2 Bed Apartment for sale
Platanias, Chania, Crete, Greece
Full Description
RENOVATED APARTMENT WITH INDEPENDENT GROUND FLOOR SPACE IN THE HEART OF PLATANIAS
The property is centrally located in the upper area of the charming town of Platanias. It consists of two separate apartments being sold together. Due to the sloping terrain, both are at ground level, with one serving as the main residence and the other as a guest house or for alternative use.
A picturesque cobbled path leads to the property, while a small asphalt road ends just 20 meters away. Additionally, a large municipal parking area is located within 200 meters for convenient vehicle storage. The building spans two ground levels and an additional upper floor, with the two apartments occupying the southwest section of the lower and middle floors. Currently, they are accessed externally via a few steps but could easily be connected with an internal staircase in the future. The building features a spacious front courtyard that leads to a small municipal park, ensuring unobstructed panoramic views of the surrounding area and the sea. Part of this courtyard, measuring approximately 30 m², is for the exclusive use of the upper apartment, making it an ideal space for dining, relaxing, or enjoying the views.
The upper apartment, measuring 52 m², opens into a bright, open-plan living and dining area. At the rear, there is a compact yet functional kitchen, a bathroom with a shower, and a bedroom with a built-in wardrobe. The apartment is equipped with ceiling fans in all rooms and air conditioning in the living space. The lower apartment is a 47 m² open-plan studio with an L-shaped layout. While the lower ceiling height may be a minor drawback, it has been beautifully renovated and is fully functional, making it perfect for rental purposes or hosting family and friends. The kitchen is located near the entrance, and front-facing windows provide ample natural light and delightful views.
The building is well-maintained, with several owners collectively ensuring its upkeep. Recent external renovations have been completed, and both apartments have undergone significant updates, the latest of which was in 2018. The sale includes all existing furniture and electrical appliances.
Platanias is a highly desirable area for both tourists and residents, offering a variety of restaurants, shops, and tourist amenities nearby. A long, pebbly beach with organized facilities is within walking distance. The vibrant city of Chania is a 25-minute drive away, and the airport can be reached in approximately 35 minutes. Purchasing these two apartments is an excellent opportunity, whether you’re seeking a vacation property with additional space for guests or an investment that provides substantial annual income from rentals or other uses.
