Tucked away in a tangle of olive groves and citrus trees, you'll find this home on the east coast of Tinos. Here, tranquillity is guaranteed. Set against a hillside backdrop, dense foliage and lush lawn cocoon the rustic facade, and at the garden's edge, a secluded beach awaits. Spend your days relaxing here and paddling in the crystal clear waters.

With its main building and two annexes, the design of this home is well suited to families. Inside, it's all exposed brick walls and beamed ceilings cloaked in a lick of ivory paint. Red accents run throughout the interiors, from the quaint shuttered windows to the striking kitchen cabinets – even the glossy Smeg refrigerator boasts a handsome shade of crimson. It probably won't surprise you that the owner is an antique connoisseur. Vintage touches are abundant here, infusing the space with warmth.

We love the ample outdoor spaces, from the sun-drenched patio to the vast gardens, offering pockets of shade and dreamy sea views. Spend mornings gathered at the dining pergola, allowing wafts of coffee and the gentle sea breeze to awaken you from your slumber. If you fancy exploring the island, take a ten-minute drive to the medieval village of Triantaros, or explore Tinos, the lively capital, which is only ten kilometres away.
