Southern Crete, Komitades: Two stone houses with sea views and potential

An authentic pair with a view: two traditional stone houses in Komitades

Nestled amidst the unspoilt natural beauty of southern Crete, in the historic village of Komitades, this unique property complex awaits you. Set on a plot of approximately 520.13 m², there are two solidly built, adjoining stone houses that embody the unspoilt charm of the Sfakia region.

The property impresses with its elevated hillside location, offering spectacular, unobstructed panoramic views of the Libyan Sea all the way to the island of Gavdos.

An overview of the residential units

With a total living area of approx. 282.6 m², the houses offer ample space for individual design possibilities:

House 1 (approx. 137.07 m²): Spread over two floors (ground floor 74.89 m², first floor 62.18 m²).

House 2 (approx. 145.53 m²): Also two-storey (ground floor 73.08 m², first floor 72.45 m²).

The interiors are characterised by traditional features such as exposed stone walls, arched doorways and wooden ceilings, which create a warm and cosy atmosphere. The fittings include tiled and wooden floors, wooden doors and windows, and a cosy fireplace connection.

Outdoor area & highlights

The terrace and pool area is secluded and invites you to linger under the Cretan sun – absolute privacy:

Swimming pool: An approx. 6 x 3.85 m pool provides refreshment on hot summer days.

Garden & well: The property has its own well and mature trees.

Terraces & balconies: Various outdoor areas offer the perfect setting to enjoy the distant view of the deep blue sea.

Potential for individualists

The houses originally date from 1950 and are in need of some renovation. This offers the opportunity to realise an authentic renovation project according to your own ideas – whether as a spacious family home, a combination of a main residence and guest house, or an exclusive holiday home.

Thanks to the granny flat and the division into two units, the property is also ideal for tourist rentals or as a multi-generational home.

For nudists: there is an official nudist beach just 3 km away!
