Design House restored into a leisure home of the Cretan country side. Panoramic views to the sea
The Art House in the village of Anatoli has been recently restored with the personal air and character of a leisure home of the Cretan countryside. Artistically restored and furnished with stylish furniture, it combines the lost qualities of traditional home architecture with modern facilities and luxury. The house is 185 m2, enclosing a 60m2 courtyard with a 100m2 top terrace. The house has been restored with exquisite details and is furnished with selected pieces from Neoclassical Greece and paintings of well known contemporary Greek artists. All rooms open either to the courtyard or the terrace and capture views of the sea (except of the smallest double bedroom). It can accommodate 8 adult persons and 2 children, since it has 5 main rooms, three of which are double bedrooms, a sitting room with fire place, a dining room with two couch-beds, a spacious kitchen, and 2 bathrooms. It can function as a spacious, unique house for a demanding family or for two families or friendly couples, as the bedrooms accompanied by own bathrooms are laid at the ends of the house with communal areas in between.
The village, folding down a slope behind the city of Ierapetra, is dating from Venetian times. Having kept its architectural and agricultural character is renowned for its healthy climate (dry and cool in summer, warm and sunny in winter), peaceful environment and splendid views to the sea. The location is ideal for all season’s vacation, amidst a green and sculptured rocky environment of outstanding natural beauty, that offers peace and tranquility of mind and senses, while being in short distance from some of the most beautiful, sandy-blue flag- beaches of Crete. At 12 km (20min drive) the city of Ierapetra offers all facilities and activities of a big city (shops, supermarkets, banks, doctors, water front esplanade with restaurants and cafes, archaeological Collection, organized beach etc). At 22km (30min drive) the cosmopolitan town of Agios Nicolaos, as Prefecture city, offers further services and facilities as well as variety of touristic attractions and sports as scuba diving, sailing, boat visits to resort beaches and nearby islands etc. Daily cultural excursions to archaeological sites, Byzantine and Venetian monuments as well as to Natural Monuments (mountain and forest walks, gorges, visits to nearby chapels set up on gorgeous landscapes etc) can be combined with swimming in sandy beaches and picturesque gulfs (all supported by small taverns).
