Full Description
Villa Erato is a unique, semi-detached house being marketed separately from the other semi-detached house with which it shares the plot of land. The two houses are priced the same and have almost identical features and amenities, although there are design differences giving each its own distinctive character.
The property is composed of 2 independent luxury villas, Villa Thalia and Villa Erato. They are being sold separately, and each has its own private pool and outdoor living space, set amongst the olive groves in a quiet, secluded area just outside the traditional village of Ayia, west of Chania. Both villas have 2 double bedrooms and 3 beautifully designed and fitted bathrooms. As an added feature, there is also a third, shared pool with spacious terrace and sun loungers. The property is tastefully landscaped to fit in with the surrounding natural beauty of the countryside. Set in a large expanse of lush farmland, it features a mature biological garden with fruit trees, flowers and aromatic herbs. Balconies on both villas look out onto sweeping, panoramic views of the Cretan landscape and mountains.
Interior: Both villas are situated on two floors with an open-plan living and dining area and kitchen on the main floor. The living rooms have sliding doors with beautiful views opening to spacious outdoor areas. They also are equipped with fireplaces integrated nicely into the modern design of the house, making these homes perfect for year-round living. The kitchens are compact, well-designed spaces with all modern amenities, set apart from the living/dining area at the end of the large open space.
The bedrooms are all well-designed with high-quality furnishings and sliding doors to either balconies or ground floor patios. The ensuite bathrooms are beautifully appointed with modern sinks and vanity units, as well as large walk-in rain showers.
Exterior: The villas are creatively joined at the rear, and each has a large outdoor lawn with private pool and dining area. There is also a shared pool with a spacious terrace for sun loungers and umbrellas. Set on a slight hill, the landscape overlooks a vast area of olive groves and natural Cretan beauty. There is also a long driveway with ample parking for several cars.
Location: The villas are located less than 1km from the center of the traditional village of Ayia, west of the main city of Chania, which is 10km away. Ayia Lake, an internationally protected ecological habitat, is just 1.5km, the Limnopoulos Water Park is less than 4km, and the popular Golden Beach on the north coast is 7km, as is the truly spectacular Botanical Park of Chania. The main airport in Chania is 25km away.
