Emilios House, Agia Paraskevi, Crete

As Featured in Sunday Times "50 Bargain Villas in Europe"

In traditional Cretan fashion, this semi-detached cottage is built directly onto a rocky buttress that forms the far end of the village square giving it an almost hobbit like ambience! On the first floor and sharing a shower room, are one twin and one double bedroom with sloping beamed ceilings and large French windows looking out over the quiet square towards the sea. Downstairs on one side of a small entrance hall, is a neat, well-equipped kitchen with attractive pine cupboards and dining table. Also off the entrance hall is a second shower room, plus the atmospheric living room built around the natural rock face and complete with a lovely open fireplace and fitted sofas.

Outside, the spacious terrace neatly paved in local stone, is partly covered and in summer becomes a cool extension of the living area. A screen of pink and white oleanders provide a high degree of privacy from the neighbouring cottage as well as welcoming shade in the afternoon. A great spot to sit with a cold drink and watch for falling stars at night.

In a sheltered spot to the far side of the house is a purpose built barbecue.

Location of Emilios House
Agia Paraskevi, Crete
Hidden away on the south coast between Agia Galini and Moni Preveli and a good 2 hours drive from Chania Airport, the tiny hamlet of Agia Paraskevi, stands high on the hillside looking out over the Lybian Sea. Virtually abandoned for 25 years, the village has over the past decade been slowly restored and brought back to life and now provides the ultimate place to unwind! ...More about Agia Paraskevi >>
