Set above the coastline near Myrtos Beach, Avalon is a contemporary villa that combines open sea views with a calm sense of privacy on the northern coast of Kefalonia. Built into the hillside using natural stone and restrained architectural lines, the property looks outward across the Ionian Sea while remaining closely connected to the rugged landscape that defines this part of the island.
The approach arrives through quiet residential surroundings before opening onto expansive coastal views that stretch across the water and surrounding headlands. Stone walls, timber pergolas, and pale concrete surfaces soften the contemporary architecture, creating a residence that feels grounded within its setting rather than imposed upon it. Throughout the day, the changing colour of the sea becomes part of the atmosphere of the house itself.
The approximately 170 sqm interior is arranged across multiple levels connected by an internal elevator, allowing comfortable circulation throughout the property while supporting accessibility and ease of use. Large sliding glass doors and wide openings draw natural light into the interiors and maintain a continuous visual connection with the terraces and sea beyond.
At the centre of the home, the open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area faces directly toward the coastline. Soft neutral finishes, polished concrete floors, and natural textures create a restrained interior palette that reflects the surrounding landscape. The living spaces remain intentionally uncluttered, allowing the sea views and shifting daylight to define the character of each room.
Three bedrooms are positioned to maximise privacy and outlook, including a ground-floor principal suite with direct access to the terrace and pool area. The bedrooms combine simplicity with warmth through the use of natural materials, muted tones, and carefully framed openings toward the sea. Bathrooms continue the same understated aesthetic, incorporating textured plaster finishes, stone surfaces, and soft natural light.
Outdoor living unfolds across a series of terraces designed for both quiet retreat and everyday use. A linear swimming pool runs alongside the main façade, visually extending toward the horizon, while shaded dining areas and pergolas create sheltered outdoor spaces throughout the day. An outdoor shower, built-in BBQ area, and multiple seating terraces allow the property to transition naturally between indoor and outdoor living during the warmer months.
The elevated position captures open views toward the Ionian Sea and surrounding coastline, while the orientation allows soft evening light to move gradually across the terraces at sunset. From the upper terraces, the sea remains visible from nearly every vantage point, framed by stone balustrades and native planting.
Located close to Myrtos Beach, Avalon combines immediate access to one of Kefalonia’s most recognisable coastlines with the privacy of an independent hillside setting. Nearby villages, tavernas, and harbour towns remain within easy reach, while the villa itself retains a distinctly quiet atmosphere shaped by sea, light, and elevation.
As dusk settles across the water, the terraces and pool reflect the final colours of the sky, while the surrounding stone walls retain the warmth of the day.
