Property description
This luxury 3 story house (395,11m2 ) perched on a hill above the vibrant towns of Atsipopoulo and Prines boasts a rare unobstructed 360-degree view today and for the foreseeable future. The large balconies provide views to the blue Mediterranean Sea and the Venetian castle of the city of Rethymno to the north, and the distant airport of Chania and natural harbor of Suda Bay to the northwest. The tranquil sun rises in the east over gentle hills covered in oak forests, olive groves and pastureland, and for only a few weeks in summer, the sun rises out of the sea. To the west, the tops of the White Mountains, at an elevation of 2500m, are blanketed in heavy snow from spring into early summer and to the south, during the winter months, Mount Kedros is covered with snow.The city of Rethymno is a 10 minute drive and the long sandy beaches of the northern side of Crete are only a 20-minute drive away, while the local towns of Prines and Atsipopoulo are 5 minutes away.
The 4,100m2 plot includes a vineyard of Cabernet Sauvignon grapes and Cretan variety grapes (Kotsifali and Romeiko) perfect for wine making as well as rose and green table grape varieties. The meticulously maintained grounds are also home to a small koi pond, an olive grove of 26 mature trees and various nut and fruit trees including apples, plums, quinces, mulberries, carobs, Seville oranges, lemons, almonds, small purple figs and one large hundred-year-old green fig tree.
This unique castle on the hill stands 350 meters above sea level allowing for postcard perfect views. All three floors have large windows and glass balcony doors allowing the interior to be flooded with natural light throughout the day. Each floor has its own separate entrance. The living spaces and balconies have classic Greek gray-veined marble floors with white marble detailing, while the bathrooms are artfully designed with neutral toned Italian ceramic tiles. The top two floors have air conditioning/heating pumps although air conditioning is rarely necessary.
Adjacent to the villa is a 1,500 m2 plot to the south that can be utilized as an extension of the olive grove and vineyard or could be transformed into a source of entertainment in the form of tennis or basketball courts.
