Description:
Chase Real Estate Corfu is pleased to present this beautifully constructed detached stone house in Agios Onoufrios, close to Pelekas and some of the most popular beaches on Corfu's west coast. Built in 2009 and renovated in 2010, the property offers approximately 265m² of total constructed space, including a 189m² main residence, an independent 42m² studio, a 20m² stone garage and a 14m² storage room. With six bedrooms and three bathrooms in total, traditional stone construction, exposed timber ceilings, central heating, solar panels and a private garden, the property combines the character of traditional Corfiot architecture with the practical systems required for comfortable year-round living.
The Main House
The main residence extends to approximately 189m² and has been designed as a substantial family home, providing five bedrooms and two bathrooms together with generous living areas. One of the defining characteristics of the property is its extensive use of natural materials, with solid stonework inside and outside, wooden ceilings and large exposed timber beams creating a traditional appearance that feels particularly appropriate to its Corfu setting.
High ceilings enhance the sense of space throughout the principal living areas, while the stone fireplace creates a natural focal point within the home. The property also benefits from central heating powered by a wood boiler, allowing it to be comfortably occupied throughout the winter as well as during the summer season. Air conditioning provides additional climate control during the warmer months.
Triple-glazed mirrored windows have been installed, providing another indication of the attention given to the property's construction and specification. Natural stone balconies continue the architectural character externally and provide attractive spaces from which to enjoy the surroundings.
The house has been maintained in excellent condition and was recently painted, giving the property an appearance that remains remarkably fresh despite its solid, traditional construction. The roof tiles were also replaced approximately three years ago, representing another important recent improvement.
The Independent Studio
In addition to the main residence, the property includes an independent studio of approximately 42m² with its own bathroom. This additional accommodation brings the property to a total of six bedrooms and three bathrooms and significantly increases the flexibility of the overall residence.
The studio can function as private guest accommodation for visiting friends or family, allowing them to remain close to the main house while maintaining their own independent space. It could equally be used for an older child, extended family member, home office or other independent accommodation depending on the requirements of the future owner.
For buyers considering rental possibilities, the separation of the studio from the principal residence also creates potential for supplementary guest or rental use. This combination of a substantial five-bedroom main residence and an additional independent unit is particularly useful for larger families or buyers looking for a Corfu property capable of accommodating different generations or groups without compromising privacy.
Systems and Construction
The property's specification reflects a focus on durability and comfortable year-round use. In addition to the wood-fired central heating system and air conditioning, the house benefits from a full solar panel system and a water storage tank with a stated capacity of approximately 2 cubic metres.
The solid stone construction, triple-glazed mirrored windows, timber ceilings and exposed beams combine practical construction quality with a traditional aesthetic. The recent replacement of the roof tiles and the property's overall excellent maintenance condition further reduce the immediate work required by a new owner.
The property can also be sold fully furnished with high-quality traditional dark wood furniture. The existing furniture is valued by the owner at approximately €15,000 and can remain for a buyer who wishes to acquire the house furnished, allowing the traditional interior character of the property to be retained.
Gardens and Grounds
The residence benefits from approximately 170m² of garden space surrounding the house, providing a manageable outdoor area that complements the substantial internal accommodation without requiring the maintenance associated with a large rural estate.
Also included are a 20m² stone garage and a separate 14m² storage room, both constructed in a style consistent with the main residence. The garage provides valuable covered space for a vehicle or additional equipment, while the storage building offers practical capacity for tools, seasonal furniture and general household storage.
The stone balconies, garden and additional buildings collectively extend the usable space beyond the main residence and reinforce the cohesive architectural character of the property.
The Location
Agios Onoufrios provides a convenient position close to Pelekas and the west coast while remaining within approximately 20 minutes of Corfu Town. This gives the property a particularly practical balance between village living, beach access and proximity to the island's principal commercial and administrative centre.
Kontogialos Beach is approximately four minutes away by car, while Ermones can be reached in approximately five minutes and Glyfada in around ten minutes. The location therefore provides straightforward access to several of Corfu's best-known west-coast beaches without requiring the owner to live directly within a busy coastal resort.
Pelekas and the surrounding villages provide access to local amenities, restaurants and everyday services, while Corfu Town remains close enough for work, shopping, entertainment and year-round requirements.
Investment Potential
Offered through Chase Real Estate Corfu, this property has considerable flexibility because of its size, independent accommodation and location. With six bedrooms and three bathrooms across the main residence and studio, it can comfortably function as a substantial permanent family home while also being well suited to use as a holiday residence.
The independent 42m² studio is particularly valuable from an investment perspective, providing accommodation that can potentially operate separately from the main five-bedroom residence. This creates possibilities for guest accommodation, multi-generational living or rental use depending on the future owner's requirements.
Its proximity to Kontogialos, Glyfada and Ermones, combined with convenient access to Corfu Town, also gives the property a strong geographical position for buyers wanting access to both the west coast and the centre of the island. The extensive stone construction, traditional architectural details and excellent maintenance condition further distinguish it from properties requiring substantial immediate renovation.
