Description
***An offer has been accepted for this property and the contract is pending***
This delightful rural property is offered for sale. It is located in a small, friendly hamlet less than 1km from the traditional village of Nippos. The house is set on land of 2,000sqm which has a gated entrance to the front of the plot and fencing & old stone walls on the other 3 sides.
The house is a spacious 106sqm and benefits from stunning scenery – the peaks of the White Mountains stretching as far as the eye can see to the rear and side of the house, leading to the sea views towards Georgiopolis and Rethymno.
The 2 bedroom property was completed relatively recently and comprises:
Ground floor: Part glazed aluminium front door leading to the entrance hallway. To the left is a shower room with understair storage. From this area continue into the spacious living room.
Living room: The room is large, light and airy. It has 2 sets of half glazed doors leading to the generous covered veranda which features white stone columns and arches creating a wonderful outside living room and spectacular framed views. The effective wood-burning stove is placed centrally to heat the house. All the central heating pipe-work is in place, so with the addition of radiators and a boiler, the house could easily be fully centrally heated.
Kitchen: The kitchen is partially separated from the living room with a classic Cretan arch and benefits from multiple modern farmhouse style floor & wall cupboards with granite work surfaces and marble splash-backs. The double aspect windows offer views of the village and across countryside towards the mountains.
First floor: An impressive marble staircase soars up in a rounded turret to the first floor. At the head of the stairs is the generous shower room which is fully tiled with pretty pale blue and white mosaic tiles and has a jet-spray shower. To each side of the shower room is a large double bedroom. Both bedrooms have an attractive vaulted wooden ceiling, ceiling fans and access to the spacious front balcony via half-glazed doors. Bedroom 1 also has a private terrace looking out across the gardens towards the mountains. The views from the front terrace are stunning – overlooking uninterrupted countryside, mountains and the Rethymno coastline.
Externally: the property is a delightful blank canvas and there is plenty of scope for a gardening enthusiast to create a magical garden. At present the wild flowers, occasional flowering shrub, bougainvillea and cascading rosemary provide perfume and colour.
Key benefits include:
Wood burning stove
Wedgewood blue security shutters, double glazed windows and front door
Security grills on windows without shutters
Kitchen appliances included
Spacious property with extra building density if required
Clearly defined boundaries
Rural location, but close to a village with taverna
Attractive property with classic features
The appeal of this house is its rural location, the quality of the building and the impressive scenery. It is a delightful property that would suit someone who wishes to participate in Cretan daily life and must viewed to be fully appreciated.
