Kokkino Chorio Apokoronas, Chania, Crete, Greece

Located in an exceptionally picturesque village in the municipality of Apokoronas, this residence sits on a hillside overlooking Souda Bay with beautiful panoramic views. It is a traditional stone house that was fully renovated some years ago, with an additional complete refurbishment carried out in 2020. Today, it is offered as an elegant, functional, and modern property.

The house stands on a 219 m² plot. A lane, which is wide enough for a car, leads to the front of the property. Directly opposite the residence, an additional 24 m² plot is included, which has been converted into a private parking area. At the front of the main plot sits a traditional hayat (covered entrance portico), historically used as a sheltered antechamber where visitors tied their animals and where the homeowners often sat to knit and socialize with passersby. This 21 m² space largely retains its original form, with part of it now used as a storage room.

The main building is arranged over two levels. The ground floor hosts a bright and comfortable main residence, while the upper level consists of two independent guest rooms-ideal for hosting friends or for tourist rental, offering the potential for significant annual income. Between the hayat and the house, a spacious stone-paved courtyard provides excellent privacy. Near the main entrance, there are flower beds and a built-in barbecue. An external staircase leads to the upper floor, where you can enjoy stunning sea views. This level offers a large sunbathing terrace and a covered veranda used as a breakfast area, enclosed with vertical awnings for year-round use.

The village has traditional taverns, cafes and a well-stocked mini-market. There are also a glass factory with handmade artifacts and a cultural association.
