A Greek site has a special feature on Leonard's
house in Hydra with some nice photos:

The short text says that when Leonard bought the
house he decided to keep it as it was
with its old traditional Greek island furniture
and white as it's basic colour.
I can confirm that when I visited the house
I saw there some very old items that you find now
only in antiques shops in Greece.

So beautiful but it looks like a museum, does anyone live or stay in it anymore?

Leonard's son Adam with his family usually
spends the summers there and from time
to time some guests.

I have exactly the same white corner cupboard ... freaky. (Actually, a lot of the antique furniture on Hydra is Russian rather than Greek).
I think some of these photos relate to the period of Suzanne's occupancy. Some years ago, she had a big spread in a glossy magazine showing off the interior.
Leonard himself gave us all a nice tour of the house in the 1988 Omnibus documentary.

When I visited the house back in 2002
on that "familiar table" there were some old
vinyl records by Bob Dylan and Rolling Stones.
