Forbes Magazine once voted Patmos as “the most idyllic place to live in Europe”. This is Greece in its most authentic form and steeped in history. Bustling Chora with its shops and thriving restaurant scene is reached by car in seven minutes. A swim in the turquoise waters of Epsimia Bay is a 150m hop away. This spectacular home stands, perched on a hill, amid ten acres of peace and tranquillity. The panoramic ocean views are vast and fabulous. Nothing beats a swim in the dreamy infinity pool with the ocean spreading as far as the eye can see. Sigh. Inside, the home is Byzantine in style. Think clean and rustic with those sea views pouring in through every window. Two separate kitchens and a chic en-suite for each bedroom mean there’s plenty of space for a gang of fourteen. For some extra privacy, head up to the relaxing roof garden and watch the waves with a glass of something cold. Or chill on your bedroom balcony. After a day of swimming in the sea, or exploring local Grikos, fire up the barbecue for a starlit dinner. It doesn't get much better than this.
