Contemporary Villa Under Construction with Independent Guest House & Private Pool in Kefalas

Set in the peaceful surroundings of Kefalas, Apokoronas, this beautifully designed new-build villa combines contemporary Mediterranean architecture, natural materials and a particularly flexible layout, offering privacy and comfortable year-round living.

Currently under construction, the property offers approximately 133 m² of total living space, set on approximately 636 m² of private-use land, and has been designed entirely on one level.

Natural stone, clean architectural lines, earthy tones and large openings create a contemporary home that blends naturally into the surrounding Cretan landscape.

Main Residence.

The main residence features two bedrooms and two bathrooms, together with a spacious open-plan kitchen, dining and living area.

At the heart of the home is the bright open-plan living space, where the contemporary kitchen flows naturally into the dining and lounge areas. Large glazed openings provide plenty of natural light and create a direct connection between the interior and the pool terrace.

Both bedrooms have been designed with comfort and privacy in mind, complemented by two modern bathrooms.

The single-level layout provides an easy flow throughout the property, with the main living areas opening directly onto the terraces, swimming pool and landscaped outdoor spaces.

Independent Guest House.

One of the property’s most distinctive features is its independent guest house, incorporated into the overall design while offering a high degree of privacy and autonomy.

Designed as a fully functional private studio, it features its own sleeping area, private bathroom, kitchenette and small sitting area.

The guest house benefits from both an internal connection to the main residence and its own independent exterior entrance.

This flexible arrangement allows it to function as an integral part of the villa when required, effectively providing a third sleeping area, while also allowing visiting family or friends to enjoy their own completely private accommodation.

Overall, the property therefore provides three sleeping areas and three bathrooms, with the significant advantage of one being arranged as a self-contained guest accommodation rather than a conventional third bedroom.

Private Pool & Outdoor Living.

Outdoor living forms an important part of the property’s design.

A private swimming pool forms the centrepiece of the exterior area, surrounded by generous terraces, shaded areas and Mediterranean landscaping.

The outdoor spaces have been carefully designed to provide areas for dining, relaxing and entertaining while maintaining a natural connection with the surrounding landscape.

Stone elements, olive trees and Mediterranean planting complement the contemporary architecture and enhance the property’s sense of privacy.

A designated private parking area is also incorporated into the design.

Construction, Equipment & Comfort.

The villa is currently under construction and will be delivered with the principal fixed elements required for comfortable everyday living.

The sale includes the fitted kitchen with cabinetry and countertops, built-in wardrobes and installed sanitary ware and bathroom fittings.

For year-round comfort, the property will also be equipped with a heat pump system providing heating and cooling throughout all interior spaces.

The villa is sold without movable furniture and decorative contents, allowing the future owner to furnish and personalise the property according to their own style and requirements.

A Contemporary Home with Exceptional Flexibility.

The combination of modern architecture, independent guest accommodation, year-round heating and cooling and a peaceful setting in the Cretan countryside makes it an excellent choice as a permanent residence, holiday home or investment property in one of the most attractive areas of Apokoronas.
