This Mies van der Rohe Award winning luxury villa in Greece is a striking architectural achievement that explores the elemental as well as spatial relationships in modern design with great sensitivity and imagination. We love the industrial materials, interactive spaces and artistic interiors among the lush, park-like grounds.

Situated in the Perivolia neighborhood within the boundaries of old town Chania, this luxury villa in Greece is surrounded by vineyards and orange groves in a fast developing urban area that combines both old and new.
Designed by the Greek and Libyan architects, Alexandros Marios Nikiforiadis & Danae Skaraki, the meticulously crafted home’s narrow elongated silhouette yields to the contours of the site, orienting all the living spaces to the south facing views of the White Mountains. Constructed of glass, metal and concrete with deep, overhanging roof lines, the structure is defined by two parallel corridors punctuated by steel columns, establishing the connection between the internal and external spaces. Laid out over two levels, the upper floor houses the main living areas with a central fireplace that divides the sitting rooms and eat-in galley kitchen. Illuminated on multiple sides by expansive walls of glass, the interiors offer differing perspectives and angles of the property as well as privacy.
There are two double bedrooms and an en suite master bedroom that includes a private garden patio and a separate study upstairs, and a spacious, detached studio with a bathroom and a kitchen connected to a gallery on the lower level. Designed and furnished to complement the sleek modernism, the owner has populated the house with a sharp mix of contemporary furnishings and decor as well as a personal collection of photography and fine art.
The atrium to the east extends along the full length of the house leading to the protected veranda on the western end. Concealed on all sides with leafy borders, the house achieves a maximum level of privacy with large expanses of lawn, lounge areas and dining terraces.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES
Wifi throughout, satellite cable TV with DVD player and video library, stereo audio system with music library, climate control. Kitchen and bath essentials, laundry facilities. Children’s high chair available. Private parking.
AROUND
Located within the city limits of Chania in the village of Perivolia, you are also a short distance from the Therisso Gorge and the sea. The historic old port town lies along the northern coast with its Venetian harbor, seaside palaces and busy resorts. Perivolia is a quiet, traditional Cretan neighborhood with old stone houses and sits at the entrance to wild natural beauty of Therisso Gorge. You are within about an hour’s drive to the medieval archeological heritage village of Maroulas situated just a few miles from the Venetian harbor town of Rethymno along the northern coast. The western coast features wild natural landscapes and two of the top ten ranked beaches in Greece: Balos and Elafonisi. A quieter less populated region, it stretches from Balos and Falasarna to Livadia, Elafonisi and the Krios peninsula in Paleohora and Kissamos to the north and follows along the the seaside route of the European E4 hiking path.
