Luxury Villa in the South of Crete

Opposite the breakfast bar is a toilet. These define the space to lead to the living room. There are double size floor to ceiling patio doors which lead to the huge balcony 11mx3m. The light, bright and airy feel of the house from the large windows really give a feeling of bringing the outside in. The living area also benefits from a compact and efficient, imported British wood burning stove made by Charnwood. The views from this area are amazing to all of the natural green areas and small villages around, the olive and orange groves and directly to the White Mountains.

Outside is a spiral staircase which leads to the huge roof terrace, from where the panoramic views are magnificent. There is lighting already here too.

The property is fenced all around and the garden has been lovingly landscaped, and fitted with irrigation. An electric wrought iron gate protects the entry and an attractive stone wall completes this area. There is a huge vegetable patch, citrus trees, a 9x6m fenced pen for dogs and even a chicken house. From over a 100 olive trees on the plot you can yield between 600-800 kilos of extra virgin, excellent grade olive oil.

The house has solar panel and electric back-up immersion heater. It is pre-wired for infrared heating panels and also pre-wired underground for an intercom from the wall at the front gate to inside next to the front door.

Air conditioning is available in the living and master rooms and ready connections for the two other bedrooms and dining. Other features are: satellite dish, ceiling fans in the living room and master bedroom, and beech wood laminate floors throughout, apart from the tiled bathrooms.

The land of 7.260m² still has more square metres allowance to build, and it is needless to say that there is ample room for a pool to be installed.

The rural walks around the area are plenty and tranquil, to the river and beyond. The main road of the village offers regular bus services. The location is ideal for peace and quiet, with amenities close by when needed.

Crete Home for sale Location

Situated in the picturesque village of Nio Chorio enjoying a soothing, rural green outlook with fantastic views of the majestic mountain range "Lefka Ori" to soak up daily. Neo Horio lies 22 km far from the town of Chania in a hill viewing a lush valley of olive and orange groves. The village offers a unique traditional character combined with "kafeneia" (coffee shops) for a Greek coffee or a cold gazoza (the local Cretan fizzy drink) and the best "souvlaki" in Crete!

From the top of Neo Horio northwards over the valley, the azure waters of the Mediterranean Sea are glimmering under the glory of the sun. There stands the coastal village of Kalyves. Another village, Armeni, is nested in the valley between Kalyves and Neo Horio. Armeni and Kalives are only a small drive away from Neo Horio.

Kalives is now a popular tourist resort that has preserved its Cretan traditional character. In Kalyves there is a Venetian fort, a watermill of the Venetian Era as well as a number of Minoan Era tombs. Armeni village is located inland from Kalives on the north coast of the island, at the mouth of Souda Bay. This mainly agricultural village is shaded by platania trees and the Kiliaris River. The church of "Agios Nikolaos" (Saint Nikolaos) is of imposing architecture giving an air of wealth to the village.
