This plot of building land is very near the small fishing village of Plaka, Elounda.

The area is one of the most popular areas in Greece partly due to the best seller "The Island" by Victoria Hislop and most importantly due to its unique beauty and character.

The land is 5338 sq. meters in size and it is possible to build a house or houses of up to 227 sq. meters plus basement as well as swimming pool(s), terraces, garden areas, parking spaces etc.

There is good road access and electricity, water and phone lines with broadband internet are right next to the plot.

Elounda is only a 5 minute drive from Plaka.
The town of Agios Nikolaos, which is the capital of the area, is about a 15 minute drive from the plot.

The International airport of Heraklion is about 1 hours drive from here.

Agios Nikolaos is the capital of the county Lasithi and is located at the Mirabello Bay, north-east Crete, only 45 mins away from the international airport of Heraklion.

Geographically the town is well protected from strong winds allowing sea sports and swimming nearly all year round.

Although Agios Nikolaos has a population of less than 20,000 it has several banks, supermarkets, shops of every kind, doctors, a modern hospital of high standard, public swimming pool and tennis courts, yacht marina, harbour, cinema, theatre, gyms, a 9-hole golf course, schools ranging from nurseries to 6-level high school and generally all the amenities you would expect to find in a modern European town.

The microclimate is one of the best in Greece and the moderate temperatures rarely exceed 30c in summer or fall below 15c in wintertime. This wonderful dry climate together with the natural beauty of the area has attracted most of the high class hotels of Greece to operate here.
