Description

Situated in a traditional village below the village church, close to Paramonas Beach and Agios Gordios, this unique property dates back to 1900 and has retained many of the authentic features from its past - not only within the property, but also within its grounds.

The three edifices, with stone walls and high-ceilinged, are:
- The two-floor main house (245 sq. m.), comprising five bright and airy rooms with a view of the garden or hills, a large kitchen, three bathrooms, and two large attics;
- A building (230 sq. m.) on two floors, with - on the ground level - a stone olive-press, bedroom, kitchen, bathroom and WC; on the first floor, an 85 sq. m. room with many windows and a view of the countryside; and a large attic;
- A smaller building (80 sq. m.), converted into two studios, each with a kitchenette area, bathroom, fireplace and large mezzanine. (Bathroom and other appurtenances are at hand, waiting to be mounted.)

All traditional structural and esthetic features have been carefully preserved.

Required repairs mainly include replacing and repainting a number of doors and windows; refreshing exterior paints; and installing central heating.

The garden, with numerous fruit trees, vines and other plants, needs attention.
