A HOME OF CHARACTER
Completed in 2024 and built from local stone, Carob House blends authentic Cretan craftsmanship with sleek contemporary design. Graceful stone arches, exposed timber beams and a dramatic floating staircase rising past tall picture windows create a home flooded with light and full of soul. The open-plan living and dining space flows into a designer kitchen with a cooking island and Miele appliances, perfect for relaxed family life and memorable dinner parties. Two bedrooms, a bathroom and a guest WC complete the main house, together with two terraces: an arched, covered terrace for long, lazy lunches and a first-floor terrace with sea views and unforgettable sunsets. A glass-fronted wood-burning fireplace for cosy winter evenings, air conditioning and underfloor heating ensure year-round comfort.

AN ADJOINING GUEST HOUSE
Linked to the main house by a covered walkway, the striking guest house offers a generous bedroom with a vaulted timber ceiling, built-in wardrobes, a stylish shower room and its own terrace overlooking the pool, giving guests complete independence. A workshop with its own entrance adds further flexibility.

YOUR OWN PRIVATE PARADISE
Behind stone walls and an electric gate, a long private drive leads to grounds that are a world of their own. Relax by the saltwater pool, gentle on skin and eyes, unwind in the stone pool pergola, rinse off under the outdoor shower and fire up the barbecue as the sun goes down. After dark, architectural lighting brings the stone arches, pergola and pool magically to life. A covered carport for two cars, cellar storage, alarm and security cameras, and fresh water and rainwater tanks add comfort and peace of mind.

ONE PROPERTY, ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES

A permanent Cretan home: everything you need for a new life in the sun, with every amenity close at hand.
A dream holiday villa: a ready-made escape for family and friends, with room for everyone.
An income opportunity: let the guest house while you live in the main house, or rent out the whole property as a luxury holiday villa (subject to licensing).
PRINES: AUTHENTIC VILLAGE LIFE
Carob House sits about 1 km from Prines, a charming historic village in green hills of olive groves and white oaks. Prines offers the peace of traditional Cretan life with excellent amenities, including a supermarket, pharmacy, petrol station, a butcher known for top-quality meat and local produce, and three traditional tavernas.

RETHYMNO: TEN MINUTES AWAY
Rethymno is a truly magical town. Its lively Venetian old town boasts fantastic architecture, a picturesque harbour and a labyrinth of old streets brimming with shops, tavernas and restaurants. The hospital is close by, beaches are around ten minutes away, and Chania and Heraklion airports make travel easy.
