Seafront 4,202 m² Plot of Land for Sale in Maleme, Platanias

About this property

Set in Maleme, in the wider area of Chania, this piece of land is offered for sale, just 1 metres from the sea. With roughly 4,202 m² of land, the site gives real flexibility for its future use. The water's edge is literally steps away. Walkers, swimmers and cyclists will find their routine easily here; the landscape invites you outside all year round.

For families, the area offers schools, playgrounds and a safe, community-minded environment where neighbours still know each other. Remote working is well supported, with fibre connections reaching most of the area and cafés happy to host a laptop for a morning. About the area: The old town of Chania, with its lighthouse and harbour front, is one of the most photographed spots in the Mediterranean. Life in the Chania countryside moves at the unhurried pace of olive groves and village kafeneia, yet the city's restaurants, schools and hospital are within easy reach.

The area enjoys a long season from April to November, an international airport with direct flights across Europe, and a well-established market for holiday rentals. Chania is widely considered the most beautiful prefecture of Crete, famous for its Venetian harbour town, exotic beaches such as Balos, Elafonissi and Falassarna, and the dramatic White Mountains. The south coast of the prefecture hides some of the most unspoilt beaches in Greece, reachable through gorges and coastal paths. The combination of location and specification positions the property well for capital preservation, with rental income as a realistic option when not in personal use.

Running costs remain reasonable for the category, and professional management is available locally for owners who spend part of the year abroad.
