Set among the sun-soaked hills of Attica, The Veranda House is a private countryside retreat surrounded by vineyards, olive groves and farmland. Located in Kalyvia Thorikou, just outside Athens, the 8,500 m² estate offers a peaceful setting while remaining within easy reach of the Athenian Riviera, Cape Sounion and the sights of the Greek capital.
Accommodating up to eight guests across four bedrooms and three bathrooms, the villa has been designed for relaxed indoor-outdoor living. An open-plan kitchen and lounge form the heart of the house, while spacious patios provide panoramic views across the surrounding landscape. Outside, guests can enjoy a private swimming pool with a shaded lounge area, alongside an outdoor kitchen and barbecue for leisurely meals and gatherings.
The estate also features a wine cellar and tasting room, as well as a separate annex with an additional kitchen and two bathrooms. This flexible space can be used for meetings and workshops, making the property suitable for private stays as well as small-scale events.
Throughout the villa, practical amenities include individually controlled air conditioning, Nespresso coffee facilities, flat-screen TVs, safes, bath amenities, robes and slippers. Combining generous grounds with convenient access to both coast and city, The Veranda House provides a comfortable base for experiencing the countryside and cultural highlights of Attica.
The Veranda House is also a working organic estate, offering guests opportunities to experience the landscape, produce and traditions of rural Greece. Seasonal fruit and vegetables are grown in the organic garden alongside Mediterranean herbs, while the surrounding vineyards and olive groves can be explored on foot. A selection of optional experiences brings guests closer to the estate’s produce, including guided visits to the apiary with an expert beekeeper, honey tastings and a Honey Sommelier Experience pairing Greek honeys with local cheeses and fruits. Guests can also take part in a Farm to Fork experience, harvesting seasonal vegetables and herbs before learning to prepare traditional Greek dishes and enjoying the resulting three-course meal. Together with the estate’s wine cellar and tasting room, outdoor kitchen and barbecue, these activities offer an introduction to local food, agriculture and Greek countryside traditions.
- The villa is in a countryside setting outside Athens, so having a car makes exploring the surrounding area much easier.
- Guests should expect wildlife activity set within a rural area
