Single-family detached house Ep. Odos Leykadas-Kato Exantheias, Tsoykalades 31100, Main town - Chora, Lefkada

LEFKADA ISLAND / TSOUKALADES: A 658 sqm plot of land on the outskirts of the village of Tsoukalades (at the greater Chora area) is up for sale; it comprises 2 parcels of land: a) on the first half there is a 200 sqm house built in 2011, while b) on the other half there is allowance to develop another detached house of similar size. a) The existing house is of contemporary architecture, overlooking the setting of the sun in the Ionian Sea and enjoying the open vistas of the surrounding olive-grove hills via extensive windows. A spacious 200 sqm detached house organized in 3 levels: semi-basement, raised ground-floor level, and 1st floor. Upon entering at ground floor level, there is the sitting area with the free-standing fireplace, while on the other side of the entrance there are the open-plan kitchen and dining room areas. The main staircase interconnects all three levels. The 1st floor accommodates 3 bedrooms, full bathroom and two balconies, while the semi-basement level holds 2 bedrooms, a full bathroom, and storage space that has direct entrance/exit from/to the garden. *There is the capacity to convert the house into 2 residencies: one of 135 sqm that may include the ground and basement floors, while the second one maybe of 65 sqm surface at 1st-floor level (via future independent staircase). From a design point of view, this house blends the volumes and color palettes of the Ionian Island vernacular, with contemporary architectural ‘vocabulary’. The ‘base’ of the house of grey exposed reinforced concrete meets the ‘lighter’ and expanded top-floor structure of olive-green metal sheet corrugated panels, crowned by red-clay colored metal sheet roof elements. Clear volumes, industrially produced building systems and materials, corner windows at critical views, and a luscious garden in sync with the surroundings are the main elements of this residence; ideal as a vacation home, a permanent residence, or an income investment in the short-lease hospitality sector with an expected income of €30,000 per annum. The existing residence comes with double-glazed window panels on heat-insulation design window frames, equipped with insect screens, air-conditioning units, and a safety main entrance door. The house comes with the cable installations for a heat-pump and an alarm system. The perimeter of the plot has a natural stone masonry wall adding texture and boundaries. There is also a 12 cubic meters water tank for maintaining the garden. The existing house sits on 323 sqm of land; part ‘A’ of the plot. b) Regarding part ‘B’ of the plot that may be independently developed, its surface is 284 sqm [and there are also another ~50 sqm of common plot space; therefore, when added together it is: ~ (323+284+50) sqm=~657 sqm of plot surface]. Part ‘B’ is facing the main village road and has ample views to the sunset horizon, as well. Along the lines of what is common in the area, the future house may be a 3-level property comprising: a ground floor of ~55 sqm, a 1st floor of ~55 sqm, and the bonus semi-basement of another ~55 sqm; a total of 165 sqm of usable space. The 3-level organization allows for maximization of views into the horizon. Alternatively, a flat development of 110 sqm in one floor is possible, and along this concept there could be an equal size (semi-)basement, developing in total 220 sqm (or 2x110 sqm vertically organized) building. These are approximations of what could be; proportions, exact sizes, layout organization, terraces and semi-enclosed spaces and most importantly, the morphology and aesthetics of the future development are to be configured by the architect to be commissioned. Both houses have ample garden around them, may function independently or in conjunction and there could be room for at least one swimming pool that may be deemed as a necessity for the hospitality sector. The respective income estimate for short-lease hospitality for the future house is in the area of €20,000 per annum. Therefore, the total expected hospitality income is in the area of €50,000 per annum on the basis of renting out the properties as family vacation homes. - A mere 770 m direct distance from the coast / a 3,6 km drive from the beautiful Pefkoulia Beach. Also available, there are numerous clear water beaches at close distance. - Walking distance to the shopping area of the village - 5 min drive from the city of Lefkada, and 3,5-hour drive from Athen’s airport. - Aktio airport is at 20 min drive from Lefkada city, on the coast of the mainland across Lefkada island.
