Private Internal Garden

The sheltered internal garden is one of the property’s most distinctive features. It has its own external entrance from the village lane and a second private entrance leading directly into the house.

This dual-access arrangement allows the garden to function as a secluded extension of the living space. With appropriate landscaping, it could become a planted courtyard, outdoor dining area or peaceful private retreat.

A comparison between the stated plot area of 67.21 m² and the ground-floor footprint of 50.81 m² indicates an approximate uncovered area of 16.40 m².

A balcony extends along part of the upper floor and serves two of the bedrooms, providing direct access to outdoor space. From this level, the property enjoys views across the surrounding traditional rooftops towards Samos Town and the Aegean Sea.

The first floor offers the potential to become a comfortable private sleeping level while retaining the proportions and character of the original house.

Balcony Serving Two Bedrooms

The upper-floor balcony connects directly with two bedrooms and adds valuable outdoor living space to the property.

Framed by traditional shutters and overlooking the historic neighbourhood, the balcony offers a distinctive setting from which to enjoy the surrounding architecture, tiled rooftops and views towards the sea.

Traditional Samos Architecture

The property retains the recognisable form of a traditional Samos village house. Its exterior features timber shutters, tiled rooflines and a façade shaped by the narrow historic lanes of Pano Vathi.

Inside, the wooden ceilings and floors, a traditional staircase, tall openings and well-proportioned rooms with natural light.

These original elements give the house a strong architectural identity and provide an appealing foundation for buyers wishing to combine contemporary comfort with authentic island character.

Sea Views over Samos Town

Thanks to its elevated position, the house enjoys an outlook across the rooftops of Samos Town towards the harbour and the Aegean Sea.

The view varies between the rooms, windows and balcony, with the upper floor providing the property’s most open outlook.
