Property Description
Dating back to 1899 this grand old town house has been lovingly restored to the excellent condition in which it now stands. It has been renovated in keeping with the neoclassical style and strict standards required for a listed building but benefits from modern touches such as central heating, thermal insulation and under floor air conditioning. The thick stone walls help to keep the house naturally cool during the summer months.
One of the special features of the property is the private, enclosed courtyard with garden and kitchen area. A deceptive hideaway that shelters you from the hustle and bustle of city dwelling.
The front entrance leads into a hallway which branches off into a bright and comfortable living area with dining space To the right is a cosy, extensive, library with wall to wall shelving full of books. The classical, double doors are wood as are all the windows and shutters. The sunny and bright kitchen leads on from the library where family meet and breakfast together. An authentic, wooden staircase heads up to the upper floor where three bedrooms and a generous sized bathroom are located. The bathroom is in a timeless white and blue with ceramic fixtures and tiles.
Characteristic, wood flooring gives a warm and natural ambience upstairs whilst traditional tiling sets the style downstairs.
Located in an old section of the town, it is easy to access the harbour, beach and cosmopolitan designer shops.
A graceful property, ideal for those who enjoy living in the heart of the city.

Besides the omnipresent sun and sea, the first thing that strikes the visitor to Rhodes is its strong oriental influence and charm. The island’s remote location on the south-eastern edge of Europe and its rich multicultural heritage have shaped a precious identity. This is evident in the medieval city of Rhodes, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. There, side-by-side or only a stone’s throw apart, you can see a Greek Orthodox or Catholic church, a synagogue, a mosque, and an ancient temple.
This architectural heritage complements and enhances the natural beauty of Rhodes. There are very few islands in the Mediterranean with such a diverse and amazing countryside in such a relatively small area. Just a few kilometers away from untouched beaches with emerald waters, the visitor can experience spectacular pinewood forests at high altitudes. Remote parts of those areas are rich with wildlife including the fallow deer (dams dama) indigenous to the island since antiquity.
Along with its natural beauty, Rhodes’ healthy climate has been known since ancient times, with historic reports mentioning the healing qualities of the island’s weather and its waters. It comes as no surprise that so many visitors return to the island every year. And many of the them have chosen Rhodes for their second homes, or have come to live here permanently.
In a place where family, community values and traditions are considered important, daily life is a pleasant experience. The warmth of the islanders and their relaxed pace of life are contagious. Neighbours will smile and say hello to a passerby in the street, even a stranger, offering whatever they may hold in their hands, be it fruit, bread, olive oil or sometimes even ouzo.
Its international airport makes Rhodes accessible from all major European cities, so the island is ideal for a second or relocation home. Both seafront luxury villas and splendid historic houses come at prices not found anywhere else.
