Villa in Vouliagmeni
The Margi Villa
A secluded seafront location, complete with stimulating architecture and luxury fittings, this modern home occupies a desirable spot on the Athens riviera. Clean, minimal design incorporates laid-back sun balconies, a grand social room, and a shaded pool. The home’s tall trees, neat lawns, and pebble beach are close to tasty cafes, scenic walking trails, and the cosmopolitan city itself.
Warm Grecian afternoons are a genuine pleasure on the sunny exterior seating at the Margi Villa, with plush couches and carved wooden tables contrasting with the vivid blue sea beyond. A mature, bushy olive tree overhangs the pool, making for reflective mid-morning swims, while the insides’s orderly, organic layout facilitates memorable meals. Guests can stroll or play football on the private lawn area, with paddling and sunbathing facilitated via home’s direct-access shoreline. Tasteful, minimal decor adds a touch of class to the spacious ensuite bedrooms, with the hot tub and nearby yoga sessions offering a wide range of relaxation options.
Guests will find a grand selection of activities in both the immediate locality and easily-accessible Athens from this villa. An impressive network of paths and trails connects guests with seaside churches, sandy beaches, and traditional tavernas, with zesty seafood dining in abundance. The natural springwaters of the Vouliagmeni Lake baths are within walking distance, with Athens’s Acropolis, Ancient Aghora, and many fascinating museums within a short drive or trip via ample public transport. The shining Aegean hosts yacht outings and cruises out to history-steeped Hydra island.

Villa in Neos Voutzas
Villa Marathon
Greet the sunrise over the Aegean Sea from this contemporary villa in Marathon. Situated on a 1,000-square-meter estate near the easternmost edge of the Attic Peninsula, the home is just minutes from several beaches and about 40 kilometers from Athens. Expansive living spaces form an ideal haven for families and large groups of friends, enhanced by an extraordinary collection of original artwork.
The villa’s luminous white minimalism alludes to ancient Aegean architecture, accentuating the rich blues of the sky and sea. Dip into the swimming pool and bathe in the sunlight. Grill up fresh seafood and vegetables for a meze platter, and uncork a bottle of local wine in the lounge. Gather for casual afternoon meals at the poolside tables, or a family feast under the veranda. At night, turn on the outdoor lighting to continue the revelry under the stars.
Inside, a capacious living room features high ceilings and tufted leather sofas facing a fireplace. The formal dining table is perched on a platform overlooking the living room, flowing gracefully into the chef-grade kitchen. Pluck a volume from the library for a meditative afternoon; retreat into the office suite for an important project; or summon the spirits of the ancient astronomers with the telescope at night.
Four bedroom suites with ensuite bathrooms can accommodate families and groups of friends up to 8 in size. The deluxe master suite includes a private lounge with fireplace, while the 3 guestrooms enjoy access to balconies with inspiring views.
This tranquil location offers easy access to the peninsula’s rustic beauty, seaside delights, and historical treasures. Beach-lovers will want to visit Schinias, Sessi, and Varnavas, while history buffs will appreciate the Marathon Tomb and the Maraton Archeological Museums. Take the family to the Attica Zoological Park, or drive into Athens for a trip to the Acropolis and dinner in the charming Plaka neighborhood.

Villa in Palea Fokea
Villa Selenia
Swim in the Aegean Sea at Katafygi Beach and return on foot to alfresco feasts at this stunning villa in Sounio along the Athens Riviera. Newly built, the architectural masterwork consists of 2 independent houses, each with a swimming pool, gourmet kitchen, living/dining area, and private entrance. Together they form the perfect seaside haven for a reunion with family or friends, just minutes from Cape Sounio and about 45 kilometers from central Athens.
The tiered pool terraces gaze out on sweeping views of the southern Attic coastline and the Saronic Gulf. A shared entertainment area is perched beneath a pergola on the upper terrace, with a barbecue, dining table, and bar. The edge of Katafygi Beach is just steps from the property.
Stylish yet welcoming interiors offer ample space for quiet afternoon downtime or festive evenings. Each villa includes a fully equipped kitchen, private dining room, and living area. Prepare a platter of meze to enjoy in the lounge before a home-cooked feast of local seafood and wine. Then pour glasses of ouzo from the wet bar to sip by the fire.
Villa Selenia Platinum is the larger house, with 5 deluxe queen bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, accommodating 10 guests. Villa Selenia Gold has 2 queen bedrooms, accommodating up to 4 guests. The spacious master and primary guest suites include elevated, in-room bathtubs with spa jets.
From its private perch in the Aeolos housing estate, Villa Selenia offers a wonderful experience of the Palaia Fokaia region, close to rustic villages, ancient archeological sites, and stunning beaches. Behold the famous sunsets from the Temple of Poseidon on Cape Sounio, about 8 kilometers away. Visit the charming, off-the-tourist radar Port of Lavrio, savoring the delicacies of its tavernas and catching a ferry to explore the Cyclades Islands. The myriad treasures of Athens are about 40 minutes away.
