Single-family detached house Anatoliki Mani Lakonia, Peloponnisos, Drimos, East Mani

215,000€ buys a self-contained plot of land with two houses on a rough and steep Greek mountainside in eastern, inner Mani overlooking the bay of Kotronas. The main house incorporates a traditional Mani tower, attached to a large main living room, a big kitchen, shower room, 2 balconies with stunning views, plus, some yards away, another separate 2-storey building with a spacious single room on each level and a small balcony. This second building requires a cosmetic finish to the interior; it is used currently for storage / hobby, though it could later be useful to provide an extra income, if updated. A large, roofed workshop provides an area for woodworking, tools, machinery, hobbies, with electricity on hand and big workbench. The land measures around 0.2 hectares/ 2 stremata and sustains 24 old established olive trees on the rocky terrain, supplying the home with good organic olive oil. A huge water cistern collects and stores rainwater to supply the property with free water. Mains water to the village has now been connected too, so the huge cistern might be transformed into a swimming pool! The whole estate is in a spectacular superior position overlooking the sea at the very edge of the village with no immediate close neighbours. The views over the sea and of the mountain are breath-taking. Here is a natural enclave: a paradise for bird watchers, carpets of wild flowers - outside the dry summer months, of course - plus visits by buzzards, wild boar, the occasional snake or even a jackal. Please note: the whole property is accessible on foot; the road for vehicles stops at the nearest neighbour about 100 metres away. This has been the owner's choice while living here for the past 27 years in order to maintain the property's exclusivity, privacy, and peacefulness. Any new owner may choose to have an access road cut, but the houses are sold without that and remain accessible only by footpaths.
