Charming, detached bungalow with a Mediterranean-style garden

This charming bungalow in Neo Chorio, Apokoronas, Crete, is nestled amid beautiful green countryside and is for sale. Set on a 387.65 m² private lot, the house offers comfortable single-level living with 47.79 m² of living space.

The entrance leads directly into a bright, open-concept living and kitchen area featuring a newly equipped kitchen and a cozy living room with a traditional wood-burning stove. A small step leads to the hallway, from which you can access the bedroom and the spacious bathroom. The bathroom features a walk-in shower, and at the end of the hallway is a practical utility room with a washing machine.

The renovated and well-maintained house offers excellent potential for development, as a building permit has already been granted for an additional 20.34 m² double room. This gives the new owner the opportunity to further enhance the property.

The living room opens directly onto two terraces. The larger, covered terrace overlooks the garden and is ideal for outdoor dining, relaxing in the shade, or enjoying the tranquility of the surroundings. The garden is planted with a variety of Mediterranean plants and trees, including olive trees, palm trees, oleander, bougainvillea, rosemary, herbs, and climbing plants. There is plenty of space for outdoor living and gardening, with the possibility of installing a private swimming pool, subject to the necessary permits. Next to the house, there are two private parking spaces on the property, as well as an additional parking spot.

The combination of a quiet village setting, outdoor space, private parking, and proximity to local amenities makes this property an attractive choice—whether as a permanent residence, a vacation home, or simply a comfortable getaway in Crete.
