Sited regally above the traditional working town of Vrisses, this glamorous villa looks out over the town and across the valley towards the White Mountains.  The owners scoured the area for more than 2 years to find their ideal property, but now are reluctantly moving, leaving behind a stunning traditional 4 bedroom detached family home.

The house was built approximately 8 years ago. Unusually, a triple storey house, with terraced garden of about 1,700sqm, the house comprises:

Entry Level: Through an elegant front door into a hallway. From here firstly to the right is the large ground floor master bedroom. Fitted with floor-to-ceiling wardrobes it has plentiful storage. Patio doors lead to the rear terrace & windows to the side gardens. To the left of the entrance hall is a marble tiled shower room. The hallway opens up into the spacious dining room with its attractive double aspect corner windows. The fully fitted kitchen, complete with storage pantry, links the inside & outside dining areas, the latter being a large, covered stone-paved terrace to the rear of the property. A storage area, which is separated from the dining room by a short flight of stairs, completes this floor.

Lower Level: Stairs lead down to the superb living room which has French windows opening onto the front veranda which extends along the full width of the house and links to the terraces surrounding the plunge pool. The room is spacious, light & airy. In addition to the central heating the room also has an attractive, efficient wood-burning stove.

Upper Level: Returning to the hallway, a flight of stairs takes you up to bedroom 2. This room, which is currently in use as an office, has access to the softly curving front terrace which gives the house an impression of Art Décor styling. The room is flanked to the right by a cloakroom/WC and an extremely useful airing cupboard to the left.

At the rear of the house are two further bedrooms. Both generously proportioned, bedroom 3 is set out with twin beds. Bedroom 4 is a large double and has a small private terrace as well as access to the larger rear terrace which is also shared with bedroom 3. The marble tiled bathroom with large corner bath completes the accommodation.

Externally the property is magnificent. A sweeping driveway leads you to the house through 3 terraces of mature shrubs and trees including giant palms, almonds, oranges, tangerines, lemons and olive trees. There are also grape vines, flowering and ornamental shrubs as well as the more traditional bougainvillea, roses and geraniums.

At the top of the driveway is a shaded parking area which leads on to the front terraces. Here is one of the most deceptive plunge pools of our experience. Looking similar to a kiddie pool this is around 2 meters deep and has a current resistor mechanism which makes it a stunning exercise point – overlooking the garden and across the valley.

The house was originally constructed for a German owner and its strong lines and solid construction are typical pointers to its origin. Accordingly, the features and benefits of the property are also of high quality with good insulation, full central heating, irrigation system throughout the garden, security lights and an alarm system all in place. The uppermost roof terrace is dedicated to services with the solar panel and satellite dish.

The basement is dedicated to storage and accommodates the central heating boiler and fuel tank, fresh water storage tank with ample room for winter storage of garden tools and furniture and general supplies.

Other benefits include:

·        Superb marble flooring throughout the house

·        Generous room sizes with plentiful storage

·        Stunning stone garden walls

·        Safety railings on terraces

·        Sliding wrought iron electric gate at drive entrance

·        Pedestrian gate

·        Lower off-road parking for 2+ cars

The house is a high quality property, set in terraces of                                                                    mature planting and within minutes of the active town of Vrisses with its banks, shops, post office and services. It is an absolute delight that must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
