LITHOS PROPERTIES FOR SALE & MANAGEMENT SERVICES
DESCRIPTION
This charming rural residence, initially built in 1946 and renovated in 2020, bears a distinct Venetian architectural influence, capturing the essence of island life. Nestled on the outskirts of Gaios village, and embraced by the tranquil embrace of olive groves, it offers captivating vistas of the southern part of the island. The property features a graceful two-tier structure, originally constructed with meticulous attention to detail to embrace the simplicity of island living.
Recent refurbishments have introduced modern comforts, including a well-appointed bathroom, a standard electrical grid, and a municipality water supply. These renovations were thoughtfully overseen by an architect who employed natural, locally sourced, and eco-friendly materials, while upholding traditional construction methods and minimizing environmental impact. The character of the property's heritage has been carefully preserved, with limestone-coated walls and meticulously restored original wood flooring and ceilings.
Significant emphasis has been placed on sustainable water management, exemplified by a rainwater reservoir carved into the stone, and a wastewater treatment system that recycles water for irrigation purposes. The surrounding garden, encircled by dry stone walls, imparts an air of serenity with its native flora and an assortment of fruit-bearing trees, including centurian olive trees, pomegranates, vines, lemon, and orange trees. A dedicated vegetable garden beckons green-thumbed enthusiasts to cultivate their own olive oil.
In the summertime, the outdoor kitchen and shower enhance the property's allure, transforming the garden into an inviting extension of the living space. Furthermore, there exists the possibility to apply for a building permit to expand the house, as the property falls within the urban planning zone. The title deed has been recently renewed upon acquisition, and the house is equipped with new power grid and internet connections, complete with active subscriptions. It is being offered for sale with all its furnishings and appliances, making it turnkey and ready for immediate occupancy.
