plants, and trees, this Estate is situated in an agricultural village approximately 15 km south of Corfu town.

Although in need of upkeep, this property retains all of its traditional structural characteristics. The roofs of all three buildings have been rebuilt and reinforced, and the ceramic Byzantine-style tiles have been replenished.

The main house spans over an area of 160 square meters and features five rooms, all overlooking the stunning garden and surrounding green hills. Additionally, there is a big kitchen, three bathrooms, and three fireplaces.

The second house is 190 square meters and is spread over two floors. The ground floor features a stone and wood mule-driven olive press that has remained intact, a bedroom with a fireplace, a kitchen, a bathroom, and a WC.

The first floor comprises of an 80 square meter open plan room with ten windows and was once used as the town hall of the region.

The third house is 77 square meters and features electrical wiring and plumbing, with doors and windows ready but not fully mounted, and bathroom fittings purchased but not installed.

It requires some work to become fully functional but consists of two spacious, high-ceilinged independent rooms or studios, each with a mezzanine, kitchenette space, a bathroom, and a fireplace.

The nearby main village offers two supermarkets, a post-office, two bakeries, restaurants, and cafes. Additionally, a picturesque organized beach is located approximately 3 km from the property.

In the 1990s and 2000s, the current owners used the property to organize international artistic, literary, and cultural events.

Due to its size and historical value, this Estate could be converted into a unique boutique Bed & Breakfast in the picturesque Corfiot village, offering an unforgettable experience to its guests.
