Description
Located in a quiet area on the outskirts of Gavalahori, this immaculately maintained 2 bedroom villa is offered for sale. Within easy walking distance of the mini market, cafes and tavernas located in the village centre makes this a perfect location for either a relaxing holiday home or for permanent living.
Built to a good standard around 2003, the house comprises:
Entrance porch and courtyard: Whilst the main front door leads to the main living area, the most used access point is from the driveway & off-road parking area through a shaded porch and into the kitchen. The courtyard to the side of the house is a much used outside living room with gazebo, BBQ and covered dining area with pull-down blinds. From here a door leads into the kitchen.
Kitchen: A recently redesigned kitchen which is now completely separate from the living room. With its light oak coloured floor & wall units and with contrasting work surfaces, the additional cupboards and amended layout now make this a very workable room. An arch leads to the living room
Living room: A light & spacious room with arched fully glazed doors leading to a charming winter lounge. The wooden open tread staircase is a feature of the room which enhances the traditional characteristics of the property. The part glazed front door is located under the staircase.
Shower room: The ground floor shower room fully tiled in sparkling white is located to the right of the front door.
Winter/Sun lounge: To the front of the living room is an area that is used both summer and winter. The large double glazed windows & patio doors protect the living room from the summer heat and provide plenty of light during the occasional grey winter days we can experience in Crete. The patio doors lead directly out to the pool terraces.
Staircase: leading to the upper floor hallway
Bathroom: Located at the top of the stairs is a fully tiled in soft pastel tones the bathroom with full size bathtub, WC, hand-basin and accessories. A cupboard above the bathroom door opens to provide storage.
Bedroom 1: Main bedroom is to the front of the house which looks out through the extended covered veranda across the pool towards the mountains. This is a charming room with extra high wooden clad vaulted ceilings. A floor to ceiling wardrobe provides plenty of storage and additional storage is provided by the dressing table unit.
Extended veranda: Double glazed patio doors lead to the covered veranda which is currently in use as a workshop. Large glazed panels ensure this room is always flooded with light.
Bedroom 2: This room is to the rear of the house and looks down onto the rear courtyard. Again fitted with floor to ceiling wardrobes, open vaulted ceiling and ceiling fan.
External: To the rear of the house is a paved completely enclosed courtyard with rotary line and 9sqm utility buildings including wood store and general storage areas.
As previously mentioned to the side of the house is a covered porch-way with pull-down blinds. Again this area is completely enclosed and paved. This is also the location of the BBQ and is accompanied by a very comfortable outside dining gazebo.
Pool: An oval pool is located immediately in front of the house and is surrounded by mature flowering shrubs ensuring privacy. The terraces are paved and the area fully landscaped for easy maintenance.
General: The house is situated towards the rear of a 480sqm fully enclosed plot with stone boundary walls and gated entry points. Mature planting gives a great sense of privacy to the house and leisure areas. An off-road parking space is large enough for several cars. An additional plot of land of 460sqm was purchased by the owners and is currently included in the selling price. This is directly adjacent to the driveway and could become an extension to the garden or used for building additional living space or garage.
Additional benefits include:
Efficent wood burning stove
3,000lt water storage. Agricultural & town water
Telephone line with broadband facility
This is an attractive house, providing all that is required for permanent all year round living and a highly desirable location. Well worth viewing.
Please note that the owners are flexible regarding the additional land. If just the house and original land of 480sqm is required, the price is 195,000 euros.
