Villa in Armeni nabij Sitia Oost-Kreta

Fully renovated and furnished house in Crete, in a peaceful mountain village near Sitia

For sale: a charming, fully renovated house located in Armeni, in eastern Crete, approximately 25 minutes by car from Sitia and from the sea on the south coast.

The house was fully renovated in 2021–2022, with great respect for its original character. Old hand-carved stones with decorative scroll motifs, probably dating from the Venetian period, were carefully preserved and reused. The original fireplace was also retained. In 2023–2024, the house was newly furnished and fitted out. A large proportion of the furniture, cupboards and household appliances is therefore still very recent.

The house is sold fully furnished and equipped, including the household appliances and equipment currently present.

The solar water heater on the roof, which provides hot water, was also installed in 2024.

The house comprises a living room with kitchen, one bedroom, a bathroom and a spacious additional open-air room.

On one side of the house there is a garden, which is also directly accessible from inside the house through a separate door.

From the bedroom, a separate door leads directly onto a pleasant flower-filled terrace, with enough space for two or more chairs and a small table. It is a lovely place to sit outside in the evening and enjoy the evening sun in complete peace.

All windows are fitted with roller shutters and blinds, providing privacy and effective protection from the sun. The house stays naturally and pleasantly cool, and so far air conditioning has never been necessary.

For cooler days, there is also a portable electric heater on wheels.

The house also has an existing fireplace, which is currently sealed. Following a technical inspection, it may be possible to reopen it and install an open fireplace or wood-burning stove.

House and land together: approximately 186 m².

The property is situated in a small and exceptionally peaceful mountain village, ideal for anyone who enjoys tranquillity, nature and authentic Crete. At the same time, Sitia, shops, amenities and the south coast are all easily accessible by car.

Thanks to its location at an altitude of approximately 800 metres and its thick traditional walls, the house remains pleasantly cool even during the hot summer months.

Thanks to the excellent Wi-Fi connection, the house is also very suitable for working from home and online meetings.
