About this property

Villa Murat, Mansion, luxury accommodation

Located in the upper part of Fira (close to Firostefani), right on the cliff of Caldera, Villa Mura’s location combines view and accessibility in the most privileged way. Just five minutes’ walk from the center of Fira (capital town of Santorini), with no other properties or obstacles to volcano view, 300 meter (985ft) above sea level, this exact point where Villa is located, provides the ideal angle to observe volcano and Fira Town view. It is no luck that this is one of the most photographed places in Santorini. Villas yard and pool are located 2 meters (6.5 feet) above the cobbled path, giving the necessary privacy from bystanders and by passers and leaving the majestic volcano and town view intact.

Total of 170 sqm (1830 sqft) internal spaces and 200 sqm (2150 sqft) balconies and terraces.

Why they chose this property

Filomen Murat, my French grandmother, inherited this villa from her uncle Theofanis Tripolitis. The titles of the family house reach back to before the 1900's. This makes it one of the oldest and most historic houses of Santorini. Its construction is estimated at about 1850-1875, but due to the lack of archives the exact construction date cannot be verified. These kind of houses in the Aegean Sea islands, are rare and unique. They are called “Kapetanospita” (Captain’s Houses) and they are equivalent to American Mansions, since they were the largest private buildings until the 1970's, and only Captains (boat owners) could afford to build and sustain them.

Villa Murat takes its name from my grandmother Filomen Murat, who holds the coat of arms used as the Villa logo from her direct ancestor Antoine Murat. Antoine Murat was appointed Viscount by his first cousin, Joachim Murat, King of Naples and son in Law of Napoleon Bonaparte I, Emperor of the French 1804-1814

What makes this property unique
