Chanias Bewaldete Villa

Set high in the forested hills of Agios Matthaios—one of Chania’s most prestigious residential enclaves—this elegant villa combines privacy, nature, and contemporary design just minutes from the historic city center. Surrounded by mature pines and panoramic views over the sea, Souda Bay, and Chania’s skyline, the property offers a rare balance of seclusion and proximity to the best of Crete. Built on a beautifully landscaped 3,143 m² plot, the villa unfolds across 215 m² of refined living space. The main residence features 4 spacious bedrooms, 2 bathrooms arranged across an open-plan layout that emphasizes natural light, flow, and connection to the outdoors. Floor-to-ceiling glass openings frame the surrounding greenery, allowing sunlight to move across the interiors throughout the day. A fully equipped designer kitchen, generous living room, and elegant lounge areas create an atmosphere of modern comfort. The seamless indoor–outdoor transition continues onto the expansive terraces, where the 11-meter swimming pool stretches toward the horizon. Here, pine trees, sea breezes, and sweeping views create an ideal setting for relaxing afternoons, open-air dining, and gatherings with complete privacy. A separate guest house—with its own private bathroom—serves as an excellent accommodation option for visitors or can function as an attractive source of rental income. Agios Matthaios — Chania’s Most Exclusive Hillside Retreat Agios Matthaios sits just a few minutes from Chania’s Venetian Old Town, yet feels worlds away in terms of tranquility and privacy. Elevated above the city, the area is known for its fresh air, panoramic views, low-density development, and refined residential character. Most homes here are high-end villas positioned to maximize privacy and take advantage of the dramatic vistas—making the neighborhood one of the most sought-after in Chania. Residents enjoy quick access to sandy beaches such as Kalathas and Stavros, the vibrant amenities of Kounoupidiana (only 6 km away), and local landmarks like the Venizelos Tombs and the iconic Koukouvagia Café, famous for its sweeping sunset views over Chania. Despite its peaceful atmosphere, Agios Matthaios offers exceptional convenience: • Nearest beach (Nea Chora): ~1.2 km • Chania Old Town: ~4 km • Chania International Airport (CHQ): ~9 km • Souda Cruise Port: ~8 km This blend of nature, exclusivity, and accessibility makes the area ideal for both personal living and long-term investment.
