Estate
High Groves House is situated on an enormous private estate in Greece, close to the sea, and only a 1 ½ hour drive from Athens.
A combination of luxury and rustic countryside, this magnificent retreat is an active horse farm, vineyard, and agricultural estate, producing organically fed sheep, rabbits, squab and chickens, as well as a wide variety of organic vegetables, set amidst vineyards, fruit and nut orchards, and a private forest, all just 15 minutes from the local beaches.
The estate’s orchards include 2,000 Olive, 900 Apricot, 300 Pear, 650 Clementine, 350 Orange, 75 Grapefruit, 230 Pistachio, 125 Walnut, 75 Hazelnut, plus miscellaneous Pecan, Almond, Fig, Apple and Quince trees. The mature Vineyard consists of 2,000 grapevines of the Roditis, Muscat-Hamburg, Espana and Savatiano varieties. The estate is endowed with abundant and extremely pure natural water resources. Separate stone stables, paddocks and a fenced bird enclosure are at an appropriate distance from the residences, providing visitors with an opportunity to visit and feed the farm’s beautiful horses, colts, rabbits, ducks, turkeys, chickens and geese.
A natural bowl in shape, extending to the tops of the surrounding mountains, High Groves Estate combines privacy and seclusion, with accessibility to the sea, to Athens and to many of Greece’s most important ancient sites, including the Theatres and Asclepion of Epidaurus, Mycenae, Tyrinth, Corinth, Argos, Nemea and the Palamidi of Nafplio.
High Groves is a 15 minute drive from the seaside village of Ancient Epidavrus, with its hydrofoil service to Pireaus and the islands of the Saronic Gulf. All-weather graded dirt roads connect the estate on two sides to nearby paved roads. A main highway connects the area with Corinth and Athens, as well as Nauplio, Porto Heli, Kilada and other nearby points of interest in Peloponnesus. A bower of immense natural beauty, High Groves enjoys a distant view of the sea from one of its promontories, as well as exquisite mountain and agricultural views throughout.
High Groves is a world class private country estate, as well as a stunning agricultural and wildlife preserve. It is the perfect choice for visitors seeking natural beauty, privacy and a breath of fresh air.
