Build Your Private Sea-View Villa in South Crete – Valid Permit Included Location: Agios Georgios

Description

Discover a rare opportunity to build a private sea-view villa or small boutique hotel in one of the most unspoiled areas of South Crete. The Grove Crete project comes with a fully issued and valid building permit—one of the last permits granted in the region due to recent changes in Greek building law. This makes the project exceptionally valuable: buyers avoid the long waiting times, uncertainties, and shifting regulations that currently make new permits difficult to obtain. The property is based on an award-winning, Passive House–designed concept. It enjoys a permanently unobstructed panoramic view over the Libyan Sea. Because of the land’s topography and protected surroundings, no construction can ever rise in front of it. The setting is quiet and deeply relaxing, with nothing but the soft sound of the sea, the wind, and—one day—your pool. While the architectural concept and main structural parameters are already approved, the project still allows full freedom to make it your own. Buyers can choose materials, colours, finishes, interior style, and landscaping, shaping the villa according to their personal vision—without the stress of navigating the Greek permitting system. Located nearby some of South Crete’s most beautiful beaches such as Prasonissi, Agios Pavlos and Triopetra, the plot combines privacy with easy access to nature, swimming coves, tavernas, and scenic walking paths. Whether you envision a serene private home or a boutique-style luxury retreat for family, friends, or paying guests, this ready-to-build project offers a secure and flexible foundation. A unique blend of legal certainty, design freedom, and breathtaking natural beauty—a combination that is almost impossible to find in today’s market.
