Description

Step into the timeless atmosphere of this enchanting stone house in the heart of Pirgou, where authentic Cretan character meets thoughtful modern comfort. Originally built around 1910 and carefully restored in 2010, the home extends over 145 m² across two levels, preserving its traditional soul while benefiting from upgraded infrastructure.

The ground floor centres around a welcoming kitchen with a wood-burning stove, alongside a comfortable bedroom and bathroom. Upstairs, a wooden staircase leads to a bright, high-ceilinged living room and additional sleeping area, opening onto a veranda with panoramic views of the surrounding mountains. Thick stone walls provide excellent natural insulation, keeping interiors cool in summer and beautifully cosy in winter when the stove is lit.

This is more than a house; it is a place with atmosphere and soul, a peaceful village retreat where life slows down, neighbours still greet each other, and each day is framed by nature, light, and the enduring traditions of Crete.
