Villa in Palailonion
Palailonion, Crete
Paleloni is a small hamlet of stone houses in the hills above Kefalas, and this estate occupies 2,160 sqm of it: a restored Cretan home, a separate guest house, a long private pool and gardens that have had years to mature.Together, the two buildings offer approximately 202 sqm of living space, with open views across the countryside towards the mountains. It should be noted that there is a residual building factor and an active building permit for the further development of the plot.The main residence, approximately 160 sqm, began life as a traditional Cretan village house. It has been carefully restored and more recently updated, keeping the natural materials and traditional detailing that give these houses their character while adding the comforts expected of a modern home.The house has living and dining areas, a fully equipped kitchen with gas cooking, 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. An internal staircase rises to a mezzanine, currently furnished as a sitting room, which would work equally well as a study, a reading corner or an extra sleeping area. A separate external bathroom with laundry, together with storage space, keeps the practical side of the estate out of the living areas. The property is offered furnished.Set apart from the main house, the guest house of approximately 42 sqm is fully self-contained, with its own bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and living area. An attic level above adds space for extra beds or storage. Guests can come and go on their own schedule, and the arrangement suits long family visits as well as letting.The pool, approximately 50 sqm, is the focal point of the grounds, with wide terraces around it for loungers and outdoor dining. Beyond the terraces, the landscaped Mediterranean garden is arranged as a series of separate spaces rather than one open lawn: shaded corners under mature trees, stone-paved seating areas, a barbecue and a private mini tennis court.Because the planting is established, the garden already offers shade and privacy rather than the promise of it, and the stone architecture sits comfortably within the surrounding landscape.With two independent homes on one plot, the estate suits buyers who like to host. The family can settle into the main house while friends or grown-up children have the guest house to themselves, and everyone can meet at the pool. Between visits, the guest house can stay closed or be let, leaving the main house as a quiet retreat.Rental potentialApokoronas is one of western Crete's established holiday rental areas, with demand for village houses with private pools running from spring well into autumn. The separate guest house adds flexibility, as it can be let on its own or together with the main residence for larger groups. Local rental management services can handle bookings and guest care for owners who prefer to have it done for them.Location - distancesPaleloni lies in the uplands of Apokoronas, east of Chania, among olive groves and low hills. The hamlet itself has no shops, but Kefalas has tavernas and cafés, and the larger villages of Vamos and Gavalochori cover everyday needs. For swimming, the rocky cove of Ombros Gialos is the closest option, while Almyrida and Kalyves offer organised sandy beaches, restaurants and supermarkets. Apokoronas also has a long-standing international community.Kefalas: 2 kmOmbros Gialos: 4 kmVamos: 7 kmGavalochori: 8 kmAlmyrida Beach: 11 kmKalyves: 14 kmGeorgioupolis: 17 kmChania city centre: 30 kmChania International Airport: approximately 38 km
