Ref: PAG1 450,000 euros
A beautiful 2 bedroom house set in 6,000 sq. m.
Spectacular location with panoramic views.
This is a very special house in a fantastic location. You will not find another one the same a few yards or miles away!
The 6,000 square metre (fenced) plot affords it a considerable level of privacy. The land is accessed through large wrought iron gates on the lower level of the plot. A long driveway leads up to the house, which is situated at almost the highest level of the land.
The views are truly spectacular; right over the south of the island and across to the sea on both sides.
The imposing front door, with covered porch, leads into the living room.
This room is 7.3m x 6m including the stairwell and kitchen.
It has a Sporades style ceiling and tiled floor. There are windows to front, side and rear together with doors leading to the front terrace.
All windows and shutters in this house are of high quality with built in “pull down” fly screens. There is a fireplace with a wood burning stove.
At present this room is divided into four “spaces”; a sitting area around the fireplace and adjacent to the terrace doors, a resting area with daybed, a dining area and the kitchen. There is a burglar alarm.
The kitchen is to the front of the house and is fitted with wooden units. The sink unit overlooks the terrace and the views. The electric cooker has an extractor hood and there is a fridge.
Dividers separate the kitchen from the living area.
The current owner has used a cupboard to screen the stairs. The photograph to the left shows the kitchen and dining area as seen from the stairs.
The guest bedroom/study (2.9 x 2.8m) is opposite the stairs to the front of the house with windows to front and side.
(Below right and left).
The bathroom (2.45 x 2.33m) is to the rear, opposite the guest bedroom. This is a sumptuous room, with free standing Victorian style bath and high quality sanitary units. Floor and ceiling are tiled and finished with pine dado rail and large mirror.
The wooden stairs lead up to the main bedroom, (3.75 x 3.3m. max) again with Sporades style ceiling. There are windows to three sides and doors to the front, first floor balcony.
The master bedroom has an en-suite shower room (2 x 1.6m plus shower cubicle) which is fitted to the same standard and style as the bathroom and has a window to the side. There is a large enclosed shower cubicle and also a washing machine.
Doors from the bedroom lead to the upper balcony (4.5 x 2.5m. max) which has panoramic 180 degree sea views. The balcony has a plaka floor and a covered pergola. Stairs lead down to the garden.
The ground floor terrace is large; about 10 x 3m. and has a covered pergola. There are spectacular panoramic views of the island and the sea to both east and west of the island. This must be one of very few properties on the island which benefit from having superb views of both sunrise and sunset.
The terrace floor is plaka and decorated with an assortment of pots and urns with plants and flowers. The terrace is raised and plaka steps lead down to the garden.
The views from this property really have to be seen to be believed! There is a scarcity of land on the island, now, and to find a plot in such a location is getting almost an impossibility. For this reason, a piece of this size, on the market today would invariably be sold as two plots.
This has to be one of the best inland plots on the island and with a high quality property, together with ample space for expansion if required. Money cannot buy a building plot like this, now on Alonissos.
This is the owner’s description of her beautiful property on Alonissos:
Would you like to own a mountain side with 68 olive trees and almond trees on a Greek island, overlooking 180° of glistening Aegean sea and old, silvery shimmering olive trees. It's an idyllic, unique location. Times stand still when shepherds lead their herds of goats and sheep up the mountain paths – interrupting for an instant the blissful rural silence. Rare birds are nesting in the pine trees and the garden is filled with healing herbs. The perfect home for a retreat. A writer who will enjoy uninterrupted calmness to finish the latest novel, a family with children that will enjoy the 5 minute ride to one of the many different beaches; or the perfect setting for a honeymoon sunset.
The property is fenced in and also protected by trees and bushes. An illuminated driveway leads up to the house after passing through an old style, secure iron gate.
