A Luxurious & Elemental Ode To The Beauty of Crete
Placed just above the sea, this newly built luxury villa in Crete is a private paradise immersed in nature, that appears to have been designed by the island itself! Luxuriously natural with a handcrafted feel, the construction and design, recalls traditional Cretan architecture.
Constructed of all-natural, locally sourced materials such as stone and wood, the design duplicates the look and feel of island homes but with a decidedly luxurious spin.
A Luxurious & Elemental Ode To The Beauty of Crete
Situated at the top of Cape Koutoula along the rugged western coast, this luxury villa in Crete is an expansive and indulgent escape, designed around the textures and colors of the island’s natural features. Composed of locally quarried stone, wood, and concrete, it’s a contemporary version of traditional Cretan architecture, combining elegance and the raw elements of nature.
The property’s seamless indoor-outdoor flow establishes a deep connection with the landscape, where you’ll feel as if you are part of the mountain, with the sound of the waves and the breeze comes off of the sea getting you closer to the essentials while expanding your horizon.
The interiors are spacious and airy with the main floor living areas opening entirely, engaging you with the scenery, with plenty of space for entertaining and relaxing. The lounge and dining area feature a gourmet kitchen on one side, and an indoor/outdoor atrium with a fabulous fireplace, expanding the living spaces further.
There are four en suite master bedrooms, each with private entrances to the pool terraces and sea views with room for eight guests.
The interiors successfully combine the modern with the traditional, with luxurious but understated furnishings and decor paired with earthy stone, wood and concrete finishes.
The grounds are ideal for holiday fun in the sun with a large swimming pool, outdoor lounges with a barbecue and dining areas, and space to spread out and relax in style.
CRETE'S WESTERN COAST
The western coast of Crete features wild natural landscapes and two of the top ten ranked beaches in Greece: Balos and Elafonisi. A quieter less populated region, it stretches from Balos and Falasarna to Livadia, Elafonisi and the Krios peninsula in Paleohora and Kissamos to the north.
The nearby village of Livadia is a charming and traditional village and is located along the seaside route of the European E4 hiking path. The historic old port town of Chania with it’s Venetian harbor, seaside palaces and busy resorts is about an hour’s drive, and the medieval archeological heritage village of Maroulas is situated just a few miles from the Venetian harbor town of Rethymno along the scenic northern coastline.
