DCR-156 PROPERTY FOR RENOVATION priced at €79,000

This split-level original Cretan village property with a red tiled roof is located on a rise on the edge of the village, by a country road leading up to an
ancient local church.

Though in need of total renovation, one can see clearly the excellent potential for an extensive home in a marvellous location.

Opening from a wide front terrace, the double wooden doors of the house lead into a large room with a wooden floor.  This room has two windows and a recessed cupboard which could be opened to make a third window facing the lovely views.
From here, wooden stairs lead down to a lower room  with its own doorway and next to this is another separate room, also with its own doorway. Then, at right angles, there is another room which was the original kitchen, again with its own doorway. These three lower rooms could be connected to make all four rooms the main dwelling and their separate doorways becoming French doors to the garden/courtyard.  A few steps down a little path is a square stone building with a flat roof, which could become guest accommodation, an office or study.

Continuing down this little path one enters the two areas of wooded hillside which complete the property and provide lots of leafy walks and shady glades in which to sit and relax, read or eat.

An excellent area for nature walks and hill climbing Fres is a large, substantial, traditional village with a baker, butcher and a mini-market as well as a very useful information office, cafes and tavernas. 

Vrysses and Vamos, large working villages, are a short drive away with all amenities and it is not far to the beaches at Almyrida, Kalyves and
Georgioupolis.  Hania, Rethymnon and the airport are an easy drive away through beautiful countryside.
