Portico Verde private Villa with pool | Corfu

This summer escape near the beach and the town of Lefkimi, was designed by the architect owner, who wished to recreate his best Corfu memories from childhood.
When we designed Portico Verde Villa near Lefkimi, (our favorite part of Corfu island), we had in mind our childhood’s summers in the village. We wanted that innocence and harmony, back. And we made it!
Now, we are sharing this beautiful 2-floor villa that accommodates 8-10 guests in 3 large bedrooms and all its facilities with you - and we are really excited about it! The garden with the orange trees, the big pool and the BBQ with the large dining table, offer the ideal outdoor living!

As you walk in from the main entrance you see the living room with a fireplace and the kitchen in a separate room behind the staircase. All is bright and open, chic and classy. As you turn to the corridor behind the white staircase, you find the two ground floor bedrooms. The blue one with its ensuit bathroom and shower and the red one which is 40 sq.m and has an extra cobblestone room with one more sofa bed, that makes it ideal for a couple with a child. Right next to it, the big bathroom with a buthtub serves the red bedroom.
On the upperfloor you will find the master bedroom which is a 60 sq.m open space! Like an airy white loft with private veranda overlooking the whole estate and the pool, the master bedroom has a king size bed, a design bathtub in the room, a fireplace, two extra single beds and a baby cot that can sleep the children, a seperate bathroom with shower and beautiful decoration... All bathrooms are made of marble. No tiles have been used anywhere.
Now, Outside the kitchen and the living room, there is a stone table for your breakfast or your afternoon cocktails! Then, as you walk to the left, you meet the BBQ area. H huge hand made stone BBQ and a large table for 15 people, all protected by the sun or the wind, are the reasons to spend half of your day out of the house with your friends or family. You can cook and taste the fresh vegies from the garden, the local meat and fish and enjoy real mediterannean cuisine! Last but not at all eat, comes the swimming pool, on the other edge of the estate, with its pool bed.... What a shelter.... You need to be here to realize the feeling of taking a nap on this bed. The orange grove with the sweet smell and the bees flying make a dreamy combination....
