Description.
(All dimensions in metres, and approximate)
This property is set in a steeply sloping, south facing plot on the edge of the village of Xinovrisi, some 6 kms from Arghalasti,
and just 4 kms from the superb Aegean beach of Potistica.
From the main entrance stone pathways, or a set of stone steps, lead down to the inner paved terrace, much of which is shaded
by an evergreen trellis, and is thus completely protected from outside view. The main house, and various outbuildings, are
situated on this level.
Built some 80 years ago of local stone and in traditional Pelion style, the external walls, 70 to 80 cms thick, are fully
rendered with a cement mortar, while the tiled roof was completely renovated some years ago. All external doors and windows
have been replaced, and all the windows are double-glazed. In addition, both external and internal shutters have been fitted,
and also insect screens on all windows and external doors. Finally, all four walls have been insulated internally.

The house is centrally heated using LNG, and all rooms are fitted with one or more radiators.
In the event of a power failure during the winter, there is provision for a generator to power the central heating pumps.
In all rooms there are built-in cupboards and drawers, so there is ample storage space.
