Single-family detached house 222 m², Main town - Chora, Rhodes

This historic, detached house is located in one of the most popular streets of the medieval town of Rhodes. The house was built for the daughter of a Turkish Pasha on the foundations of a building dating back to the period of the Knights of St. John as revealed in the elaborate pebble mosaic, with the Cross of St. John located at the entrance. Another strong point is the beautiful inner courtyard with complete privacy. During the renovation carried out by the current owners, some 20 years ago, they decided to maintain many of the elements and materials that were present in the house, some of which probably date back to 1850. It is spread over two levels and has a total of four bedrooms and two bathrooms. There are two entrances and it is accessible by car which can be parked approximately 200 meters from the property, solely for residents of the Old Town. Due to its location and size, it can also be exploited for investment purposes. Location: Located next to the main town of Rhodes, north of the island, 13km from the International airport of Rhodes and also next to the main harbour. Unique features: The Medieval Old Town of Rhodes is one of the best preserved citadels in Europe which in 1988 was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. When entering the Old Town one steps into another era with numerous alleyways and historical landmarks to discover. One of the most obvious sights is the Grand Master’s Palace (15th. Century) which can be approached from the famous cobbled Street of the Knights. With a mixture of minarets from the Ottoman period, medieval structures from the Italian period, an assortment of tourist shops and watering holes for a cosmopolitan nightlife, the Old Town offers endless fascination in its own individual orb. Accessibility: Access into the Old Town of Rhodes is permitted only for residents who have their own vehicles. There are electric taxis that take passengers from the gates of the Old Town inside the walls. Investment potential: As there is only limited space available, plot prices are very high. Prices are therefore highly dependent on the state of the relevant plot or building.
