Charming Two-Unit Village House with Arched Courtyard in Agia Galini.

A property full of character and authentic Cretan charm is available for sale in the heart of Agia Galini — one of South Crete’s most beloved coastal villages, with the beach just a five-minute walk away. Set on a 400 sq.m. plot in a quiet residential neighbourhood, the residence consists of two independent living units totalling 120 sq.m., each with its own private outdoor space.

The upper unit of 80 sq.m. offers a living room, kitchen, three bedrooms and a bathroom, with balcony doors and windows in every room. A spacious balcony with traditional iron railings runs along the front of the house, ideal for enjoying the Cretan sunshine. The unit is accessed through a private courtyard enclosed by a low wall and a wrought-iron gate, planted with trees, flowers and vegetables.

The lower unit of 40 sq.m. is accessible both from the street and via an internal staircase connecting to the upper floor. It comprises an entrance hall, a kitchen area, one bedroom and a large bathroom. Its standout feature is a striking covered veranda with a series of white-painted arches opening onto a lush private courtyard filled with citrus trees, pomegranates and flowers, a truly atmospheric outdoor space. This unit requires full renovation, representing an excellent opportunity to restore and personalise it entirely to one’s taste.

The property benefits from access on two road levels, situated just above the junction where the two roads diverge, yet remains in a peaceful part of the village away from the busy village center.

Built before 1980, the house retains its original wooden shutters and frames throughout. Properties of this size, character and location in Agia Galini are increasingly rare, this is a genuine opportunity to own a piece of authentic Crete, steps from the sea.

Asking price: €300,000
