Large sunny rooms for rent in the countryside near the traditional Greek village of Kynopiastes, 10 minutes from the airport, the old Fort and Corfu town. This storybook home is set in the hills, among ancient olive trees and offers two bedrooms and a shared bathroom in a private hallway. Property also includes a small art studio, vegetable garden, citrus trees and a large swimming pool deck overlooking the verdant landscape and hill villages nearby. Each bedroom has a desk and under floor heat for the chilly months. The living room has open beam 20’ ceilings framed by gorgeous arches built from old Corfu town brick, a large wood Burning fireplace, and 5 french doors opening out onto a veranda and large sun soaked grounds. Additional features include a huge open dining room, large fireplace, remodeled kitchen with all new appliances. Up from the dining room there are three brick stairs, on one side you will find the two large private bedrooms with tons of light and a shared bathroom (2 people max) with bathtub and step in shower. The first bedroom is at the end of the hallway and has three windows, there is a bathroom, toilet in the middle hallway and then at the other end is the second bedroom. I am renting only these two rooms in my house,
On the other adjacent side of the hallway is my private bedroom/bathroom suite.
The grounds include a landscaped front yard with a huge patio and brick bbq, ancient olive trees, a walled back yard with citrus trees a large stairway up to a pool deck and landscaped hillside perfect for entertaining. The drive way is large enough for three small cars and the property is private and gated. You feel like you are up in the hills, it is very quiet, surrounded by peaceful nature, and beautiful trees, yet you are moments away from a bustling shopping road, full of cafes, butchers and supermarkets and a direct bus into Corfu town center. The nearest little local beach is 10 minutes away by car and a short 20-40 minute drive to long sandy beaches or rocky coves with aquamarine water, which is lovely to swim in throughout the winter. Kynopiastes village is just five minutes walk from the house, where there is a local bar on the square and a coffee shop and small supermarket open year round.
Winter on Corfu, is both rainy and beautifully sunny. The temperature is moderate, nights are cold but I have a lovely fire and heating.
I am an artist and designer and enjoy gardening and nature. The house comes with three sweet dogs, a Greek hare hound, a miniature Dachshund and a Poodle. We are looking to share our space with respectful guests who love dogs, enjoy quiet and conversation, cleanliness and most of all appreciate peace and nature. I am happy to share family style meals or more independent style. If you are interested in a tranquil experience yet close to town and airport, it will be perfect.
Other dates available for long term, short term and monthly rental throughout the year. High season and low season rates apply. *October has availability.
