It is rare to find the quality of restauration and authenticity that this Aegean property offers: the owner has gone to great extents to refurbish antique items -many found in the original house- and to restore this 100+ year old house as closely as possible to its original state (plus modern amenities).
The house itself is a hop away from the main town square where one can find restaurants, a super market, bakery, museum, cafes, shops, etc. The parking lot is 200 meters away (downhill one way...).
The house is split in three levels:
-
on the street level, we find the "guest house", a separate large room with a loft bedroom (one double bed), a separate bathroom and a sitting sleeping area for another 2 children. The "guest house" has separate entrance and does not communicate witht the main property other than from the cobblestone road and main entrance of he house. The guesthouse is available after June 08.
-
The middle level features the main entrance, a large living room with fireplace, ensuite under the arch, a fully equipped kitchen, a sleeping are next to the kitchen with two single beds, a small balcony and a WC two bedrooms and one bathroom.
-
You reach the top level through a wooden staircase and hatch that gives the bedroom privacy. There you find the masterbedroom (one double) with a bathroom, plus access to a large protected open air yard and a patio with a breathtaking view of the horizon
IMPORTANT NOTE: Reaching this house involves a 10-15 minute uphill walk from the Ioulis parking lot, not for the lazy, drunk or weak at heart. Vehicles are not allowed for non-commercial use in the traditional settlement of Ioulis. This house is NOT accessible by car.
