In the traditional and picturesque settlement of Kranidi, a remarkable stone-built mansion with a tiled roof is offered for sale. Dating back to 1877, this exceptional property is a rare example of local architectural heritage. The three-storey detached residence has a total area of 450 sq.m. and is set on a 530 sq.m. plot, surrounded by a spacious stone-paved courtyard and a lush garden filled with trees and flowers. A high perimeter stone wall, complemented by three wooden entrance gates, ensures privacy while enhancing the property's traditional character.
The mansion is situated within the settlement, just 300 metres from the central square, in a privileged elevated position with both eastern and western orientations. Thanks to its unobstructed location, it enjoys panoramic views of the village, Koilada and the sea.
The residence is arranged over three levels, each with independent access from the exterior, while all floors are also connected internally by a wooden staircase. The ground floor comprises three spacious rooms with windows overlooking the garden and direct access through an impressive stone archway. This level also includes auxiliary storage areas, among them a vaulted storage room ideal for use as a wine cellar, as well as a large rainwater collection cistern.
An external stone staircase leads to the second level, where the courtyard connects to the interior through a double-leaf entrance door. A wide hallway with the internal wooden staircase provides access to the main living areas, which include a winter lounge with fireplace, a bathroom, a kitchen, a living room and two bedrooms.
The third and uppermost level is accessible both via the internal staircase and an external wooden staircase. Following a similar layout, a central hallway leads to all rooms. This floor features a bedroom, a kitchen, a WC, a large and bright sitting room with a fireplace, an additional bedroom with balcony access, a dining room and a living room. The dining room and living room are connected by an impressive four-panel interior door, creating a spacious open-plan area flooded with natural light and offering direct access to a balcony with uninterrupted views over Kilada Bay.
The property retains many authentic architectural elements from its era, including thick stone walls, wooden floors and ceilings, traditional high wooden window and door frames, the tiled roof, and generously proportioned rooms with high ceilings. A particularly distinctive feature is the rare pre-war enamel wood-burning kitchen stove, which adds unique character to the home. In addition, the property is equipped with central heating and offers two parking spaces.
Kranidi, a historic town in Argolis with a distinctive island-inspired architectural character, is one of the most attractive destinations in the Ermioni region. It is located just 7 km from Porto Heli and its beaches, 6 km from Kilada and the prehistoric Frachthi Cave, 47 km from the Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus, 70 km from Nafplio, and 194 km from Athens International Airport “Eleftherios Venizelos”. The area is also served by ferry connections through the ports of Ermioni and Porto Heli, providing access to Piraeus and the islands of the Saronic Gulf.
Thanks to its unique location, generous size and distinctive architectural features, this property represents an outstanding opportunity both as a private residence and for tourism or investment purposes. The presence of numerous restored traditional buildings in the surrounding neighbourhood further enhances the area's aesthetic appeal and value, creating an environment of prestige and authentic Greek beauty.
