Villa Xanadu is located in the idyllic and picturesque mountain village Karmi/Karaman in the Kyrenia region of Northern Cyprus. This historic Cypriot villa has 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths and a large fully equipped kitchen. The sofa in the sitting room also folds out into a double bed. Ceiling fans in every room and 2 foot thick walls keep the villa cool in the summer and warm in the winter.
The kitchen, living/dining area and large terrace are on the entry level and the bedrooms and baths are on the lower level. Each bedroom has French doors that open onto the lower terrace all with phenomenal views of the Mediterranean. The upper and lower levels are connected by a spiral staircase.
While the villa is comfortable and charming, the real draw is the large upper terrace with breathtaking views of the Mediterranean. On a clear day, you can sit and look at the mountains of Turkey across a wide expanse of deep blue sea. The villa sits in a large garden with olive, almond and citrus trees and is set off the road for complete privacy and quiet.

Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 2009
Why the Owner Chose Kyrenia
North Cyprus is the Mediterranean’s best kept secret. It’s slow pace of life, value for money and delightful village feel make it an ideal get away for every season. North Cyprus’ slower commercial and industrial growth lends to minimal pollution and an Atmosphere of peace and quiet. It has an ideal climate with warm, dry summers and mild winters, and an average of 300 days of sunshine a year. If you are looking for more excitement, nearby Kyrenia is teeming with shops where you can buy local handicrafts such as Lefkara embroidery, carpet weaving and basket weaving. And there are plenty of cafes, taverns and casinos where you can enjoy the local beer, wine and cuisine. The area is steeped in history providing many sites such as castles, abbeys, and shipwrecks to explore. Overlooked by St Hilarion Castle with extraordinary views of the northern coastline, this lovingly restored village is inhabited mostly by expats. The village has its own market, art gallery, pub and a fabulous restaurant/bar called Levant which is open for lunch and dinner six days a week. Beautiful mountain hikes are just a step outside the door and the nearest beach is only a 20 minute drive. Whether you live here year round or are just here for a weeks holiday, Karmi invites you in and makes you feel very welcome!
The Unique Benefits of this House
Villa Xanadu has the advantage of being located in a village 1000' up. It's high altitude promises cool breezes, stunning views of both the mountains and the sea, and undisturbed peace and quiet, while the large garden insures complete privacy. Every room opens onto a terrace or patio contributing to the sensation of living outdoors while offering every comfort of a home. Villa Xanadu is a place where stress and worries fade away (at least for awhile!) allowing you to rest and revive.
