2 bedroom / 2 bathroom renovated stone villa of 104sqm living space in a peaceful village within the hills in the village of Kalathenes

This charming villa has been tastefully renovated and gives you stunning unobstructed rural views.  The property is semi-detached and comes with a plot of land (734sqm) which is around 40meters down the hill from the house.

The traditional village of Kalathenes is located a bit less than 20 minutes driving inland from the famous town of Kastelli. The village itself has small paths going through the resident areas and is at an altitude of 290m. 

A bread man, cheese truck, vegetable truck and fish truck pass by the village weekly and there is a lovely taverna within 2 minutes walking distance from the house which is open all year round but provides food seasonally. 

The nearby villages of Topolia and Kaloudiana offer daily amenities such as mini markets and bakery. The large town of Kissamos is lively all year round and has everything one needs: supermarkets, shops, cafes, restaurants, schools, post office, police station, medical center, pharmacies, beaches and much more. 

The current owners live in the house all year round so the property is equipped for year-round living but could easily be used as a holiday home.


INTERIOR:

The main entrance is on a small village path. Just three steps up give access to the entrance door which opens onto the ground floor. A spacious hallway leads to the two bedrooms and family bathroom. 

To the right of the main entrance is the master bedroom, equipped with a walk-in wardrobe, an en-suite shower room and an east facing covered balcony overlooking the village church and the countryside. 

To the left of the entrance is the guest bedroom, big enough to fit a double bed if wanted. A window looks out into the village path and the church across.
 
Between the two bedrooms is the family bathroom which is fully tiled and equipped with a sink, WC, tub with a screen, and a towel rail. 

Marble steps lead to the upper floor which consists of a very spacious living room and dining area, with raised beamed ceilings and plenty of light, and a fully equipped and recently renovated separate kitchen. 

The kitchen is specially designed by the current owners, using high quality materials and includes plenty of storage cupboards, a double sink, and built-in stainless-steel appliances. The window above the sink has most amazing views of the countryside! 

The living room is equipped with a wood burner, a dining area, and some built-in storage. A door opens on a partly covered tiled balcony enjoying the best views! 

The balcony has more than enough space for a dining table and chairs, as well as for a couple of sun beds. A mobile BBQ is found here, and half of the balcony is covered by a tiled pergola. 

EXTERIOR:

The property comes with a landscaped plot which is found just 40m down the road from the main entrance of the house. The only thing between the house and the land is the village church. 

The land is 734m2 and is planted with olive trees, plum tree, mandarin, apple, Satsuma as well as a variety of colorful flowers and local herbs. There are a few great sitting spots here where again the rural views are enjoyed from. 

A short video presentation is available for this property on request.
