Home details
The villa is at “Voreina” (Northern) region located beneath the remains of the Venetian castle (Kasteli) which is at the top of the hill. The typical medieval narrow streets, fortified walls, and hidden passages and the unique Cycladic local architecture are maintained throughout this traditional settlement.
Set in an old factory, this villa breathes with history. Before entering the main square of Pyrgos, turn left towards Exo Gonia village and after 20 m turn right and follow this street until you reach Agios Christoforos church. After this point motor vehicles are not allowed and Villa Fabrique is located approximately 120 meters or a 2 minute walk.
The property has a very sleek and minimal loft–style design, and has been restored with a deep understanding for its traditional Santorini architecture using the old style of polished cement and eco–friendly materials. Elements of the factory have been incorporated into the design and a huge piece of machinery stands like a magnificent sculpture as the centerpiece of one of the numerous living spaces. The restoration project took years of meticulous research, as Fabrique is located just underneath the historically important Castle of Pyrgos. The floors were painstakingly created by a local craftsman, who mixed colors and cement to create the beautiful matte finish throughout.
The villa boasts generous outdoor space: with two impressive pool terraces and various additional alfresco arrangements. Care and attention has been lavished on this home to make sure everything is stylish and luxurious without being fussy. It offers unbeatable comfort and effortless elegance for what is truly a one–of–a–kind luxury villa.
The complex was designed and operated in the past for the production of wine and tsipouro. The basic spatial organization of the buildings were based on the production and storage of wine. Specifically, the basic organizational type is made up of spaces for stepping on the grapes that are attached next to a large double height space where the wine is stored in barrels.
Some spaces are cave like (yposkafoi) and hide their form and some are expressed as cubic volumes. Domes, arches, thick walls, small windows compose the distinguished vernacular complex geometry and form of the buildings. The typological unit which makes up the fabric of Pyrgos is evident in the strict spatial organization of the complex with its protected courtyard and the various spaces built around it, allowing an almost “theatrical” reading of the space while creating a sense of increased privacy and introversion.
Due to its layout, Fabrique can be split into totally separate and private villas, or rented as a whole – a truly knockout retreat for an unforgettable wedding or a big family reunion. It can also host week–long spa retreats and cooking schools off–season.
