Portrait is a rare waterfront retreat set in one of the most privileged locations on the Ionian island of Lefkada. Found at the tip of a private peninsula, the property enjoys uninterrupted, panoramic views spanning 280 degrees across the sea to the legendary islands of Ithaca, Cephalonia, Meganisi, Kalamos, Kastos, and Akoudi. Its extraordinary positioning not only ensures privacy and tranquility, but also south-facing orientation—an uncommon feature—bathing the home in sunlight from dawn until dusk.
Clean architectural lines, natural materials, and a seamless integration with the landscape create an atmosphere of understated sophistication. Every element of the construction was carefully considered to reflect both durability and aesthetics, offering the perfect balance between function and beauty.
The villa’s design, the work of an award-winning Swiss architect, ensures a level of structural integrity, elegance, and design detail that is truly exceptional.
Inside, the interiors are bright and airy, with soaring ceilings and expansive double-height windows that frame breathtaking sea views and flood the space with natural light. The open-concept layout connects the living room, dining area, and kitchen, encouraging relaxed, sociable living.
Portrait offers five spacious bedrooms and six bathrooms, each designed with clean lines, high-quality materials, and thoughtful finishes. The villa is perfectly equipped for year-round use, with underfloor heating in the main living areas and solar heating for the pool—ideal for those who wish to experience island living during the quieter, off-season months.
Beyond the 287 sq.m. of elegant living space, the villa includes an additional basement area of approximately 100 sq.m., housing laundry facilities, generous storage, and all mechanical infrastructure. These functional areas ensure that daily life remains uncluttered and that the main living zones are preserved purely for comfort and leisure.
The outdoor areas shine, with manicured lawns and lush Mediterranean gardens enhancing the villa’s natural charm.
Multiple terraces provide ideal spots for dining, lounging, and entertaining, and barbecue area encourages long, leisurely meals in the open air. At the heart of it all is the stunning infinity pool, seemingly suspended above the sea and offering mesmerising sunset views that shift in colour and intensity as the day fades into evening.
Situated close to the picturesque seaside village of Syvota, with its charming tavernas and marina, and just a short boat ride to the crystal-clear waters of Piscina Beach, Portrait is perfectly located for those who want to enjoy both seclusion and easy access to amenities and exploration.
One of only two Greek islands connected to the mainland by bridge, Lefkada offers the convenience of direct access without the need for ferries, along with proximity to the nearby Preveza airport, which connects to numerous European cities—making this exceptional retreat both easily accessible and completely unforgettable.
