Facing south west, this panoramic villa is set over 5 levels and is currently divided into three independent units that can be joined together to become one main property if required. All the main rooms have a sea view.

Main apartment ( ca. 300 sqm), consists of entrance hall, a large, light and airy living room with an arched window with a magnificent sea view, a lower dining area with door to a protected dining terrace, a study, a WC and a kitchen.

Stairs from the living room lead up to the second level where there is a further entrance door from the lift level, a master suite with bedroom and door to a wonderful terrace, dressing room and bathroom. Stairs down from the dining area lead to six rooms and three bathrooms; some rooms used as bedrooms and others as studies/playrooms and a kitchen area. From this level, the bedrooms have access to a spectacular terrace (ca. 300 sqm) over-looking the sea with a covered pergola area. The main house has a large, covered parking area for several cars and there is a lift built in the style of an ancient tower leading directly down to the entrance of the villa. There are two adjacent apartments with independent driveway and entrances, on a lower ground floor, below the large terrace. These apartments of about 170 sqm, are arranged on two levels. Apt.1 (70 sqm) has 2 rooms and a bathroom; Apt.2 has 3 rooms, 2 bathrooms, kitchen and living room and each has lower rooms which can be further accommodation. There is a adjacent room with WC and shower which is used as a changing room and for storing beach equipment.

All systems require renovation (wiring, electricity and central heating) and the property requires modernisation.
