''Minos'' Maisonette House overlooking the Minoan Palace of Knossos !!

The house is situated on the beautiful suburb of Knossos, in a unique area with a fantastic view over the archaeological site of Knossos, and it is only 200 meters far from the main entrance of the Minoan Palace !!! Knossos is 5 kilometers away from the city center and 6 km. from the harbor and the airport of Heraklion.It is a city of 150.000 inhabitants with all kinds of shops,Cafes, Restaurants and a lot of historical and interesting places.
There is a public transportation to Heraklion every 5 min. in summer and every 15 min. in winter. In the area, there are a lot of shops, restaurants, super markets and the Hospital is only 900 meters away!
My House is an excellent choose for families, group of friends, friendly couples and for all of those who love nature, long walks, calm and tranquility and want to be away from the noise of the city. In addition, I would consider it as a perfect location for some one to start explore and discover the East and South region of Crete on daily trips by a car as well as to discover all ruins in the vicinity of Knossos and to visit the high lights and the impressive archaeological museums of Heraklion city.
The most known beaches of the area such as, Amoudara, Karteros, and Amnissos are 6, 7 and 8 km accordingly, away from the premise!
The house has been recently renovated in a modern contemporary style!! It has its own small yard with trees, flowers and a relaxing area. It extends in two levels in 110 sq.m and includes: On the ground floor there are a fully equipped kitchen ,a comfortable living area with fireplace and a dinning area, the main bedroom and a spacious and comfortable bathroom with a bath tub.
On the upper level there are an office area with a balcony overlooking the Main entrance of the Palace and the antiquities, two bedrooms one with double bed and the other with a singe bed, as well as a W.C .
The landscape of the area of Knossos, with its mild and beautiful green hills covered all with olive trees and vineyards create a unique environment and gives a special aura and feeling of calm and tranquility! Only if you stay in Knossos you can experience it and get the feeling! That can be a reason for the Minoans to establish in the area and built the Palace of their kings in the area , and to create the great Minoan civilization 2000 years b.c !!
