INTERIOR
The entrance to Villa Chrysalis leads into a spacious open
plan sitting room and kitchen with plenty of windows facing
the pool and terraces. The sitting room is comfortably furnished
with 2 sofas and chairs. The corner fireplace, open wood-beamed
ceilings and large dining table make an inviting family gathering
place and give the villa a traditional and homey atmosphere.
The spacious kitchen has several modern conveniences including
dishwasher and its high ceilings and abundant windows create
a light and airy space. A double French door from the dining
area leads to a spacious terrace with an outdoor dining table
which is the perfect place for al fresco meals. With the enchanting
views of olive groves, red tiled roofs and the bustling harbour
below, many hours can be spent here just mesmerized by the
views. Also on the main level is a bedroom with double bed and a
roomy w/c shower room. These are reached by a small hallway
that can be closed off, providing privacy so that the w/c
can be used exclusively by the occupants of the master bedroom.
This sizable bedroom is furnished with a beautiful dressing
table, bedside tables and a pretty wood and iron bed. Opening
the hallway door allows others to use the upstairs w/c while
in the common areas and around the pool.The bottom level of the house is reached via a stairway from
the kitchen and leads to a hallway from which there is access
to two bedrooms and a large w/c shower room in between them.
Each bedroom is equipped with two single beds (one of which
can be converted to a double bed) and are comfortably furnished
with dressing tables and plenty of wardrobe space. Both bedrooms
have double French doors leading to a small terrace furnished
with table and chairs where one can relax and enjoy the lush
garden and views of olive groves. From the terraces there
is access to the pool area and main terrace via an outside
staircase.
EXTERIOR
One of Villa Chrysalis? best features is its spacious
outdoor areas, which are completely private. The pool is surrounded
by large terraces with sweeping views to the sea and valley.
There is a built-in poolside BBQ for cooking up sumptuous
outdoor meals. The large terrace outside the kitchen has a
sizable dining table and is easily accessible to BBQ and kitchen
alike. From all outdoor spaces on the main level the views
are splendid of hillsides in velvety green, light blue skies
and turquoise blue seas.
SURROUNDINGS
Set in the countryside surrounded by olive groves, Villa
Chrysalis sits alone on the hillside just above Skopelos town.
Due to its position, the villa and terraces are not overlooked
by any other properties. Many walking paths and trails are
within easy reach of the villa, as well as a footpath leading
down to town. The footpath of 150meters leads to the main
ring road (**please note that the foot path is quite steep
and proper walking shoes are recommended). Once on the ring
road that skirts the town, you will find numerous routes that
wind down the hill through the cobbled, stepped streets of
town to the waterfront. Several restaurants are within easy
walking distance to the villa via the foot path. The town’s
harbour front is approx. 15min walk down hill from the villa.
A leisurely stroll will take you past the quaint backstreet
boutiques, souvenir shops and eventually to the harbour where
you will find an array of cafe bars and traditional tavernas.
SUITABILITY
The location of Villa Chrysalis suits all who want a superior
quality villa in the countryside, with the convenience of
town only minutes away. It is perfect for larger families
and couples holidaying together. The proximity of town and
beaches make this a villa to suit all.
