Description

Nestled in the scenic and historic town of Rethymnon, Crete, this 3-bedroom house is a blend of traditional aesthetics with the convenience of modern amenities. For a price of 250,000 euros, this house offers a classic living experience within proximity to the immersive local culture, stunning seaside, and rugged mountain views that define the region.

The house covers an area of 198 square meters spreading over two levels, each meticulously designed to provide a comfortable and stylish living space. The ground floor is characterized by a self-contained studio, which comes complete with a fully equipped kitchen that hosts an expandable wooden dining table. Adjacent to it, you will find a generously sized living room adorned with two large bed-sofas, a 40-inch TV, and a welcoming fireplace—ideal for cozy evenings. This floor also includes a large bathroom equipped with modern facilities such as a washing machine and a glass shower.

As you ascend the outer staircase to the first floor, you arrive at the main living quarters accessible through a charming wooden gate on a balcony. This area opens to another well-equipped kitchen and living room. Here, the ambiance is enlivened by natural light streaming through five large windows, offering soothing mountain and garden views. The outdoor balcony provides a perfect perch to gaze over the sea, making it a serene spot for breakfast or afternoon coffee.

The sleeping arrangements include a master bedroom with a queen-size bed, ample wardrobe space, and direct access to the main balcony where one can enjoy majestic sea views. The adjoining children’s room — with two single (twin) beds, also links directly to this balcony, offering a practical setup for a family.

Living in Rethymnon allows one to experience life in a lively historical setting combined with the beauty of Greek island life. The town itself is famous for its Venetian architecture, vibrant local market, and the fortress that towers over the town center—which hosts numerous cultural events throughout the year. The local area is brimming with opportunities for exploration, from ancient ruins to hiking trails in the surrounding mountains and relaxed beach outings.

The property also includes ample parking space with electronic gate access, and a multi-functional garage that doubles as a storage area and potential wine cellar. The garden area, spanning 200 square meters, is a lush retreat perfect for leisurely days or evening gatherings under the stars. It comes fitted with an array of exotic plants and provides adequate privacy with a perimeter of large trees.

In terms of amenities, notable features include:
- Central autonomous heating and five air-conditioning units.
- Fully equipped kitchens on both levels.
- Multiple large closets for generous storage.
- Automated entry gate and secure parking for up to three vehicles.
- Spacious garden ideal for outdoor entertaining.

Climate in Crete is typically Mediterranean; hot and sunny for the most part of the year, making it an ideal locale for those who favor warmer climates. Winters are mild, allowing for year-round enjoyment of outdoor activities and the breathtaking natural setting.

This house, while in good condition, could be perceived as a fixer-upper due to its traditional structure and the potential modern updates that new homeowners might consider. It provides a solid foundation for those looking to imprint their personal style and transform this property into a uniquely tailored home.

For overseas buyers and expats, investing in this property means engaging deeply with the Cretan lifestyle—marked by its leisurely pace, warm community, and the blend of traditional charm with modern-day conveniences. It offers a distinctive opportunity to experience living in one of Greece’s celebrated locales, with everything you need to feel right at home.
