Description
Stone House with Sea View in Kefalas. Nestled in one of the most charming villages of Apokoronas, this beautiful stone-built villa in Kefalas masterfully combines traditional Cretan architecture with the comfort and functionality of a modern home.The property offers a total living space of 131 sq.m. on a 610 sq.m. plot, enjoying uninterrupted sea views in a serene and authentic setting. It features three bedrooms — one of which is a master — and an additional bathroom with a walk-in shower.
The villa is being sold fully furnished and equipped, including brand-new air conditioning units in every bedroom, providing year-round comfort.
The main living space is open-plan, with kitchen, dining and sitting areas that showcase traditional wooden beams and stone elements, adding warmth and character throughout.
An elegant internal iron staircase leads you down to the semi-basement level, where comfort and privacy take center stage

Outdoors, youll find a 10 sq.m. storage room and a spacious garden that can easily fit a swimming pool. Additionally, adding a pool would elevate both the leisure lifestyle and the property’s overall investment potential.
Built in 2005, the property sits within the village boundaries, blending convenience with authentic Cretan charm at every step.

Stone House with Sea View in Kefalas. Location information:
Kefalas is a traditional village located in the Apokoronas area, on the north side of Crete. It sits between Georgioupolis and Chania, forming a peaceful triangle away from the main highway.
Unlike the more developed Akrotiri peninsula, Apokoronas remains green, serene, and authentic, filled with olive groves, woodlands, and small farms. Nearby beaches like Almyrida, Kalives, and the long sandy stretch of Georgioupolis add to its charm.
"Kefalas gained its historical identity when Byzantine settlers established it around 1175 A.D. under Emperor Michalis Komnenos. Many historical buildings remain—some lovingly restored, others standing as quiet ruins from the Venetian and Ottoman periods.
Between 1669 and 1898, the village was under Ottoman rule, which left a lasting mark on its character and architecture. Despite being one of the larger villages in the area, Kefalas feels quiet, friendly, and deeply rooted in tradition.
There are charming squares, tall old trees, a stone windmill, and two tavernas—one of which proudly serves Illy coffee. The village has two supermarkets: one sells organics, the other—run by a kind English woman—once offered us wine!
Locals smile and wave as you pass old stone homes and a few well-designed new ones. Most impressively, Kefalas contains around 30 churches—more than weve seen in any other Cretan village.
During Ottoman times, residents protected their land by building churches, knowing the authorities couldn’t seize church-owned property. These sacred structures give Kefalas its distinct spiritual character and remarkable architectural depth.
Access is easy: from Georgioupolis, turn left just before the village square, then follow signs for Vamos and Kefalas uphill. Alternatively, approach from Vamos, where clearly marked signs guide you through the peaceful countryside to the village.
