Located outside the settlement boundaries of Skopi, the property enjoys a quiet rural environment while remaining approximately 604 metres from the village and around 4.15km from the sea. This balance between privacy and accessibility is one of its strongest characteristics, offering the feeling of a secluded Cretan estate without being isolated from local life and the wider Sitia region.
Access is indicated via an agricultural road, while an existing topographical survey prepared in the EGSA ’87 coordinate system provides detailed technical documentation of the land.
According to the engineer’s declaration included in the 2017 topographical survey, the property met the applicable minimum plot requirements at that time and was considered potentially buildable, with buildability subject to verification by the Lasithi Forestry Directorate. The survey also records that no high-voltage electricity transmission lines or natural gas pipeline cross the property and that no stream passes through the land or within 20 metres of its boundaries.
Indicative residential planning parameters stated in the same survey include maximum coverage of 10%, construction of up to two floors and minimum setbacks of 15 metres from the property boundaries. As planning legislation may have changed since the survey was prepared, all development possibilities should be reconfirmed by a qualified engineer before any investment or construction decision.
With almost 70,000sqm of land, a productive olive grove, proximity to both Skopi and the coastline, and the privacy offered by such a substantial estate, this property represents an interesting opportunity for buyers looking for land for sale in Sitia with genuine scale and multiple possible uses. It could be particularly suitable for a private country estate, agricultural investment, low-density luxury residential concept, agrotourism development or hospitality-related project, subject to current planning and licensing requirements.
