Two Bedroom Holiday House For Sale 1.3 Kilometers Skala Polichnitou.

Details

A delightful two bedroom property for sale located in the area known as Ara, a short distance away from the pleasant fishing port of Skala Polichnitou. The setting is ideal for a vacation house for those who love nature and desire a private location. It is approached using a well defined track that is approximately 150 meters long, off a hard surfaced road that runs from Ara to Skala Polichnitou.

This is an interesting opportunity to buy a charming property with its own small olive grove, located in a tranquil setting not far from the sea. The main part of the house is in need of some renovation and creative re-design work to unify the internal living space. However, a modest amount of work could create a spectacular holiday home.

Within the original part of the main part of house there are two separate parts that consist of an old stone built cottage and a brick built extension. The older part of the house is currently used as the bedroom area. It is a simple design with a short hallway that offers access to two bedrooms that are located on each side of the hall. The extension has been built next to the bedroom area, and this houses the kitchen and bathroom. In addition, there is a separate building next to the main house that used to serve as a kitchen/bathroom utility room and it would be feasible to convert this into a guest room.  Furthermore, the bedroom area is fronted by a large veranda that has been partially converted into an internal living area by using thermally insulated roof and wall panels. This offers a means of access to the kitchen and bathroom which are situated on a lower level down a flight of five steps.

The grounds, on which the house sits are fully fenced and have been well laid out forming a garden area with an olive grove that supports 18 fruiting trees. There is ample hard parking space that is situated within the grounds behind a wide gate that offers access to the property. Nature abounds within the neighboring fields and olive groves that make up the surrounding countryside. Furthermore the pleasant ambience of the grounds have been enhanced by several decorative features such as outdoor built oven, that utilizes olive tree trimmings that are gathered after the trees have been pruned. In addition, there is a brick built barbeque/grill, and a natural water well with a number of antique earthen-ware storage jars that have been set around the garden. The natural beauty of the area is best observed from the flat roof of the lower part of the main house. This is accessed by a spiral staircase that leads up to a tiled viewing area that has been edged with balcony rails for safety.

The floors have been tiled with ceramic throughout the house, and the window frames, shutters and doors are a blend of traditional woodwork and iron, with some aluminium fabricated units. With the exception of some air conditioning, the property has no central heating. Hot water is by a traditional wood burning boiler that is supplemented by an overhead storage tank.
