Earth, Sea & Air Agios Pavlos, Crete

Property Description

This stunning stone home built into the rust red slope of a hill in the Cretan seaside village of Agio Pavlos is the stuff dreams are made of. A unique architectural marvel, this beautiful, bioclimatic home exists in harmony with the natural landscape and boasts uninterrupted sea views as well as a private patio, alfresco dining and lounging area and plunge pool. Perfect for eco-conscious couples, this mythic home features a lovely light filled, open plan kitchen cum dining and living room courtesy of floor to ceiling sliding glass doors which open out onto the patio. The interior savvy among you will appreciate the intelligent use of natural materials – think beautifully blue patterned tiles against whitewashed walls, wooden worktops, sideboards and stools, wicker lampshades and smooth stone floors – and prevalence of shades of blue which combine to create a soothing and serene aesthetic.

You’ll love gazing out to sea from the privacy of your patio, lazing on loungers in the sun and cooling off with a dip in your private pool before rinsing off under the outdoor shower in time for a Greek salad or oúzo o’ clock. A mere 250 metres from the beach, a beachfront café-bar and a local tavern, you’ll be able to paddle or peddle boat in gorgeous green waters as well as indulge in copious amounts of Cretan cuisine within minutes – what’s not to love?
