Single-family detached house 35 m², Center, Zacharo

FOR SALE – SINGLE-LEVEL HOUSE OF 35 SQ.M. WITH 20 SQ.M. VERANDA ON A 2,349 SQ.M. PLOT ZACHARO CENTER (NEAR HIGH SCHOOL AREA)

PROPERTY FEATURES

In a highly privileged location near the Zacharo High School, just a 2-minute walk from the central square, a 35 sq.m. ground-floor residence with a 20 sq.m. covered veranda (traditional “chagiati”) is offered for sale within a 2,349 sq.m. olive grove. The property lies outside the town plan, is fully fenced, and surrounded by 70 productive olive trees in excellent condition. It includes a private water drilling system (well) with irrigation infrastructure serving the entire plot, ensuring complete autonomy and minimal maintenance costs. Built in 1998, it is a legally existing building — a major advantage, as new constructions are no longer permitted in similar off-plan plots due to environmental restrictions.

INTERIOR LAYOUT

The interior consists of a bright open-plan space combining living, sleeping, and kitchen areas. The property includes a bathroom with shower, water heater, wooden ceiling, and shuttered windows. The covered veranda (20 sq.m.) provides natural shade and can be used as an outdoor dining or relaxation area. The surrounding land is level and can be easily landscaped to create a garden, outdoor kitchen, or seating area, enhancing its character as a countryside retreat.

THE AREA – ZACHARO

The property is located very close to the center of Zacharo, in a quiet green area easily accessible on foot. Zacharo is one of the most dynamic areas of southern Ilia, combining traditional charm, natural beauty, and full infrastructure access. Its proximity to Kaiafas Lake and Thermal Springs makes it an attractive year-round destination.

LEGAL STATUS

The property has clear ownership titles and is legally existing prior to 2011. It is outside the town plan and has no additional building rights; however, the existence of a legal residence adds significant value, as new construction is now prohibited in most surrounding plots included in the NATURA 2000 environmental protection zone.

INVESTMENT VALUE AND POTENTIAL

This property holds strong investment potential due to its location, plot size, and legal standing. With renovation and light landscaping, it can be transformed into a charming holiday home with a private olive grove, a short-term rental unit (Airbnb), or a small-scale summer retreat. The well, the large flat plot, and the proximity to Zacharo center ensure long-term value appreciation. The scarcity of similar legally built properties outside the town plan makes this a rare and attractive opportunity.
