House for sale in Sivota with 4 bedrooms – ID 2228387

Designed by its architect and owner, Sivota Olive Grove Villa is a 250 m² contemporary private residence set on an elevated olive grove plot above Sivota on the southeast side of Lefkada, positioned to maximize unobstructed exposure to the Ionian Sea while maintaining complete visual and physical privacy. The architectural concept is driven by a clear spatial strategy: permeability, staggered privacy zoning and a continuous modulation between indoor and outdoor volumes, while remaining within walking distance of the village of Sivota, its marina and waterfront restaurants. The building is organized as a series of interlocking levels rather than closed compartments, allowing spatial continuity across levels and functions. The supporting structure emphasizes long lines of sight to the sea, with carefully controlled openings that frame perspectives while preventing direct views. Solid and void are treated as equal design elements, with the building form breaking up into terraces, courtyards and transitional buffer zones. Internally, the villa consists of four primary suites, each designed as an independent micro-unit with bathroom en suite and optimized acoustic and visual separation. The arrangement of the suites follows a radial privacy logic, ensuring that no private volume directly intersects another's line of sight or circulation path. Material transitions are deliberately kept conservative, strengthening continuity and at the same time subtly differentiating the spatial functions. The main living space functions as a double-height, experience-oriented core and integrates lounge, dining and circulation into a single, coherent spatial field. Large format glazing systems act as adjustable thresholds rather than fixed boundaries, enabling a complete open-plan transformation while maintaining environmental control and balanced shading. A secondary 50 m² autonomous volume is integrated into the lower spatial hierarchy and designed with complete functional independence. It can be used as a guest area, staff accommodation or supporting assisted living area, with potentially separate access and full infrastructure readiness without disrupting the primary residential zoning logic. Conceived as a fully designed architectural surface rather than a complementary terrace, the roof level functions as an elevated outdoor living space with integrated seating geometry, shaded micro-zones and uninterrupted panoramic exposure to the Ionian Basin, coordinated with wind exposure, sun path and view corridors to ensure usability throughout the day. The entire spatial composition of the villa follows a strict principle of controlled permeability: inside and outside, depth, threshold staggering and framed landscape sections are continually negotiated. The surrounding olive grove is treated not as a context but as an active extension of the architectural system, enhancing privacy while maintaining visual openness. At its core, Sivota Olive Grove Villa is structured as a precisely executed architectural sequence in which circulation, light and landscape are calibrated elements within a unified spatial framework, and privacy engineering, volumetric clarity and experiential continuity are prioritized over decorative expression. Combining scale, natural beauty, flexibility and direct proximity to the sea, the property captures the essence of coastal living on Lefkada — spacious, tranquil and deeply connected to its landscape. Despite its retreat nature, the picturesque port of Sivota is just two minutes away and offers a marina, waterfront restaurants and a lively yet upscale summer atmosphere.Beyond its architectural and lifestyle appeal, the property is fully eligible for the Greek Golden Visa program and also meets the requirements of the Greek non-dom tax regime.
