The property definitely has potential for development and is ideal if you want to add your personal taste to an impressive final result. It is a two-level building of 58 m² and 44 m², respectively. The ground floor is old stone and dates back to 1820. The upper floor was added in 1982 while the entire building took its current form in 2003. Today, it hosts two completely independent apartments, which take advantage of the slope of the natural terrain and are ground floor while the plot in front of them is free in case you want to add a themed garden, courtyards or anything else according to your needs.

An important advantage of the property is its location, as it is situated right in front of the historic Moni Chrisoskalitissas, to which it has the best possible views. The plot is buildable with up to 400 m² for main residential use or even more for professional purposes. The existing building is on the edge of the village and is located at the southern end of the plot and therefore there is plenty of space to the north if you want to construct anything else. All the surrounding properties belong to the monastery, which ensures that the character of the area will not be spoiled by its rapid growth. Each apartment includes an open-plan living area, kitchen, bathroom and a bedroom. You can make improvements to both of them but they are immediately habitable and can even be rented out in order to have a significant income.

The picturesque region is part of the European Natura 2000 network of nature protection areas. It is a popular destination due to the nearby beach of Elafonisi while the location of the property makes it ideal not only as a residence but also for any tourist or other professional use. In the village of Chrysoskalitissa, there are supermarkets and cafes that are open all year round. Within a short distance, you will also find several restaurants that are open during the tourist season. The city of Chania is one hour and 30 minutes' drive and the airport one hour and 40 minutes.
