Exclusive country house for sale in Kournas, Chania, Crete

Villa Aloni was built in 2006 from local honey coloured stone incorporating authentic Cretan arches, exposed rustic wooden beams and all modern amenities to provide the luxury and comfort you would expect from a house of this calibre. GROUND FLOOR ENTRANCE Entering Villa Aloni on the ground floor you’ll immediately recognise something truly special, from the ancient circular stone threshing floor beneath your feet that gives the house it’s name, to the grand crystal chandelier above your head in the double height entrance hall. From the entrance hall, large and tastefully designed hardwood French doors open into the impressive open plan kitchen diner and living room with its magnificent stone carved fireplace. The nicely fitted kitchen comes with modern appliances and a fabulous 10 seat country kitchen dining table and chairs.From the ground floor living space you can access out to the large full length veranda via 3 double glazed hardwood French doors, giving one fabulous pool, sea and mountain views There is also a side door entrance/ exit from the kitchen to the garden. This level floor is tastefully tiled throughout. – LOWER GROUND FLOOR- The villa is designed to provide two levels that can be independent of each other should privacy require it. Three of the villa’s 5 bedrooms are located on this floor; one of these bedrooms has a en-suite bathroom and walk through rain shower with another two comfortable double bedrooms sharing a en-suite Jack & Jill bathroom. Two of the bedrooms on this level have direct access, via double glazed French doors, to the garden, pool and surrounding terraces. There is another well equipped kitchen with appliances on this level and a utility room which houses two washing machines – very useful if the house is being shared by two families who want some independence. This level floor is tastefully tiled throughout. – FIRST FLOOR – While the ground and lower ground floors are covered in natural cream colour tiling, the first level floor has polished wooden floors adorned with rugs throughout. The two master bedroom suites that are both en-suite are located on this level. There is also a comfortable and spacious sitting and library area between the two bedrooms. One of these suites has a double sleigh type bed and the other has two large double beds. Both suites have fully equipped en-suite bathrooms and walk in wardrobes. Both rooms have double glazed French doors opening on to the upper veranda that spans the whole length of the house. The views from this first floor veranda are as impressive as the views from the ground floor veranda. The thick stone walls keep the house cool and airy in summer and thus only the 5 bedrooms are air-conditioned. Underfloor heating and radiators throughout mean that Aloni House is comfortable even in the cooler months.
