Holiday Home Abroad and Action Constructing are pleased to announce the launch of Loutra Haven, the 2nd exclusive off plan development in Loutra on the Greek island of Crete. Occupying a location 2km from the beach and within close proximity to the commercial centre of Rethymnon, Loutra Haven is an ideal investment property in Crete.
In addition to high capital growth, projected at 15% per annum, Loutra Haven offers superb rental potential as it appeals to both residents and holiday makers. Its convenient location in a tranquil area close to the traditional village of Loutra set in extensive olive groves and overlooking the sea, while still enjoying easy access to the cosmopolitan town of Rethymnon makes the accommodation incredibly marketable - helping to sustain high rental yields and growing capital appreciation. In order to facilitate the commercial value of property in Loutra Haven each one has been designed to conform to the Greek National Tourist Organisation criteria making it possible to apply for the appropriate licence known as the EOT licence.
In the nearby village of Loutra itself houses that were first built by the Venetians during their occupation of Crete have been preserved and are inhabited until this day and there is a typically Cretan historical atmosphere present in the cobbled streets and village square which displays huge millstones from the old olive oil press that once produced oil using traditional methods. There is a bakery just a short stroll from Loutra Haven which still makes traditional breads and pastries whose enticing smell greets passers by each morning. The locals are very friendly and proud of their cultural heritage which they take every opportunity to share with their visitors. The area boasts a couple of noteworthy tavernas where the local cuisine can be sampled as well as nearby shops selling basic amenities.
There are several places of interest within easy access of Loutra Haven not least of course the famous Arkadi Monastery and it is an excellent base from which to explore the many cultural and historical sights as well as the natural beauty that Crete has to offer.
Loutra Haven offers something unique through its combination of desirable location, attractive architecture and some of the finest quality finishes, delivering an idyllic project which is clearly distinguishable from its contemporaries. A stone boundary wall encloses Loutra Haven and each house has been individually designed with respect to the traditional Cretan architectural style which is famous for its use of stone, wood beam ceilings and natural rustic colours. Planted gardens and tiled patio areas have been designed to allow purchasers to take advantage of the many hours of sunshine that Crete enjoys and Loutra Haven promises to afford the exclusive tranquillity of village life combined with the assurance of a modern estate developed with respect for its rural position.
Purchasers can choose from luxury two bedroom apartments, two storey maisonettes and 2 or 3 bedroom villas with prices starting from £112,000. All properties are to be built to the highest specifications and will include many features as standard including top notch insulation methods making them perfect for year round living, double glazed windows and doors in coloured aluminium frames, central heating systems and pre installation for satellite TV and air conditioning. Back up water tanks and pumps mean that Crete's sometimes erratic water supply won't effect residents in Loutra Haven. The houses have been carefully positioned within the development to ensure that each one has a view of the beautiful sea and mountainscape. Loutra Haven comprises 5 separate sections each with 4 apartments and 2 maisonettes or detached villas totalling 30 properties in Loutra Haven as a whole. Each section will have a large communal swimming pool of approx. 36sqm and extensive communal gardens. These communal areas will be maintained by a local property maintenance company for highly competitive rates and the ground floor properties will have some extra private garden areas.
Holiday Home Aboard and Action Constructing’s commitment to their customer-driven strategy is nowhere more evident than in their latest project Loutra Haven which satisfies the demand for proximity to the beach in a rural setting typical to Crete while at the same time affording easy access to traditional local shops and amenities.
