Description

Located in the peaceful village of Kato Kalesia, this beautifully designed single-level villa embodies the bold vision of iconic Mexican architects Luis Barragán and Ricardo Legorreta. Their influence is evident in the home’s striking use of colour, interplay of light and shadow, and clean, geometric lines that create a sense of harmony and serenity.
Covering 145 m², the villa combines refined architectural simplicity with earthy Mediterranean charm, offering a unique blend of artistry and modern comfort.

The interior layout includes two spacious bedrooms, one bathroom, an additional WC, and an open-plan living/dining area with a fireplace. The modern kitchen is fully equipped and flows naturally into the main living space. The house features autonomous heating, air conditioning, solar water heating, and quality furnishings—ready to move in.

The outdoor space is a private oasis. Enclosed by a 6-meter-high stone wall spanning 90 meters of frontage, the 1,100 m² plot is filled with mature trees, flowering plants, and cacti. A spacious veranda, shaded courtyard, and secure parking for up to six vehicles (2 covered) complete the exterior amenities.

An additional building allowance of up to 250 m² offers unique potential for future expansion or guest accommodation.

About the Location

Kato Kalesia is a tranquil village just 15–20 minutes from Heraklion, offering easy access to work, shopping, and entertainment. It is also only 25–30 km from the new Kasteli airport, adding long-term investment value and convenience for frequent travellers.

The village combines a peaceful rural lifestyle with proximity to urban amenities. Unlike tourist resorts, it remains lively year-round, offering an authentic Cretan atmosphere, quiet streets, and a steady local rhythm. Its mild inland climate makes it ideal for enjoying the countryside and traditional activities such as the olive harvest.
