Mun. unit of Archanes, Archanes-Asterousia, Heraklion, Crete

The plot is in a very quiet spot about 3 km south from Archanes, one of the most beautiful small towns of the prefecture of Heraklion. The ground is almost level at its highest point, follows the ridge of a hill and has slope near its three sides on the west, the north and the east. The views are unobstructed and impressive from all points and extend up to the sea in the background and over the island of Dia. On the plot there is a vineyard, which covers its largest part while individual sections are separated by beautiful dry-stone walls on large terraces.

A rural road reaches the plot that is accessible by conventional vehicle with the exception of the last 50 m, which can be easily repaired. The nearby Archanes is famous for its traditional mansions, taverns and picturesque alleys, which are worth exploring. It also has a permanent population of about 4000 inhabitants as well as schools of all levels, a medical center, an archaeological museum, bakeries, big supermarkets and everything else for your daily needs. The area is of significant tourist interest so that the plot is suitable, not only for the construction of a luxury residence but also a medium-sized lodging unit of 50 to 80 beds. The center of Heraklion and the international airport of the prefecture are about 25 minutes' drive away.
