A great little place in a very popular neighborhood of Chania. Splatzia, the former Ottoman part of the city has retained some of the charm of the old days, with many of the small winding alleys still lined with the old houses of that era. Today most of them have been turned into short term rentals.

This house is another example of property that can be turned into an Airbnb star. Its location, right next to some of the best eateries, recently rebuilt boutique hotels, and full of character restaurants of Splatzia, like “Ginger concept” and “The Well of the Turk”, its proximity to the charming square of Splatzia filled with cafes, and bars, to the old Venetian port and the pedestrianized streets behind the Old Agora, give the property and the new owner of it a great head start compared to other short term rentals of the city.

The house itself is divided into two parts and an inner courtyard that connects them. The front entrance takes us inside the courtyard. To the left the one of the two parts of the house, a room spacious that an be turned into an independent studio. To the back of the courtyard, the two level part of the house. The ground level is divided into rooms and so is the upper level, that can be accessed by a stone staircase on the outside of the house. A large terrace ideal for an outdoor living room where one can enjoy a tea or a breakfast in the morning.

The house does need work but if this is done in a proper way, then this house is a safe investment that work as long-term stream of revenue for the future owner.
