Sea-view villa with a heated pool in Drios, Paros

This authentic Parian home is set on a 975 sq.m plot in Drios, Paros. The 420 sq.m villa offers seven bedrooms (sleeping 16) and a large, private heated swimming pool with panoramic sea views, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The beach is just 700m away and the property includes an enclosed garage as well as a spacious storage room.

Carved from the island itself in 2003, this Cycladic masterpiece rises like a sculpture from the hillside. Its 80cm thick stone walls, silent, comforting and sun-warmed, hold the stillness of centuries, wrapping every room in a calm that no modern construction can replicate. The moment you step inside, you feel a deep sense of security. The thick walls shut out the heat, leaving a quiet, grounded calm.

Whitewashed forms catch the Aegean light and turn it gold at dawn, blinding at noon, rose at dusk. Soft, hand-rounded edges flow into one another like brushstrokes, while deep-set windows frame the sea as though each view were hung in a gallery.

The top level is devoted entirely to the master suite, with a very spacious ensuite bathroom, a walk-in wardrobe and an incredible private roof terrace taking in the full panorama.

The entrance level comprises three bedrooms, two bathrooms a living room with fireplace, a guest WC and the kitchen, which opens onto an external breakfast area with a lovely authentic outdoor oven, ideal for pizza, bread or slow-cooked traditional dishes.

The lower, garden level comprises three further independent bedroom suites, each with its own bathroom, ideal for guests, extended family or a private retreat.

Come and immerse yourself in authentic Cycladic living, far from the ordinary and close to the sea.
