Sophia Upper

Introduction

With a beachfront setting that would be hard to beat, this family villa in Corfu has a garden gate directly on to Kerasia’s pebble shore, and is within walking distance of St Stephano harbour too.

Sophia Upper

This is a villa which offers a taste of timeless Corfu, where gorgeous seafront gardens are screened for privacy with mature trees, sprinkled with flowers and blossoming shrubs, and criss-crossed with paved pathways, including a vine-draped pergola arch leading straight to the beach. The two-storey house has colour-washed walls, shuttered windows and two apartments, one on each floor. Within the walled grounds are quiet corners, shady lawns, a built-in barbecue, and a ten metre swimming pool in a sun-soaked terrace, all enjoyed by guests in both the Upper and Lower apartments.So when Sophia is booked as a whole, the house is ideal for two families, offering a level of privacy for each. Separately, each apartment is self-contained, with individual access and doors to outdoor space. The Upper apartment has balconies woven with burgeoning bougainvillea, a double and twin bedroom, each with air conditioning, and an open-plan living/dining room with white walls, pale tiled floors and doors to the balcony.The Upper and Lower apartments can be booked separately or together.
