Georgioupoli, Chania, Crete, Greece

The property is in an extremely picturesque village of the municipal unit Georgioupolis in the municipality Apokoronas, in the inland about 4 km south of the beautiful beach of the area as well as on a hillside from where the views are panoramic and reach the sea. It is an old stone building, which has been beautifully renovated with respect to its strong traditional character. During the renovation, special emphasis was given to the sizes in each use while materials and colors that create a warm atmosphere in each space have been selected.

The plot is fenced and the house is located close to the frontage so that there is a large free space at the back. Access is from a small door for the visitors or from a metal gate, which opens onto a paved courtyard where, among other things, you can park your vehicles. Due to the slope of the natural ground the upper floor is at the level of the road, from where you have additional access directly from a terrace on the frontage of the house. The garden of the house has been abandoned and needs care but includes many plants and mature trees that provide the basis for a beautiful result. There is, of course, ample space in case you want to add a swimming pool as well as remaining buildable area that allows you to extend the existing house or even add a second completely independent one at the back. The maximum allowed buildable area is up to 400 m² for main residential areas.
