Description

A beautifully preserved stone house in the traditional village of Gavalochori, a rare opportunity to own an authentic piece of Cretan history and transform it into your personal retreat. This property perfectly combines timeless charm with the potential for modern comfort, making it ideal as either a holiday escape or a year-round residence.

Originally built around 1850, the home has been carefully renovated since 2006. Major works, including the roof, windows, electrical installation, and mezzanine floors, have already been completed. With its solid structure and completed essentials, it provides the perfect foundation to finish the interiors according to your own taste and lifestyle.

On the ground floor, an inviting entrance leads into the cozy kitchen, from which you access the bedroom and bathroom with shower and WC. A separate entrance opens to a practical storage room that includes a washing machine and water heater.

The upper floor features a spacious bedroom and an additional smaller room, ideal as an office or guest bedroom. The highlight is the charming covered roof terrace, offering picturesque views over the village rooftops and the distant mountains, the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the Cretan atmosphere.

This traditional stone home in the very heart of Gavalochori captures the true essence of Crete, authenticity, warmth, and a strong sense of place. With much of the essential renovation work already completed, it offers both charm and opportunity for personal creativity.

About the Area:

Gavalochori is one of the most picturesque villages in the Apokoronas region, known for its historic architecture, narrow alleys, and welcoming atmosphere. Surrounded by olive groves and close to the sandy beaches of Almyrida and Kalyves, it offers a perfect balance between peaceful village life and easy access to the coast and nearby Chania.
