THE
KAMINIA PROPERTY
set
on approx. 650 m2 (7,000 sq.f.t) of ground with a main house
and detached guest studio offering in total 450 m2 (4,840 sq.ft.)
built living space including terraces and small pool - property is built
over four levels up a hill side with garden - the house is built in
simple traditional island style and therefore offers great flexibility
for re-arranging according to your personal taste.
WIDELY
CONSIDERED TO HAVE THE BEST VIEW ON THE ISLAND
the house has a long sweeping terrace offerng an unobstructed panorama
over the Aegean sea and islands.
the property originated
as a family home built on the ruins of an old 19th century house - it was
later converted to operate as a private pension for a period - but now
the original owners have it as a family home again. The main house has
8 bedrooms and 8 small ensuite bathrooms (w.c. , shower, toilet) plus a
large liveable attic with its own shower, w.c. and toilet installed (needs
arranging). The independent guest accommodation can house a further two
persons in a studio with kitchenette and separate bathroom. In total, the
current layout can accommodate 14 people reasonably in 5 double and 4 single
bedrooms. Alternatively, rooms could be used as offices and creative work
spaces - the present owners have a large internet work station. Conversion
to a holistic healing centre was one project recently proposed by a Swedish
interest due to the special peace and beauty of the location.
