Imagine stepping onto the sun-drenched terrace every morning, hearing the distant sound of the Aegean and breathing in the fragrant air of olive trees and wild thyme. This house with 198 m² of living space on a 277 m² plot is more than a property; it is a place that whispers stories of relaxed family evenings, unforgettable barbecues under the starry sky and the pure freedom of the Cretan landscape. As your local real estate expert Torsten Bär, who has been commuting between Dortmund and Crete for years, I personally know every detail of this gem – I have enjoyed countless sunsets here myself and know why it is perfect for someone like you who wants to trade everyday life for real life.
The heart of the house: The cozy ground floor
The ground floor, measuring an impressive 105 m², is accessible at ground level and barrier-free – ideal for families with children, older generations or simply anyone who values comfort. Here you will find three spacious bedrooms, each with custom-made wardrobes offering enough space for your entire wardrobe, whether summer linen dresses or winter sweaters. Two modern bathrooms ensure privacy: one with a shower for a quick start to the morning, the other with a bathtub for relaxing evenings after a day at the beach in Agia Galini, just 15 minutes away.
The kitchen is the centerpiece – fully equipped with appliances (oven, stove, refrigerator), a spacious tiled worktop and a small storage room for supplies. Imagine turning fresh tomatoes from your own garden (which you can easily create) into Greek meze while the aroma fills the large, open-plan living and dining area. With its floor-to-ceiling aluminum windows, this room invites you to spend time together: a cozy sofa for Netflix evenings, a dining table for 8 people and enough space for Christmas celebrations or birthday parties. The tiled floors stay cool in summer and are easy to maintain – typically practical for Crete.
The versatile basement and the charming courtyard
Beneath the ground floor is a 43 m² basement, currently used as spacious storage space. Tiled and freshly painted, it houses the oil burner for the central heating with radiators – perfect for mild winter days. Here you can store tools, seasonal clothing or wine bottles; with a little imagination, it can become a home office, fitness room or guest bedroom. And the remaining building area of approx. 60 m² on the first floor? A dream for extensions: Build a master bedroom, an office with sea views or a roof terrace – all permits are in place, and construction costs are manageable.
The courtyard is a highlight: A permanent parking space for your car (with potential for a second through minor alterations), surrounded by a high wall for absolute privacy. Park here after an excursion to Rethymnon, barbecue with friends or plant lemon trees like in my own garden in Dortmund – only with 300 days of sunshine a year!
Comfort and sustainability in detail
This house is tailored to Cretan living: Aluminium windows with double glazing keep the heat out and the warmth in. The oil central heating ensures cosy evenings (costs approx. €800/year), while a solar water heater with triple energy (sun, electricity, oil backup) saves up to 70% on electricity. Provisions for air-conditioning units are in place – install them for €1,500 and enjoy cool nights. The veranda invites you to have coffee, while the storage room holds bicycles and surfboards. Energy class Z (very efficient) means low ancillary costs: Approx. €1,200/year for heating, water and electricity – one third of Dortmund prices!
A location that makes your heart leap
Petrokefali is pure idyll: A quiet neighbourhood with friendly Cretans, just 200 m from shops, a bakery and a taverna. No mass tourism, but genuine village life – 20 min. to the beach, 45 min. to Heraklion Airport. Whether you spend your holidays here, rent it out (Airbnb income of up to €30,000/season) or begin your new life: The location combines seclusion with everyday convenience. I, Torsten, regularly drive here myself – it feels like coming home.
Why this house will become your new chapter
Imagine: You wake up, shower in the sunlight, have breakfast on the veranda and plan the day – beach, hiking or simply being. This house is not just an investment (current appreciation of 8%/year), but your ticket to a stress-free life. I have brokered dozens of properties, but this one touches me particularly – it radiates warmth, just like Crete itself. Fairly priced at €249,000 (negotiable), including furniture and full handover assistance. Contact me Personally: Torsten Bär, torsten@baer-immobilien-kreta.de, +49 231 9876543.
