Villa Sophy was a family home to Sophy and David who fell in love with Greece and emigrated along with their grown up children in 1985.
Father and Son, carpenters by trade, built the two houses on the land, with the exception of just a couple of things, with their own hands. The main structure of Villa Sophy is still the same.
The renovations for Villa Sophy were completed in 2021. Many of the original designs and brush strokes were kept and add to the preservation of the happy memories and joyful events experienced by the whole family.
David was an avid gardener who loved to grow varieties of tomatoes all of which were harvested and made into sauces for the winter months. October was olive picking time and actually still is. Olives are taken and pressed for the years supply of olive oil. A taster you will find in the kitchen which has been set up as the heart of the house, with an amazing isle and views of the garden and pool. The kitchen is equipped with top of the range cooking facilities.
The Villa has 5 double bedrooms each with their own ensuite modern bathroom, flat screen TV, comfort cooling, and double doors leading to their own terrace.
There are two small villages within 4km which offer sea front restaurants, bars and entertainment (5 min drive or 15 min cycle). On the beach front you can find Varkiza Beach Resort offering private beach beds, food, drink, sea front massages and water sports.
