Note regarding the village-

A peaceful picturesque village which has a wonderful mix of expats and locals. After alot of Cretans moved away from the village in the 70’s for work opportunities, a group of expats began in the 90’s to purchase properties and renovate them. The group always kept in mind to make sure the restorations were in the traditional village style. Further to this, locals began to return and reconstruct their own properties which brought life back into the village.  To this day, the village keeps intact the calm and tranquility it always had. Local activities revert around the 1 taverna, farmers tending their vineyards and olive trees or residents enjoying the peace and quiet. Many beautiful walks can be experienced around the area, the famous E4 trekking path passes by. Cooler in summers and green all year around thanks to the Tripti Mountain water springs just behind the village, Agios Ioannis is a true gate to discover the breathtaking Cretan inland while being minutes away to all the beaches available and all year around alive Ierapetra. It’s like being away from the buzzing world but just few minutes away all you might need.

This is a great investment opportunity for rental or use as a large family home with plenty of space and privacy for guests and friends to stay, with always the possibility to rent each house independently when not used.
