Sachtouris Heritage Estate – Historic Hydra Mansion & Panoramic Land Portfolio – €2,500,000

An extraordinary opportunity to acquire a landmark estate of historical significance on the prestigious island of Hydra.

The Sachtouris Heritage Estate comprises four adjoining plots totaling 2,531 sq.m., located in the sought-after area of Agios Athanasios. Elevated approximately 75 meters above the harbor, the property enjoys truly unobstructed panoramic views across the port of Hydra, the town, surrounding mountains, and the Saronic Gulf.

A Rare Combination of Heritage & Development Potential

At the heart of the estate lies a remarkable 19th-century stone mansion (approx. 1800), spanning 245 sq.m. across two levels and situated on a 566 sq.m. plot. Rich in character and authenticity, the residence features multiple rooms and auxiliary spaces, along with a large traditional water cistern comparable in scale to a swimming pool. The grounds are enhanced by mature Mediterranean vegetation, including cypress, almond, and palm trees.

Expansion & Investment Opportunities

• Plot 1 (1,343 sq.m.): Contains visible ruins of three historic residences, allowing for new construction under current planning regulations (building coefficient 0.5), suitable for private or commercial development.
• Plots 3 & 4 (625 sq.m. total): Non-buildable yet exceptionally positioned, offering some of the finest views on the island. Ideal as landscaped gardens, leisure areas, or private retreat spaces.
• Existing ruins across the estate provide valuable development rights and flexibility for future expansion.

Location & Accessibility

The estate is uniquely accessible via three scenic footpaths of varying distance and difficulty, while a charming trail leads to Avlaki Beach in just 5 minutes—an exceptional feature for Hydra, known for its preserved character and car-free lifestyle.

Historical Significance

This distinguished property once served as the residence and headquarters of Georgios Sachtouris, a prominent figure of the Greek War of Independence (1821) and later Minister of the early Greek state. The estate has hosted royal presence, including King Otto, further enhancing its cultural and historical value.

Ownership & Flexibility

The property is fully registered and legally documented within the Greek land registry and cadastre systems, with all titles readily available for due diligence.

Offered either as a whole or in parts:

• Entire Estate: €2,500,000
