Description

In a Flash

Casa Stone is a true historic 19th century architectural gem, and a fantastic holiday home, combined. It that can accommodate 2 (+1) people in its compact, yet comfortable 60sqm. space. Perched on the rim of the Nisyros Caldera, Casa Stone offers superior quality accommodation in total relaxation. It is an ideal choice wishing to become part of the well-known Greek Island summer life, vibe and relaxed mentality, all in a charmingly traditional setting.

The owner, an architect with a postgraduate degree in the restoration of historic buildings, has been awarded the Europa Nostra Prize for the restoration of the ancient fortification of the Nisyros Acropolis, dated back to the 5th century B.C. Luckily, she also designed this landmark property, due to become a reference point for those with an eye for quality, beauty and design visiting the island of Nisyros.

Interior

Casa Stone has been restored and interior designed with absolute respect for its authentic architectural form and its historically artistic features. Fusing traditional elements and textures with a modern minimal design, it has been decorated utilising white and earth tones. The result is a fully contemporary stone holiday home complete with all modern amenities, which still skillfully succeeds in paying absolute respect to the local traditional architecture and style.

This lovely open plan 60sqm. stone holiday home offers guests direct access from the street level via a few steps. The sitting and sleeping areas have been skillfully combined, allowing an extra guest to sleep on the comfortable built-in corner sofa, if that is required.

The kitchen is fully equipped and offers all modern amenities, and the dining area is where the old wood-fired oven was, which has been preserved as well. The spacious sculpture-like bathroom features built-in shelves, a polished cement shower unit, travertine sinks, an inox shower, and sink faucets. It is a lovely unique space, full of historical charm, and stories.

Originally, it was a semi-sheltered space under the yard, which occurred after preserving the built stone stairway which used to connect the two floors. The cavities in the oven, where wood and food were once inserted, are still visible. As is the opening of the underground cistern that once filled with rainwater during the winter, which you can still hear running! An authentic living experience in every sense of the word.

Exterior

The landscape surrounding the whole property has been awarded with the “2016 Best Landscape Design”. Getting there, you will get of full sense of why this is so. Let’s just say that it radiates simple natural beauty, and elegance in its simplest, purest form.

The outdoor space can be best described as the natural continuation of the interior space. It artfully blends into the surrounding stone-built environment and has been laid out in levels, featuring built-in lounges and a dining area, all under the protective shade of a huge almond tree.

There are numerous aloe vera, lavender and thyme flower beds, making the yard feel at one with the surrounding natural landscape, while the view of the Aegean Sea beyond is simply breathtaking.

Whereabouts

Casa Stone is located on the round volcanic island of Nisyros, positioned near Kos and Tilos, and is clearly one of the most well-kept secret destinations of the Dodecanese island complex in the Aegean Sea. Nisyros has managed to somehow remain untouched by mass tourism. Instead it has been a prime choice by artisans and intellectuals, thus retaining its quaint traditional character in every sense.

Nisyros is an island that boasts numerous unspoilt beaches, superb landscapes and unique walking paths, which people travel from across the globe to visit. It is a small island (only 8km of diameter) and is home to the youngest volcano in Greece (160.000 years old) that is still active today. The last eruption occurred in 1888.

The larger crater, named ‘Stefanos’, is in fact so hot that rubber shoes may even slightly ‘melt’ on visiting it. The result of the volcanic activity is a set of unique and breathtaking geological formations (rock formations and distinctive fossils), a fertile soil, high trees and vegetation all year round. It is no surprise then, that Nisyros is part of the Natura 2000 program, which was created as a means to protect and preserve natural wildlife and uniquely exceptional ecosystems across Europe.

According to Greek mythology, during the period of the ‘Gigantomachy’ (clash of the Giants/Titans), Poseidon (the god of the sea) cut off a part of Kos and in a furious tantrum threw it at the giant Polivotis, with the intention of killing him. This rock, which did indeed crush the giant, became Nisyros. Legend says that the half-dead giant shakes the earth every now and then with his groans, thus awakening the volcano.

Casa Stone holiday home is strategically located in the center of the island in a picturesque preserved traditional village, part of the rim of the Nisyros Caldera. The specific village of Emporios is protected by the ministry of Culture, as it is home to the ruins of a medieval Castle. A natural sauna in a cave is also located at the entrance of the village!
