The two-story main residence features three bedrooms and baths, two sitting rooms on the main floor and a third on the mezzanine level, and a formal dining area served by a well-equipped kitchen. The interior is resplendent owing to exposed stone and wood ceiling beams, illuminated by large windows providing captivating views of the grounds and the sea beyond.

Stone arcades surround the oversized, partially covered pool, creating a grotto-like effect. (Courtesy of Greece Sotheby’s International Realty)

Set on a lot that’s just under half an acre in size and home to an impressively large mulberry tree, the exterior features include a truly huge swimming pool complete with a bridge at its midpoint, further accented by exquisite arcades and more of the amazing stonework seen throughout the property, and a traditional stone oven and barbeque. Several teak pergolas and an outdoor fireplace in the upper garden area allow unobstructed views of the pristine nature surrounding the estate, as well as the Aegean Sea and the nearby, tiny village of Ktikados.

Tinos is home to approximately 10,000 residents, with more making the trek to enjoy the island’s wild beauty, food, culture, and outdoor activities such as hiking and surfing. The island also has significant historic and religious significance. Each year, tens of thousands pay homage to the “Chare Tes” (“Her Grace”) icon of the Virgin Mary at the Church of Panagia Evangelistria, overlooking Tinos town.

The mezzanine-level sitting area in the main residence is well-suited for use as an office or a library. The home’s interior is a living example of the skills of the native artisans. (Courtesy of Greece Sotheby’s International Realty)
