Traditional stone-built house with view in Mani, Messinia

A traditional stone-built house, originally constructed in the early 1900s and fully reconstructed in 2000 with great respect for the authentic architecture and materials of Mani. The property is set in a peaceful location, offering open, unobstructed views of the Messinian Gulf and the surrounding mountains. The plot has a total area of 512 sq.m., while the residence extends over two levels with a total living area of 140 sq.m. The upper floor features three bedrooms, and the ground floor consists of a spacious open-plan living room and kitchen, maintaining the simplicity and authenticity of traditional Mani architecture. The bathroom and laundry room are located separately, adjacent to the main building. A large veranda offers breathtaking sea and mountain views — the perfect spot for relaxation — while stone-paved paths lead through the property’s lush gardens filled with trees and Mediterranean plants. The house also includes a 20,000-liter water cistern for rainwater collection, used for irrigation throughout the garden. Next to the house runs a beautifully preserved old cobblestone path (kalderimi) that leads to the picturesque villages of Platsa and Pigi, adding a touch of local history and charm to the property. There is also an additional building allowance of 60 sq.m., which can be utilized according to the new owner’s needs — for a guesthouse, studio, or extension of the existing residence. This is a unique property that combines privacy, authenticity, and a truly alternative lifestyle — ideal for those seeking peace, nature, and an inspiring view in the heart of the traditional Mani landscape.
