Mediterranean villa with sea views near the beach – Stylish property in Stavros, Akrotiri, Crete

This spacious villa in Stavros, a charming coastal village on the Akrotiri peninsula near Chania, combines stylish living with the tranquillity of the Cretan countryside. Just a few minutes' walk from the fine sandy beach and crystal-clear water, the property is set on approximately 4,150 m² of private land and offers an ideal home – both for personal use and as a lucrative holiday home for rental.

With a living area of approx. 153 m², spread over two floors plus a basement, the villa impresses with its well-thought-out room layout and high-quality fittings. A total of four bedrooms – each with a private balcony – and three modern bathrooms offer plenty of space for family and guests.

The open-plan living and dining area with adjoining, fully equipped kitchen creates a pleasant living environment. A fireplace provides cosiness in the cooler months, while large windows and patio doors offer views of the surrounding nature. The adjoining covered terrace offers a fantastic panoramic view of the sea, the White Mountains and the well-kept garden with private pool.

Upstairs are three bedrooms with impressive views, large built-in wardrobes and two bathrooms, one of which is en suite. A fourth room on the ground floor is currently used as an office but would be ideal as a guest room. A staircase leads to the partly tiled roof terrace – perfect for sun worshippers.

The spacious basement is accessible via an internal staircase and separately from the outside – ideal for additional storage space or for storing garden furniture. The spacious outdoor area impresses with its lovingly landscaped gardens, a private swimming pool with sunbathing areas and an inviting outdoor dining area. An approved extension of the living space by a further 35 m² is possible.

The villa was designed for year-round living and has central heating, air conditioning and a solar system for hot water – a comfortable home on one of the most beautiful islands in the Mediterranean.
