Most coastal houses in Greece face the sea and close in October. This one faces inward, toward a large private courtyard shaded by mature pines, enclosed by three wings of whitewashed stone, paved in the uneven slabs that only time produces.

At 300 m², The Historic Courtyard House is one of the largest characterful properties in Kranidi. It’s in an inpeccable condition. A small renovation for bathroom and kitchen, an a pool in the courtyards can transform it to modern times, without losing it’s character.

The 900 m² courtyards, with trees that give shade in high summer, is perfect for all year outdoor living. Kranidi is not a resort. It is a proper Greek town with a year-round population, and a hillside position that looks down over the rooftops to Kilada. You’re in town, in a quiet part, but within 5 min. at the most pristine beaches of the Greek Côte D’Azur.

The rooms are in good condition throughout, high ceilings, original timber shutters, walls finished in crisp white plaster. The quality of the original construction is visible in every detail.

The main living and dining rooms occupy the ground floor of the principal wing with stairs to the first floor with two bedrooms and a bathroom. A separate wing contains a quieter living room and a large bedroom. There is a white attic ladder leading to a mezzanine above with another two bedrooms.

Five bedrooms distributed across the wings, each distinctly furnished. Blue-painted timber beam ceilings, iron bed frames, antique wardrobes, including a finely hand-carved walnut armoire. Three bathrooms serve the house.

The kitchen is functional and in good order: white cabinetry, green marble countertops, original tiled floor.
