A wealthy Captain originally built this unique villa in the historical town of Hydra in 1883, but late in the 1980s the building was destroyed by a fire. The current owners have completely restored it with traditional materials such as engraved marble floors for the ground level and wooden floors and timber ceilings for the first floor. Much care has been taken to provide every modern comfort and amenity ensuring a luxurious standard of living. The building is equipped with air conditioning throughout.
House at "Kala Pegadia"
Enjoy the tranquil privacy of this luxurious house with its views of the picturesque town hills. Life is unhurried and peaceful and the only interruption is the clip-clop of the donkeys as they pass by on the cobbled street. From here you can walk effortlessly to the port (400 meters), ride a donkey or take a water taxi to a nearby bay.
The total internal floor space is 195 square meters (634 sq. ft) with plenty of outdoor space on the veranda and the surrounding garden which is shaded by a vine and lemon trees. The house is positioned at the back of the town in a quiet and serene area but it is still close enough to the harbor (center of town) and is in the only street accessible to the 4 vehicles of the municipality. Without a strenuous walk and within 5-10 minutes visitors can therefore easily enjoy the harbor with its many, shops, galleries as well as restaurants, bars and cafes which provide the setting for a vibrant cosmopolitan nightlife.
The accommodation comprises of 4 bedrooms, two with double beds and two with twin single beds, sleeping 8 persons in total. The main double bedroom has an en-suite bathroom, with one shower room en-suite for the second double bedroom, and one shower room shared by the two twin single bedrooms.

The house is equipped with TV, satellite TV reception (upon request at extra charge), a music system, and a telephone for incoming and local calls only. Lavish attention has been paid to the furnishing. Throughout you will find antique furniture, fine paintings and unusual ship carvings.

On the left of the hall you will find a small suite of rooms comprising a small study and the two twin double bedrooms and a spacious marble shower room.
