€ 120,000

Mun. unit of Neapoli, Agios Nikolaos, Lasithi, Crete

• Bedrooms: 3
• Bathrooms: 2

The property is in a village of the municipality Agios Nikolaos in the prefecture of Lasithi, north of Agios Nikolaos and between Elounda and Neapoli. It is a building, which was constructed in 2010 on the site of an old stone farmhouse. Currently, the appearance of the building is mediocre as regular maintenance and repairs are required but it is immediately habitable and its recent construction makes it a very good, well-priced choice if you are looking for something in the area.

The plot is rectangular with a large frontage and includes the building with a small courtyard before the main entrance as well as a section, which is not landscaped and can be used for parking, a garden or even a swimming pool. The house area and the free part have different entrances from metal doors while the remaining frontage has a stone wall. The building is arranged over two levels that are connected internally. On the ground floor we find an L-shaped, open-plan dining, living and kitchen area. In the dining area there is a fireplace with carved marble cladding, which if you maintain it you will have an impressive element as a central feature of the house. The ground floor includes one of the bedrooms and a bathroom while upstairs there are a second bathroom and two bedrooms. The floor has a good-sized southwest balcony that has views over the houses of the village and up to the mountain ranges of the prefecture in the distance.

The village has about 80 permanent residents, most of whom are engaged in agriculture and livestock farming while there is also a traditional cafe. The area is crossed by one of the main roads if you go from Heraklion to the famous Spinalonga while the village is about 5 km from the central road and therefore you avoid the summer tourist traffic. The wider area is full of scattered small villages that are worth exploring while there are also many taverns with excellent local cuisine. The center of Agios Nikolaos is about 30 minutes' drive away and the new airport of Heraklion will be about 1 hour's drive away.
