This plot for sale on Hydra Island Greece is 2000sqm in size and has a small, quaint ruined house on it of approximately 80sqm on one floor that will need to be rebuilt or possibly extended. The plot is within the town plan and so the 50:50 ratio of living space to land applies which means that you could buy the 2000sqm and build to a maximum of 1,000sqm of living space if you want to develop the site. Alternatively you could, with a minimum of expense, just rebuild the ruin in its current format which would give you a small house with a living room, kitchen, bathroom, dining room and master bedroom with a loft sleeping area (or storage space) set in a pretty garden.

The plot of real estate is situated at the top of Miaoulis Street which is a main road from the town to the area known as Kala Pigadi (good wells) close to the Goroyannis historical mansion. The land is mainly flat and is on a corner plot which is bordered on two sides by a wide road which gives access to the two municipality trucks. This means that transporting building material will be cheaper as you will use the trucks rather than donkeys.

To the side of the property there is a small church (not included in the sale) which is not used regularly although it does of course have a name day so once a year a service is held when the priest will lead a procession around the outside of the church. So access to a meter around the church must be given, but the land up to the meter surrounding the church is owned by the plot.

There is currently a chain fence bordering one side of the plot which is almost hidden by huge rocks and massive prickly pears. A dry stone wall and then the path, road and church border the back and other side with a path bordering the front with steps up to the property's front garden.

The views from this property are gorgeous and long. You don't see the sea but instead have spectacular back drops of the amphitheatre mountains and the Miaoulis and Kamini valleys to look at. Other properties are close by but not so close as to encroach on your privacy. The plot has a west facing aspect so catches the sunset nicely when looking forward and the rising sun hits the back of the property early.

From the town you take the level Miaoulis Road right to the property without having any steps to negotiate although you can take alternative routes which are slightly quicker but encounter some flights of steep steps if you're more energetic. Personally I can get from the town to the property in 10 minutes without being too out of breath.

Under the prickly pears in the garden there is a huge quantity of bolder sized rocks which I know are of the type that are quarried on Hydra to make houses. I am currently investigating whether it is possible and legal to have these rocks broken and dressed specifically for building which would mean that stone could be obtained from the site itself without having to be purchased. This would of course reduce the cost of building (although you would have to pay a stone mason to cut the rock). I will have details soon for anyone who enquires about this property.
