Drapanias, Crete 734 00

This just-built deluxe house is on the edge of a sought-after village in the Gulf of Kissamos which contains a mini-market, bakeries, tavernas, school and a pharmacy. It lies on the Kissamos-Chania bus route, is within walking distance (1500m) of sandy beaches that line the Gulf, and is only a 5-minute drive from Kissamos with its main shops, health centre and beaches. The beautiful and vibrant Venetian city of Chania is just 25 minutes away. Constructed in 2022-23, the house is on two levels. At the entrance to the ground floor is a large 50m2 gated and walled, tiled and shaded courtyard, with attractive planting areas and irrigation system, lighting, a large barbecue, and a compact external kitchen. The ground floor is entered through a security door which leads into a lofty cathedral-like living room and fully-equipped kitchen, with multiple windows channelling the natural light to illuminate the huge space. The ceilings throughout are of white timber supported by white-painted steel supports. A passage from the living room leads to two double bedrooms, each with wardrobe space and external door to a spacious balcony overlooking the rear garden, and a large family bathroom with sink, vanity unit, WC, shower and washing machine. Stunning steps constructed from varnished marine plywood with stainless steel and obscured glass, lead up to the first floor. The first (attic) floor comprises two double bedrooms, each with wardrobe space and wide window providing beautiful views across olive groves to the Gulf of Kissamos, and a large family bathroom with sink, vanity unit, WC and shower. All upper floors have attractive wood-effect tiles. Outside, there are side and rear gardens with planted areas and mature olive trees, parking space, and room for a pool if required. The house has been constructed to a very high standard for year-round living: tiled roof, fully insulated inside and outside, aluminium double-glazed doors / windows / screens / electric shutters, solar water heating, secure entrance door, fully-equipped kitchen and bathrooms, connections ready for air conditioning and entertainment channels, pipes laid for future central heating if required, and contents which are available by negotiation. A further 157m2 accommodation can be built on this plot, plus a pool. This property is in an ideal and sought-after location: amongst green olive groves and within walking distance of local tavernas, shops and beaches, yet with full shopping and medical facilities available in just 5 minutes. Note! The adjacent plot which is also 432m2 and builds a further 240m2, can be included for a combined price of 399, 000!
