[1745] Karia Hillside Stone House
A renovated stone house in the heartland of Lefkada with delightful views onto the surrounding lush nature and the sea in the far distance
Located in the picturesque village of Karia with its vibrant square, local shops and taverns and the short- distance drive from the west coast beaches, this property can serve as a permanent or seasonal residence.
Built originally back to '30s this house made of stone was carefully restored, retaining many charming traditional features. It sits on a lot of 127m² and provides total accommodation of 138m², equally divided between ground and first floor.
A small hallway welcomes you on the ground floor with two stone archways, one of them leading into a room, used currently as a storage. The second one opens up to a cozy living area, where the integrated in the walls rocks and the wooden ceiling, with some of the original beams preserved, infuse the space the charm of the traditional. The alpine wood oven, which heats the upper floor as well, enhance the authentic atmosphere the cooler months. A bathroom with a shower is also offered at this level.
The upper floor, reached by a wooden staircase, hosts the bedroom with its en-suite bathroom with underfloor heating, an open plan kitchen and dining area, and a separate living room with an electric fireplace, which can be easily converted into a second bedroom. A folded-up ladder provides additional storage space below the roof.
Stepping outside you find yourself to a shaded balcony, which offers views to the scenic surroundings. An outside stair offers also direct access from this floor to the stone-paved terrace, where you can enjoy moments of relaxation or joyful gatherings with friends. The closed parking below the terrace completes this turn-key property.
