Rodopos, Chania, Crete, Greece

The residence is in a quiet village of the municipality Platanias, at Cape Rodopos about 10 minutes northwest of the small town of Kolymvari. The village is surrounded by hills with wild vegetation and a large part of the area is protected by the Natura 2000 network. The area is also suitable for cycling or walking in the nature. The sale is for two properties. In one, the house is located on a plot of 482 m² while at the back there is a second plot of 498 m². They are separated by a path. A path also reaches the residence while there is a road, where you can park your vehicle at a distance of about 50 m.

The house is old stone and has been completely renovated in 2005. Since then it has been abandoned, so further maintenance work is now required in order to become functional. In any case, it has no obvious structural problems. It can very easily, gradually, partially or completely, be renovated and you may have an excellent result. The building is located on the western edge of its plot so that on its frontage there is ample space for a garden, courtyard or even a swimming pool. The house is surrounded by two auxiliary spaces so that a "U" is formed with good privacy. If you repair the entire building, you will have 147 m² with up to 4 comfortable bedrooms and comfortable family spaces.

The village has mostly permanent residents and has largely retained its original traditional character. A dirt road starts from the village, which after 45 minutes ends at the beautiful beach of Menies, which is suitable for free camping and remains relatively quiet even at the peak of the tourist season. In nearby Kolymbari, you will find a bank, big supermarkets, restaurants and several shops that are open all year round. In Kolymbari there is also a long, pebbly beach with crystal blue waters. The city and the airport of Chania are about 35 and 50 minutes, respectively.
