Greek Island Paradise: Explore A Stunning $15.5 Million Waterfront Villa In Corfu

Here on the Mediterranean island of Corfu, time was that anyone with a passion for the lapping of waves was free to construct their private paradise on a beach—and as close to the waterline as they wished. Not so now. Ever since coastal erosion became a phrase and local legislation came into force in 2001, building a residence so proximate to the water has been forbidden. Now few and literally far between on this golden island are the homes that still occupy the very edge of the sea once sailed by Odysseus. One such rarity is now on the market: an expansive villa outside Benitses, an old fishing village just south of the main town of Kérkyra (aka Corfu Town). An estate of some 3,400 square meters (36,600 square feet) spreads from the property’s private dock along a 200-meter protective seawall frontage and up into a dark green bucolic glade of trees. The property’s seven-bedroom, eight-bathroom accommodation totals 520 square meters (5,600 square feet) divided between two separate two-story residences, maximizing options when hosting guests. Inside, a calm, modern feel connects the spacious minimalist interiors in a homogenous tonality of white and cream. Downstairs, in the fitness suite an F1 simulator cockpit, emblazoned with the badge of a heritage marque, says there’s a place for adrenaline too.
