Tinos property description
Location: Tinos Island, Ag. Kyriaki area, Porto village.
Type of property: 3 maisonettes of 120 sq.m. each (side by side) built on
a plot of land of approx. 2.300 sq.m.
Description: each maisonette has a surface of 120 sq.m., in 2 levels of 60
sq.m. each. The lower level is composed of 2 bedrooms, W.C. and store room.
The upper level is composed of 1 bedroom, W.C., comfortable living room and
kitchen (separate rooms). As you can see in the photos, every house has its own
veranda with trellis and view to the front garden and the sea. Built only 5 years
ago (practically new), there’s no central heating as they were built for summer
use mainly. Only one of them has electrical heating. Of course, heating and/or
fireplace may be added by the buyer, if desired. The garden is in common and
there is also a barbecue in common in the front garden. The front garden is
about 800 sq.m. whereas the garden behind the houses is about 1.300 sq.m.
The view is unlimited and the plot in the right side of the property will never be built as the law changed and nothing can be built so close to the sea anymore. That's why we're talking about an exceptional occasion.
Distance from sea: 20 m.
Distance from port: less than 6 km.
Price: only 385.000€ for each maisonette (commission not included)
General Information on the Island of Tinos
Tinos is the third biggest island of the Cyclades, located between Andros and Mykonos islands. The population is about 10.000 spread in 50 villages.
Tinos is famous amongst Greeks for the Church of Panagia Evangelistria, its 20 or so windmills, about 1000 artistic dovecotes, 50 active villages and its Venetian fortifications at the mountain, Exobourgo. On Tinos, both Greek Orthodox and Roman Catholic populations co-exist, and the island is also well known for its famous sculptors and painters, such as Gyzis, Chalepas and Tsokles.
The Panagia Evangelistria church was built in 1823 in the capital of the island, at the exact place where the reputedly miraculous icon of Virgin Mary were discovered. Tinos is also the center of a yearly pilgrimage that takes place on the date of the Dormition of the Virgin Mary (August 15th, "Dekapentavgoustos" in Greek). This is perhaps the most notable and still active yearly pilgrimage in the region of the eastern Mediterranean. Many pilgrims make their way the 800 metres from the ferry wharf to the church on their hands and knees as sign of devotion. The day also commemorates the 1940 sinking of the Greek cruiser Elli by an Italian submarine on August 15th, 1940 at Tinos's harbor.
There are about 15 beaches to swim at, as well as archaeological sites, monasteries and churches to visit. The island is also known for its green marble, called Tinos Green.
You can reach the island by ferry boat and speed ferry, departing from Piraeus, Rafina and Lavrio ports. The travel time depends on the departing port and type of ferry. It takes from a minimum of 2 hours to a maximum of 5 hours to reach the island. There are three ports, one for passenger speed boats, and two for ferries and highspeed boats which carry passengers and cars to other ports, including Mykonos (35 min), Andros and Syros.
Gods selected Greece for their permanent residence. Why not you?
