This beautiful house is located on a 4,600 square metre plot on the outskirts of a small village in the Apokoronas area of Crete. This area, which is well known for it's pretty villages and attractive countryside, is situated approximately 20 kms East of Chania, this being the second largest city on the island. As the owner was a chef, the kitchen is finished to a very high standard and includes an Italian Ilve range cooker and Miele appliances. There is also a walk-in pantry and a laundry room leading off from the kitchen. From the dining area are French doors leading to a large terrace. Also from the dining area are double doors leading to a spacious living room with an open fireplace. Both the dining and living rooms have wooden ceiling beams which give a very traditional feeling. French doors lead from the living room to the patio terrace, garden area and a completely private 40 square metre pool with spectacular views of the mountains. Also on the ground floor is a large bedroom with a walk-in closet and a separate very good sized shower room. On the first floor are two spacious king size bedrooms and a bathroom. One of these bedrooms has a walk-in closet and access to a large terrace. Currently the second bedroom, with triple aspect windows and it's own balcony, is being used as a study. The house has been constructed to a very high standard throughout and has superb unobstructed views of the White Mountains. The property has been landscaped around the house and pool inkeeping with the natural character of the land. The owners have also planted numerous trees including olives, fruit trees and cypress. There is also a separate covered parking space and workshop adjacent to the house. The property has a double solar panel for hot water, three water tanks (as a reserve supply), oil fired central heating with separate thermostatic controls for the 2 floors, propane gas for the range cooker, three-phase electricity and boundary walls.
About: Chanion, Crete, GreecePer square mile, Crete must be one of the most "loaded" places in the world -- loaded, that is, in the diversity of its history, archaeological sites, natural attractions, tourist amenities, and just plain surprises. In a world where more and more travelers have "been there, done that," Crete remains an endlessly fascinating and satisfying destination. Few travelers need to be sold on the glories of the Minoan culture of Crete. But Crete also offers cities layered with 4,000 years of continuous inhabitation, including the vibrant heritage of centuries-old Orthodox Christianity and the distinctive imprint left by almost 700 years of Venetian and Turkish rule. Not to mention endless beaches, magnificent mountains, intriguing caves, resonant gorges, and countless villages and sites that provide unexpected and unforgettable experiences. An elaborate service industry has developed to please the many thousands of foreigners who visit Crete each year. Facilities now exist to suit everyone's taste, ranging from luxury resorts to guest rooms in villages that have hardly changed over several centuries. You can spend a delightful day in a remote mountain town where you're treated to fresh goat cheese and olives, then be back at your hotel within an hour, enjoying a cool drink on the beach. |
