This delightful stone walled traditional village house has recently been lovingly renovated and refurbished by its architect owner. The quality of restoration and its many traditional features must be seen to be appreciated. Located in a quiet lane in the old village where cars are not permitted the property enjoys stunning sea and outer island views from the first floor balcony.

The house is entered through a wooden front door that opens in to a small hall way. To the left is the ground floor bedroom with solid timbered ceilings supported by massive wood beams. The stone floor is on two levels and a traditional open Alonissos fireplace is a feature of this room. A wooden door leads in to the ground floor w.c./shower room. From the hallway a wrought iron spiral staircase leads to the first floor which comprises a spacious living room with fully fitted open plan kitchen area, French doors give access to a balcony with wonderful village and sea views. Next to the kitchen area is a wooden staircase that leads up to a mezzanine floor. This area can be used as a second sleeping area. Both the living room and mezzanine area benefit from a high wood beamed ceiling. A Velux window in the ceiling provides plenty of light. There is also a second w.c./shower room.

The nearest beaches are at Megalos Mourtias and Mikro Mourtias. Megalos Mourtias is a favourite among the inhabitants of the Old Village, as they can walk down to it using a signed footpath in about 15-20 minutes. It is also highly accessible by car and/or motorbike - approx 5 minutes.

The beach is covered with smooth white pebbles. In the sea you will find silky smooth sand. There is a gentle slope, the water gradually getting deeper. You can find shade under the beach umbrellas or under the olive trees that grow a few meters away from the sea…

There are 2 tavernas on the beach and a third on the road just a few metres from the beach. All sell fresh fish and traditionally Greek food.

Contrary to its busy ‘Big brother’ the beach of Mikros Mourtias is a quiet beach with no facilities. The pebble beach is relatively small; there is a big patch of fine sand in the sea. The beach is encircled with rocky cliffs, creating breathtaking scenery. At the back of the beach are old olive trees where you can find good shade.

On its right end there is an old abandoned building that was once used by people living in the Old Village, when they wanted to visit the island of Skopelos.

Being so quiet and relatively isolated, the beach is sometimes proffered by nudists. It is also very likely that when visiting you might be the only people there, so it really feels sometimes like it is your own private beach!!!

The water at both beaches is crystal clear with a beautiful silky blue colour. In order to get the most out of your visit in any of the beaches in Alonissos, it is a good idea to bring a mask and a snorkel, so that you can enjoy the underwater beauty and colour display. Even those that are not snorkel enthusiasts should be prepared to be dazzled by the beauty of the underwater scenery of Alonissos.

This house would be ideal as a holiday or retirement home for 2 people. The mezzanine area provides ample space to accommodate your guests and maintenance costs should be very low.

A choice of tavernas, supermarket and shops are within a 3 minute walk.
