Hidden away in a quiet cul de sac in this pretty village, you cannot help but fall in love with this charming newly renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom village cottage with courtyard garden.

Ground Floor: through the courtyard garden, from the covered terrace, you enter the spacious kitchen/dining room. To the left is the custom made, fitted kitchen and opposite is the dining area easily accommodating 6 people.

Down a step, under an original wood lintel and reclaimed stone doorway you come into the lounge area with a workspace as well as cosy seating area around the open fireplace.

1st Floor: the curved wooden staircase in the lounge takes you to a small hallway with 2 double bedrooms. There are reclaimed wooden floors throughout this floor.

The master bedroom has a double bed and en suite bathroom with walk in Italian style shower and sensor touch lighted mirror. Patio doors leads to a covered balcony overlooking the courtyard garden, village and mountains, ideal for sunbathing or for a quiet place to relax and read.

The second bedroom has two single beds and an en suite bathroom, fitted as the en suite off the master bedroom.

Outside: a tall wrought iron gate from the lane opens to a private high walled courtyard garden with the lemon tree the cottage was named for, and a large, covered area close to the house with an outdoor dining area.

This description cannot do justice to the incredible level of quality and detail given from the start to the finish of this total renovation.  The owners have sourced every item with incredible care and attention, finding unique or vintage items from the curtain rails to the lamps, the vintage chairs to the soft furnishings, creating the most stylish of properties. Re using where possible original materials and furniture, the cottage is full of character features such exposed stone door frames, wooden floors and craftsmen made hardwood doors and windows.

Location: The cottage sits in a quiet residential neighbourhood with a friendly mix of locals and some foreigners and has a taverna and a mini market/café open all year round.

A large oak forest close by provides wonderful walks and the bigger village of Vamos with all amenities including bus station, school, bank and 24-hour health centre is a 5-minute drive or an easy cycle.

The beaches of Almyrida or Kalives are approx. 10 minutes’ drive away. Turquoise cove is also approx.10 minutes’ drive away. The 12 km sandy beach of Georgiopoulis s approx. 15 minutes’ drive.
