3 Bed Villa for sale
Gavalohori, Chania, Crete, Greece
Full Description
A three-bedroom villa in the heart of Gavalohori, one of Apokoronas’ most established year-round villages. The layout splits cleanly between a two-bedroom main house on the ground floor and a self-contained studio apartment above ideal for owners wanting rental income without sacrificing privacy, or extended families who need their own space under the same roof. Views stretch across the countryside to Souda Bay and the White Mountains, with the beaches of Almyrida and Kalyves just ten minutes away and Chania reachable in 35 minutes.
The main house opens through an entrance hall with built-in storage into a bright living room crowned by wooden vaulted ceilings and warmed by a wood-burning stove the kind of detail that sells the property in photos and makes it genuinely liveable in January. A sun-filled conservatory serves as the dining area, and the fully fitted kitchen comes complete with all appliances. A few steps up take you to two double bedrooms, both with fitted wardrobes, ceiling fans and air conditioning, alongside a family bathroom with a large walk-in shower.
The upper floor is accessed via external stairs and functions as a completely independent studio apartment: open-plan living area, kitchen, a spacious double bedroom and shower room. Rent it, host guests, or give the in-laws their own front door.
Outside, a 24 m² private pool is set within sun terraces and served by an outdoor shower, with a covered dining area for long lunches in the shade. The gardens are well-landscaped and secluded, the driveway is gated with ample parking, and there are multiple storage areas plus a separate utility room with washing machine.
This property fits three distinct buyer profiles. Full-time relocators get a village with genuine character and all-season infrastructure rather than a coastal resort that shuts down in winter. Investors gain a dual-income property the main house plus an independent studio that can be rented separately on short-term platforms, maximising yield across the May–October high season. Extended families get two fully distinct living spaces on one plot, with shared outdoor areas but complete privacy indoors.
