Description

Hidden within the charming old lanes of Kalyves, this beautifully renovated village home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy authentic Cretan living just a few minutes on foot from the beach. With 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a large roof terrace, and a separate studio, the property combines traditional village character with comfort, flexibility, and excellent investment potential.

Set in the heart of the old village, the house is ideal for buyers who want the real atmosphere of Crete while still being close to everything. The beach, seaside tavernas, cafés, shops, supermarkets, and bus service are all within easy walking distance, making everyday life simple and enjoyable without needing to rely on a car.

The property has been recently refreshed, tastefully decorated, and furnished in a warm and comfortable style. It is ready to use immediately, whether as a permanent residence, a holiday home, or a rental investment. Its generous size, rare central location, and independent studio make it especially attractive for international buyers looking for a home with character, convenience, and strong holiday rental appeal.

On the ground floor, the house welcomes you into a small entrance hallway with a bathroom on the right-hand side. From there, a second door leads into a spacious, fully fitted kitchen with a dining area, creating a practical and inviting space for everyday living. At the far end, the lounge offers a cosy and relaxed atmosphere, complete with a log-burning stove for the cooler winter evenings. A staircase leads up to the first floor.

The first floor features a long hallway, with the first bedroom on the right opening onto a small balcony. The bathroom has practical “Jack and Jill” doors, allowing access from both bedrooms. The main bedroom, located at the end of the hallway, also benefits from its own balcony. From this level, stairs continue up to the roof terrace.

The roof level is one of the most special parts of the property. Here you will find a separate studio with its own bathroom and kitchenette, offering excellent flexibility for guests, family, remote working, or independent rental use. Sliding glass doors open directly onto the large roof terrace, creating a beautiful indoor-outdoor living area. The terrace wraps around the studio and enjoys views over the village rooftops, the old church, the peaceful neighbourhood, and a glimpse of the sea.

The location is truly charming. The house sits in a quiet residential part of old Kalyves, surrounded by narrow pedestrian streets, traditional homes, and a small old church with a rose garden nearby. At the same time, the lively coastal centre of Kalyves and the sandy beach are only a short walk away.

This is a property with real lifestyle value: spacious, renovated, full of character, and perfectly positioned for enjoying Crete on foot. Whether used as a year-round home, a holiday escape, or a rental property, it offers the ideal combination of village charm, modern comfort, and walking distance to the sea.
