Description
Set on the stunning west coast of Crete, in the picturesque area of Ravdoucha, this exceptional 7,251.73 m² plot offers a rare opportunity to build a luxury contemporary villa in one of the island’s most breathtaking locations. With a valid building permit already in place, construction can begin immediately, eliminating the lengthy approval process.
The approved architectural design features an impressive 350 m² multi-level villa with clean contemporary lines and a seamless connection to the surrounding landscape. Floor-to-ceiling windows, expansive terraces, and carefully planned living spaces are designed to maximize the spectacular panoramic views of the Cretan Sea and Ravdoucha Bay.
The project includes a spacious open-plan living and dining area with a modern kitchen, several en-suite bedrooms with private terraces, and generous outdoor entertaining areas. A striking infinity swimming pool forms the centerpiece of the design, perfectly blending with the natural hillside and creating an exceptional setting for outdoor living.
