She Sells Sea Dreams Andros

Property Description

The beach calls at this delightfully rustic yet chic villa on the coast of Andros. It’s just a short pad down to the sandy bay where loungers await on soft sand and a cute little taverna serves cold drinks. The main town of Andros (Chora) is just a short, four kilometres drive away too for boutiques and restaurants in picturesque narrow streets.

But spending all your days at this villa isn’t such a bad idea, especially when you’ve got a view like this – over the rugged coastline and the sparkling Aegean Sea. The decor embraces its beachy locale with wicker lampshades hung from white-wood pergolas outside, a smooth stone sofa in the corner and a sprawling day bed perfect for stargazing. It all makes the most of that sea view from the wrap-around terrace.

The boho feel continues inside where worn wood coffee tables and driftwood trinkets sit against pristine white walls. We love the quirky touches like the old spinning wheel and woodworker’s table adorned with object d’art. There’s something medieval about the dining room, but far from a vaulted cellar, it sits in a sun-filled room with big windows looking out to the Aegean. The dine-in kitchen embraces farmhouse charm – we love the stone sink– and there’s plenty of room for the chef of the group to potter around thanks to a wooden kitchen island. Light-filled bedrooms open up onto the terrace and the real bonus is the glorious soaking tub in the main bathroom.
