Chorafakia, Chania, Crete, Greece

The property is luxurious and is arranged over three levels that are oriented to the northwest towards the sea. It is one of three houses in a small residential complex, each of which is independent with a private plot. They only share a small private driveway which is gated. The property is the last in the complex, beyond which the village ends with a high slope, which ensures that the impressive and unobstructed views will remain as they currently are, in the future.

The building follows the slope of the ground. The upper and central floors lead directly out to a courtyard while there is also a basement, which has natural light through open spaces or windows and is a functional main space of the residence. The plot, which is in the exclusive use of the house, is 480 m² while the courtyard is divided into two large flat levels. Upstairs and on the main frontage are spacious covered verandas and a large courtyard with a barbecue area. From here, there are two entrances, a main one that opens onto an entrance hall and a second one that leads to the kitchen. On the lower level of the courtyard is the private swimming pool of the house, which has panoramic views down to the sea. Around it there is a large area that is suitable for sunbathing and a small garden. This level is connected directly with the living space and with both of the bedrooms.

The family areas of the house have large openings that let in plenty of light while they also have privacy. The living space is located a little lower than the kitchen and the dining area, between which there is an impressive internal patio.

On the lower ground floor there is a large central hall that can house a library or office space.

The last bedroom occupies the entire basement and has its own bathroom, walk-in closet and exit to the pool.
