Description

Nestled amidst the rustic charm and breathtaking beauty of the Cretan landscape, in the serene locale of Gouves, Iraklion, lies a unique opportunity to own a stunning piece of property just waiting for the right owner to call it home. I'm always running here and there showing homes, but this one has caught my busy eye for anyone looking to settle in a peaceful spot with sea views and a slice of nature. This charming detached house in Gouves offers a blend of serenity, Mediterranean allure, and the essential comforts that any homeowner would need. With the sun-dappled beach a mere 670 meters away, the house promises a lifestyle brimming with sun, sea, and Cretan culture.

Let me walk you through – picture this, a two-story house spread over 95 m² nestled on a generous plot of 1,000 m². The home is in good condition, just waiting for someone to respect its character while maybe adding their personal touch. On the ground floor, the open-plan design invites you into a living room that softly integrates with the kitchen space. A convenient WC is also located here, perfect for guests or that quick dash to the loo when you’re racing out the door.

Make your way up to the first floor, where two cozy bedrooms await, offering relaxation at the end of the day. These rooms embrace tranquility, offering glimpses of the sea or the lush landscape. A shared bathroom services this floor, practical yet stylish, nestled conveniently between the bedrooms for ease.

Now, let's talk outdoor living – an essential aspect of life in Gouves. Stepping out, you will find yourself enveloped by a delightful terrace and balcony space, perfect for lounging or planning intimate dinners with the sea breeze for company. The plot itself is a gardener’s dream with mature lemon, orange, and tangerine trees, all adding a vibrant, fragrant touch to your backyard oasis. Bougainvillea and roses color the landscape with a palette that changes with the seasons. There are three spacious parking slots, ensuring easy access for all your vehicles.
