Property Information

Set in the peaceful countryside of Episkopi, Rethymno, this 2,413.87 sq.m. plot presents an attractive opportunity for the development of two contemporary residences in a beautiful Cretan setting.

Positioned on gently sloping terrain, the property benefits from an elevated, amphitheatrical orientation and open views towards the sea. Its natural layout is particularly well suited to residential development, offering privacy and the potential to create inviting outdoor areas that make the most of the surrounding landscape.

A major advantage of the property is that much of the planning process has already been completed. An active building permit is in place, together with approved architectural plans for two independent adjoining villas, allowing a future owner to move forward with the project without starting the design and permitting process from scratch.

The proposed residences have been designed with modern holiday living in mind. Each villa measures approximately 88 sq.m. and includes three en-suite bedrooms, an open-plan kitchen, dining and living area, plus a guest WC. The concept places particular emphasis on indoor-outdoor living, creating a natural flow from the interiors to the exterior relaxation and entertaining areas.

The location combines a tranquil atmosphere with convenient access to the coast. The long sandy beach of Episkopi is only a short drive away, while Rethymno town can also be easily reached for shopping, dining, entertainment and everyday amenities.

With its sea views, approved plans and active building permit, this property offers a compelling starting point for creating two stylish homes in one of Crete’s most appealing regions. It could be equally suited to a private residential project, holiday homes or a professionally managed rental investment.
