Phineas occupies an elevated position on the northern coastline of Kefalonia, overlooking the Ionian Sea with open views towards the dramatic coastline surrounding Myrtos Bay. Oriented entirely towards the water, the property takes full advantage of its setting, with uninterrupted sea views extending across the horizon and a strong visual connection to the surrounding landscape from almost every part of the house. Constructed in local stone and finished with pale timber detailing, the architecture draws on the character of traditional Ionian houses while embracing the openness expected of a contemporary coastal residence. The approach unfolds gradually through the hillside setting, with the sea becoming increasingly present as the property comes into view. Once inside, the relationship between the house and the coastline remains constant, with large openings framing the water and bringing natural light deep into the interiors throughout the day. The principal living spaces are arranged around a bright and open central volume, where double-height ceilings enhance the sense of scale while maintaining a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. A palette of pale stone, painted timber and soft neutral tones reflects the colours of the surrounding landscape, creating interiors that feel calm, understated and closely connected to their setting. The layout allows the living, dining and kitchen areas to flow naturally together while remaining oriented towards the sea. The villa accommodates four bedrooms, each positioned to benefit from natural light and views across the coastline. Several open directly onto terraces or balconies facing the water, while the overall arrangement of the accommodation ensures a sense of privacy and separation between the rooms. A self-contained guest suite sits independently from the main residence, providing additional accommodation while maintaining the same architectural language and relationship to the landscape. Outdoor spaces form a natural extension of the house. Broad terraces follow the contours of the site, creating a series of connected areas that remain focused on the sea views beyond. The swimming pool occupies a prominent position overlooking the coastline, while covered and open-air terraces allow the exterior spaces to be used comfortably throughout the day. The transition between interior and exterior living is handled with simplicity, allowing the setting itself to remain the dominant feature. The architecture sits comfortably within its surroundings, using local materials and restrained detailing to establish a sense of permanence within the landscape. Stone, timber and natural finishes create continuity between the house and its environment, while the elevated position captures both the sea breeze and the changing light across the Ionian throughout the day. Although peaceful and private, the property remains within easy reach of Fiskardo and the northern villages of Kefalonia, as well as several of the island’s most celebrated beaches and coves. The result is a residence defined by its relationship with the sea, its elevated position above the coastline and the quiet rhythm of life on the northern edge of the island.
