Overview
Description
Set on 16,875 m² of land, this property offers an excellent opportunity for a private villa development in Corfu. A portion of the land is forest-designated, while the remaining area allows for construction of up to approximately 292 m². With a valid building permit already in place, buyers can move forward without delay or redesign the project within the approved limits.
The existing permit includes a main residence, basement, and additional facilities, such as an outdoor W.C. and a room for pool machinery. The plans are efficiently designed, offering a well-balanced layout with slightly more usable space than the declared total.
Electricity connection is available close to the plot and can be completed with minor internal works. The property remains unconnected for now to avoid unnecessary standing charges, giving future owners control over when to initiate installation and construction.
