ALONISSOS ISLAND PROPERTIES IS BASED ON THE GREEK ISLAND OF ALONISSOS. THE SALE OF PROPERTY AND LAND IS ITS SOLE ACTIVITY. ROSEMARY IS A PERMANENT RESIDENT ON THE ISLAND.

This 200 square metre property is set in a 4,000 square metre plot overlooking Tzortzi Ghialos bay, on the road to Leftos Ghialos bay.
It was completed to a very high standard in 2000, with an unusually high level of insulation, hard wood (iroko) double glazing, central heating, air conditioning and fly screens on all windows and doors.
The house is finished to a standard rarely seen on small Greek Islands with no expense spared nor detail overlooked.
It has mains electricity, water and a telephone line and has 3 X 50 cubic metre sternas (water tanks) and a grey water tank.
A whole row of filters result in water that is pure enough to drink - something I have never seen before on Alonissos!
The house has a long, private, driveway and a double garage.
This property enjoys privacy and superb views and is just a few minutes drive from the most popular beaches and their tavernas.
It is, however, only a 10 minute drive, on tarmac roads, from the harbour town of Patitiri.

Steps lead up onto a large, plaka paved open terrace. From here the front door opens into the living room with a covered terrace adjacent to the dining area. Double doors lead from the dining area to the covered terrace, which overlooks the pool and has good sea views.

This house has been designed to look like a traditional English home and is being sold fully furnished and equipped. Only the owners’ personal items will be removed. The living and dining area is terracotta tiled and measures 10.5 x 4.5 m. The living room has a fireplace with a wood burning stove. (see detail photos oat the end)

The dining area has a window to the side and double doors onto the terrace and is furnished with a rosewood table and 8 chairs, with a matching sideboard/dresser (see detail photos at the end).

A door from the living room leads into the kitchen/breakfast room with a terracotta tiled floor, windows to both sides and doors to the front. This room measures 6.7 x 3.5 m and is a light and bright room - too bright for my camera - sorry. The kitchen has a 2.5 bowl sink, a fridge, ceramic hob with extractor, separate oven and dishwasher. A good range of wood fronted units with complementary tiling completes this comprehensive kitchen.

The breakfast area has a table for four and has good sea views to the front of the house. This room also houses the attractive wood burner/ central heating boiler (see detail photos, later) which works off wood or diesel and will automatically switch from diesel to wood once the logs start to give enough heat. Believe me, for a small Greek island, this is super-special!

The utility room is accessed directly from the kitchen and measures 3.5 x 1.75 m. In addition to storage cupboards it contains a washing machine, drying cupboard with dryer, drinks fridge and freezer. A door leads to the side of the house and the garage.

Open tread wooden stairs lead up from the living room to the first floor.

All bedrooms have a traditional English flat ceiling, with high levels of insulation in the roof.

As I have a gap here I’ll use it to tell you that this property has a satellite dish and Sky TV!
