Rural building plot near Agios Nikolaos and beaches

Rural building land, 1123 m2 in size, nicely positioned on the slope of a hill, inside the village boundaries of Marnelides, only a few minutes drive to the coastal town of Agios Nikolaos and the lovely beaches of the area.

It enjoys very nice, unobstructed views of the valley and the surrounding hills and mountains.

It has the planning permission (allowance) for a house or houses of up to 400 m2, built on one or two floors, plus basement and attic.
Enough space would be left to make swimming pool(s), open or covered terraces, pergolas, parking space, garden, etc.

The plot has asphalt road access and services like water and electricity supply, phone and internet lines are available on the spot.

Less than a 10-minute drive from Agios Nikolaos and several organized sandy beaches
and not more than 50 minutes from the international airport of Heraklion.

Agios Nikolaos is the capital of the county Lasithi and is located at the Mirabello Bay, north-east Crete, only 40 mins away from the international airport of Heraklion.
Geographically the town is well protected from strong winds allowing sea sports and swimming nearly all year round.
Although Agios Nikolaos has a population of less than 20,000 it has several banks, supermarkets, shops of every kind, doctors, a modern hospital of high standard, public swimming pool and tennis courts, yacht marina, harbour, cinema, theatre, gyms, a 9-hole golf course, schools ranging from nurseries to 6-level high school and generally all the amenities you would expect to find in a modern European town.
The microclimate is one of the best in Greece and the moderate temperatures rarely exceed 30c in summer or fall below 15c in wintertime. This wonderful dry climate together with the natural beauty of the area has attracted most of the high class hotels of Greece to operate here.
