Description

For sale: a second-floor mansion apartment with attic in Corfu's historic centre.
The building is a pure Venetian-style structure, approximately 450 years old, known in local records as the Kakolyris Mansion. It sits between the Church of Saint Spyridon and the Metropolitan Church of Saint Theodora. Liston Square is a 2 minute walk; the Old Courts (Cafe Giali parking) are 3 minutes away.

This unique, free standing mansion is the only property in the immediate historic core that is fully independent and naturally through ventilated on all sides. The apartment's trapezoidal plan has its longest side to the rear, featuring an 8 m stone balcony serving the two salon rooms. Below that balcony on the first floor is an external marble staircase leading to a broad landing/atrium (approx. 9 m²), which is also the entrance to the rear first floor apartment.

The second floor mansion apartment has a gross area of 183 m² (approx. 150 m² usable excluding party walls) with access from the building's main entrance. The attic, also 183 m², is accounted separately and can be fully independent. The property is ideal for owner occupation or as a tourism investment - the high roof space offers potential to subdivide into smaller units totaling roughly 300 m².

Constructed entirely of stone in traditional Venetian technique using Siniotiki stone and granite, the building features old solid bricks in the relieving arches and a mortar rich in crushed porcelain - materials also used in Corfu's Old and New Fortresses. No iron is used in the structure; even the window sills are stone. An elevator can be installed thanks to the load bearing masonry and an unusually wide 2 m staircase (most historic buildings have ~1 m). Ceiling height in the noble apartment is 4.20 m; dining and salon ceilings are adorned with painted decorations attributed to the Venetian painter Bizani.

The attic's front aspect overlooks neighbouring roofs and the bell tower of Saint Spyridon; the rear aspect offers views of the Metropolitan bell tower, the Old Town and the New Fortress. There is scope to create a veranda or balcony with classical balustrading to take full advantage of the panoramic views.
