Village Property with Renovation Potential and Additional Building Allowance in Prime Location
Description
An excellent renovation opportunity within walking distance of the centre of the village, offering existing buildings, additional build potential, and direct road access. With sea views from the mezzanine level and flexible development possibilities, this property is ideal for creating a unique home or investment project in Crete.
Situated in a convenient village location just a short walk from the centre and all local amenities, this property offers a rare opportunity for buyers looking to undertake a full renovation project while benefiting from additional building potential.
The plot measures approximately 551.89m² and benefits from a total building allowance of 200m², providing excellent flexibility for redevelopment or extension. Existing structures range between approximately 88m² and 137m², leaving an estimated remaining build potential of around 60–115m² depending on the final design and planning approach. The property also benefits from direct road access and clear legal division, making the development process more straightforward.
The main house currently consists of two large rooms full of traditional character and potential. The larger of the two features a mezzanine level, currently used as a sleeping area, which also enjoys a small sea view—an attractive feature that could be enhanced further during renovation.
Connected to the main building is an additional smaller structure currently used as the shower room and WC, adding further practicality to the existing layout and offering multiple renovation possibilities.
In addition to the main house, the property also includes a separate structure currently in ruin condition, creating further opportunities for guest accommodation, studio space, storage, or expansion subject to renovation plans.
The entire property requires full renovation, giving the new owner complete freedom to redesign and modernise according to their own vision while preserving the authentic village atmosphere. The generous plot size also creates opportunities for landscaped gardens, outdoor living areas, or additional structures.
Its location is a major advantage, with tavernas, cafes, shops, and all village amenities accessible on foot, making the property suitable for year-round living, a holiday home, or a rental investment project.
Properties with this combination of existing structures, additional building allowance, village access, and renovation potential are becoming increasingly difficult to find in sought-after areas of Crete.
