Ariella is positioned on a hillside above Kerasia Beach on Corfu’s northeast coast, looking west across the Ionian Sea toward the mountains of the mainland. Built in local stone and arranged across multiple terraces, the villa combines traditional island materials with a lighter contemporary interior approach, maintaining a strong connection to the surrounding landscape and sea throughout the property.
The house extends across 274 sqm (2,949 sq.ft.) on a 2,428 sqm (26,135 sq.ft.) plot planted with olive trees and Mediterranean vegetation. From the arrival level, the sea remains constantly visible, framed by stone archways, shaded verandas and broad openings that allow natural light to move through the interiors throughout the day.
The principal living spaces are arranged in an open-plan configuration, with the kitchen, dining and sitting areas flowing directly onto the outdoor terraces. Pale timber ceilings, natural stone walls and soft neutral finishes create a restrained palette that reflects the colours of the coastline outside. Large sliding doors open fully toward the pool terrace, allowing the interior and exterior spaces to function as one during the warmer months. A bowl of lemons left on the kitchen island catches the afternoon light beside the open terrace doors.
Four bedrooms and five bathrooms are distributed across the villa, each positioned to maximise privacy and sea views. Several bedrooms open directly onto terraces overlooking the bay, while the upper-level suites benefit from particularly wide views across the coastline and water below. The interiors remain calm and understated, with simple materials and soft natural light shaping the atmosphere rather than decorative detail.
The outdoor areas form a central part of the property. An infinity-edge swimming pool runs along the front terrace, oriented directly toward the sea and surrounding hillsides. Covered dining areas, shaded seating spaces and stone-paved terraces create multiple areas for outdoor living at different times of day, while the elevated position allows uninterrupted views across the changing colours of the Ionian from morning through sunset.
Kerasia Beach lies a short distance below the villa, known for its quieter atmosphere, clear water and natural setting. Small waterfront tavernas and neighbouring coastal villages remain close by, while the property itself retains a distinct sense of privacy within the hillside landscape.
Ariella balances traditional Corfiot materials with open contemporary living in a setting defined by sea views, olive groves and the slower rhythm of the northeast coast. As evening settles across the bay, the stone terraces retain the warmth of the day while the lights along the coastline begin to appear across the water.
