€ 195,000*

This beautiful home is located on a tranquil hillside and it is surrounded by aged cypress trees and dense vegetation. It is an old, stone-built residence with many traditional features and an original architectural character. The area is fairly quiet and the house is built just outside of a picturesque village of the municipal unit Kryonerida, in the municipality of Apokoronas, east of Chania.

The property has a large plot of land that is fenced, sloped and divided into beautifully landscaped terraces. Next to the house, there is a parking space for two cars, which you can easily expand according to your needs. The entire rear side is landscaped with flower gardens and many sunny or shaded sitting areas, perfectly suitable for relaxation. The entire garden provides complete privacy and its largest part overlooks the lush plain of the river Boutakas and the small town of Vrisses. The lowest part of the land comprises a small olive grove with mature and productive trees.

The residence is arranged over two floors, which are connected internally but are also accessed independently through the garden. The main entrance opens onto the upper floor and right before there is a spacious terrace with wonderful views. Inside, there is the spacious kitchen that has a marble counter and sink, as well as plenty of traditional-style cabinets. A corridor leads to a spacious bathroom with a bathtub as well as a bedroom, which has a fitted wardrobe and its own balcony.

A wooden staircase leads to the traditional "katoi" of the house at the lower level. Here, we find a sitting area with an exit to a covered veranda and a beautiful corner fireplace, where there is a wood stove. This level has its own bathroom with shower as well as a two-room bedroom with a large built-in wardrobe. The second area of the bedroom can be configured as a storage space, a small gym or even as a third bedroom-guestroom.

The house is a perfect example of the traditional Cretan architecture and has been lovingly restored with care and respect for its authentic style. The nearby village, which is only 500 m away from the property, has many traditional guesthouses, taverns, cafes and mini markets. Within about 10 minutes' drive, you can find the small town of Vrisses, where there are banks, restaurants, pharmacy, supermarkets and several shops. The city centre of Chania is 40 minutes' drive, Rethymnon 35 minutes and the airport of Chania about 50 minutes.
