This beautiful villa sits in the heart of the traditional village of Douliana  - with its selection of cafes and tavernas. It is just a short drive to the larger villages of Vamos and Gavalohori and the local beach resorts of Almyrida and Kalyves.

The property has been thoughtfully renovated and retains all its original features combined with all modern amenities  -  for both full and part time living.

This lovely traditional stone villa has been completely renovated with care and attention to detail by the current owners.

Entering from a quite village Lane, the property has an arched double doorway leading directly into the vast covered entrance  - which is used as an outdoor dining and seating area (with a working fireplace).  

A stone archway leads into the pretty paved courtyards and gardens which have a wide variety of mature plants, flowers and herbs  - plus fruit trees and vines.  The gardens have irrigation and are easy to maintain all year round.

Around every corner is a shady and secluded area for outdoor seating, dining and enjoying the tranquility.

The property has an outdoor shower room and toilet  - which also houses the washing machine — plus a separate room currently used for storage, but which could also house a central heating boiler if required.

There is also a traditional ‘sterna’ which collects rainwater.

The interior of the property is just as charming, from the main door and hallway lies a fully fitted attractive blue kitchen with all appliances. 

From here the hallway leads into the extremely spacious main living area with a central feature archway, wood burner and wood beamed ceilings.

A step leads up to the current study area which also has a sofa bed for extra guests. Arched doorways lead from here back to the courtyard area.

Also on this level is a large, family bedroom and family bathroom with full bath and separate shower.

Wooden spiral stairs lead to the upper landing from where you can access the first large terrace area with covered pergola and tenta blinds all with lovely views to the Mountains.

Also from the landing is the vast master bedroom with wooden floors and high wooden vaulted ceiling. This room has a spacious en-suite bathroom with walk in shower.

A further door from the bedroom leads to the second large upper terrace with more space for outdoor seating and dining. External steps lead from here directly back to the lower level.
