WELCOME TO GRIKOS HOUSE!
Ideally located just 20 meters from the beach, it won’t be easy to click out of holiday mode in this beautiful home.
Forbes magazine in 2009 voted Patmos as #1 out of "Europe's Most Idyllic Places To Live”.
ABOUT THE PROPERTY
The property is an independent house in a land of 2000 sqm next to the sea which creates a perfect environment away from distractions. Somewhere around the garden there is a hammock, which is ideal for those all important summer afternoon siestas! Or perhaps just to escape for an hour or two with a good book.
The house is one of the first houses built in Grikos bay and
it is at least 100 years old
GRIKOS BAY. A SERENE VILLAGE
Grikos bay is situated in the southeast of Patmos. It is approximately 4.5 km from the port in Skala.The road runs parallel to the coast making walking to and from Skala very beautifuland popular especially for joggers.
The bus stops by several times a day leaving you 50 meters from the beach.
There are taverns, a rent-a-bike with a cafe, hotels and apartments a kiosk and heaps of sand to lay your towel on.
Grikos is a popular settlement during the summer because it is quieter than most towns around the island, especially during high season. Its beach is the longest on the island with crystal clear waters and tamarisk trees for shade.
Tragonissi ("ram island") populated only by goats and a goat herder,faces the bay protecting it from bad weather (except SE winds) and making it perfect for yachts and boats to stop by or moor on the jetty that has a depth of 2 meters.
In great proximity is the beautiful beach of Petra with large white pebbles. At one end of the beach there is a bizarrely huge rock, "Petra" (that means stone in Greek), a true challenge for visitors that choose to climb on. The view from the rock is amazing.
