#200m2 Detached House for Sale

A truly rare opportunity to acquire a fully renovated stone house with an exceptional private garden in the heart of Rethymno’s Old Town.

Set on a 300 sq.m. plot—a remarkable size for the historic center—this unique 200 sq.m. residence offers something almost impossible to find within the Old Town walls: expansive private outdoor space, mature trees, complete privacy, and a uniquely tranquil atmosphere just moments from the Venetian Harbour, restaurants, boutiques, and cultural landmarks.

Originally a traditional stone house, the residence underwent a complete renovation in 2026, carried out with great respect for the local architectural heritage while introducing a refined Mediterranean aesthetic with a contemporary twist. Warm earthy tones, natural materials, elegant detailing, and thoughtfully selected furnishings create a home that feels both timeless and effortlessly modern.

Arranged over two levels around a beautifully landscaped inner courtyard, the property has been designed to balance privacy with a seamless connection to its outdoor spaces. It currently operates as a collection of five independent suites and apartments, offering exceptional flexibility as a private residence, luxury hospitality venture, or a combination of both.

Detailed Description

The property comprises six bedrooms, six bathrooms, and three living areas, carefully distributed across five independent accommodation units.
The first entrance leads to the main stone building, where a charming ground-floor studio features a sleeping area, shower room, and separate WC. An internal staircase connects to the upper level, which hosts two additional residences. The first offers a spacious bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, while the second, larger apartment includes two elegant bedrooms, a bathroom, and a comfortable living area. This residence enjoys direct access to a generous terrace overlooking the garden and is also connected to the courtyard via an external staircase, creating a natural flow between indoor and outdoor living.

A second independent entrance opens directly onto the central courtyard and garden, providing access to two additional ground-floor residences. Designed as intimate private retreats, each benefits from its own outdoor space and distinct character. One comprises a living area, a bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, and an additional guest bathroom, while the second features a living room, a bedroom, and a bathroom. Carefully arranged terraces preserve privacy while maintaining a direct connection to the lush garden setting.

Throughout the property, every space reflects the vision behind the renovation: a harmonious dialogue between historic architecture and contemporary Mediterranean living. Original stonework, natural textures, handcrafted details, and carefully chosen furnishings create interiors of remarkable warmth and character. The design embraces a timeless elegance while introducing subtle, playful touches that give the property its distinctive personality and boutique-hotel appeal.

The true centerpiece of the estate is its extraordinary outdoor environment. Hidden behind the historic streets of the Old Town, the landscaped garden forms a private sanctuary of a scale rarely encountered within the city walls. Mature trees, shaded terraces, and inviting outdoor living spaces create a lifestyle more reminiscent of a secluded Mediterranean retreat than a residence in the heart of a vibrant historic center.

The property has also been thoughtfully designed to combine beauty with practicality. Storage areas, technical installations, and utility spaces have been discreetly integrated throughout the estate, ensuring seamless functionality without compromising its refined aesthetic.

Offered fully furnished and equipped, the residence is ready for immediate private use or hospitality operation. Features include air conditioning throughout, a solar water heating system, wooden double-glazed windows, awnings, high-quality appliances, security doors, and all modern amenities expected of a premium property.

Combining authentic architecture, a design-led renovation, exceptional outdoor space, and multiple independent living units, this is a truly rare offering within the walls of Rethymno’s Old Town. Whether envisioned as a prestigious private residence, a multi-generational family retreat, or a high-end hospitality investment, it represents a unique opportunity to acquire an asset of exceptional character that is virtually impossible to replicate today.
