If, like much of the world, you’ve fallen under the spell of Netflix’s Wednesday—a masterful blend of gothic drama, dark comedy, and thriller intrigue—then its staggering 94.5 million views this season will come as no surprise. Beyond its gripping plot, what truly enchants audiences is the sumptuous world-building: every set, prop, and detail crafted with meticulous artistry. At the heart of this cinematic allure lies Nevermore Academy, a showcase of luxuriant gothic grandeur that has become an icon in its own right.
To celebrate both Halloween and Wednesday’s broodingly elegant aesthetic, Sotheby’s International Realty curated an exclusive selection of five remarkable homes—each one so evocative, it feels as though Wednesday Addams herself might be persuaded to approve.
Among these distinctive residences is the striking Tower House in Kommeno, Corfu.
While Wednesday may favour Victorian darkness, this Kommeno villa proves Gothic drama can translate beautifully into Mediterranean contemporary design. Spanning 495 sqm across three levels on 7,200 sqm of rugged Corfu coastline, Tower House features natural stone preserved within its striking architecture, floor-to-ceiling glass capturing Ionian Sea panoramas, and clean minimalist lines. Five luxurious bedrooms and five bathrooms (four en-suite) offer underfloor heating throughout. The infinity-edge pool melts into azure waters, complemented by a heated plunge pool and fire pit lounge. Eligible for the Golden Visa and Greek Non Dom Program, this seafront sanctuary delivers contemporary sophistication with architectural reverence for nature’s drama.
