Set on an elevated hillside overlooking the western coastline of Mykonos, Kyra comprises two independent residences positioned to capture uninterrupted views across the Aegean towards Syros and Tinos. Occupying a 1,024 sqm (11,022 sq.ft.) plot, the estate extends across 506 sqm (5,447 sq.ft.) of accommodation and has been designed to balance privacy, flexibility and a strong connection to its surroundings.
Arranged as two separate villas, the property can function either as a unified estate or as two distinct residences. The layout lends itself naturally to extended family use, guest accommodation or seasonal living, allowing each house to maintain its own sense of independence while remaining part of a cohesive whole.
The architecture draws from the traditional forms of the Cyclades, combining stone-built volumes, shaded transitional spaces and clean white surfaces. Positioned to follow the natural contours of the hillside, the residences are oriented towards the sea, ensuring that the landscape remains a constant presence throughout the property. Large openings frame the horizon and allow natural light to move through the interiors across the day, while the elevated setting benefits from cooling sea breezes during the warmer months.
The principal living spaces are designed around a continuous relationship between interior and exterior environments. Sitting, dining and kitchen areas connect directly to the terraces, creating a fluid layout that responds naturally to the island climate. The interiors maintain a restrained palette of stone, timber and whitewashed surfaces, creating spaces that feel relaxed, comfortable and closely connected to the surrounding landscape.
Across the two residences, the property accommodates seven en suite bedrooms. The rooms continue the same architectural language found throughout the estate, favouring simplicity, natural materials and carefully framed views rather than decorative excess. Deep-set openings soften the Mediterranean light, while the arrangement of the accommodation ensures privacy and separation between the various bedroom suites.
Outdoor living forms an integral part of the property's design. Broad terraces extend around the residences, creating a sequence of spaces that respond to different times of day and changing views. The western orientation provides long sightlines across the sea and allows the landscape and horizon to become the defining features of the experience. Multiple outdoor areas create opportunities for both privacy and connection, while the arrangement of the two villas ensures that each residence retains its own outdoor setting.
The elevated position combines openness with shelter, benefiting from expansive sea views while remaining slightly removed from stronger seasonal winds. As the day progresses, the changing light moves across the stone façades and terraces, gradually softening the character of the architecture as evening approaches.
Located within easy reach of the coast while removed from the busier areas of the island, Kyra enjoys a setting defined by sea, sky and the natural contours of the hillside. The surrounding landscape remains largely undeveloped, preserving a sense of openness and allowing the architecture to sit comfortably within its environment. From its elevated position, the view extends across the water towards the neighbouring Cycladic islands, with the changing colours of the Aegean becoming an ever-present part of daily life.
