A planned two year break from city life in Australia to be on the Greek island of Ithaca went a little awry on discovering that we'd inherited great-grandfather's small olive grove. A peaceful spot, set on a hillside above our favourite beach, it worked its magic and we decided to pool talents and build four traditional houses under the olive trees.
The years since 1995 have seen land size quadruple with eco-landscaping of 8 acres of hillside including olive groves and forest, the addition of outdoor amenities and a separate farm yard .... and an enormously satisfying lifestyle for us that honors and respects Ithaca’s natural geographic beauty and the richness of its flora.
