A Timeless Waterfront Home in the Heart of Gaios
Averto Aivali is a remarkable waterfront residence set at the very heart of Gaios, housed within one of the most impressive historic buildings on the island. Built in the early 18th century during the Venetian occupation of Paxos, the property carries a rich and fascinating history, having served over time as the residence of the British Governor, the Bank of Greece, and the offices of the Port Authority.
Today, this extraordinary port house has been lovingly restored by its current owners to an exceptionally high standard, transforming it into a spacious and elegant apartment that blends historic character with modern comfort. The result is a home that feels both authentic and luxurious, where the story of Paxos lives quietly within its walls.
The apartment’s open-plan living space is the heart of the home. Four large windows frame a panoramic view over the narrow channel of Gaios harbour, where traditional fishing boats move gently across the water and the forested outline of Agios Nikolaos Island rises opposite, crowned by its Venetian fortress. From morning light to evening reflections, the view is constantly changing and endlessly captivating.
Despite its central position, Averto Aivali offers moments of calm and privacy, including a small rear courtyard that provides a quiet outdoor retreat for dining and relaxation. With the square, shops, tavernas, and cafés of Gaios just steps away, the apartment offers a rare opportunity to live directly within the rhythm of village life.
Averto Aivali is ideal for guests who appreciate history, atmosphere, and location—those who wish to experience Paxos from one of its most iconic addresses.
