Features and description
Olympia Heritage Estate
Olympia Heritage Estate sits on 18,000 sqm of hillside outside Krestena, in the Ilia countryside, a short drive from Ancient Olympia. At its centre stands a stone residence of around 130 years, a house with real history behind its walls. It once belonged to celebrated Greek soprano Alexandra Trianti, and during her years here it welcomed well-known figures from Greek public life, such as Aristotle Onassis.The main house of 104 sqm is arranged on a single floor, with two bedrooms, a bathroom, a kitchen, and a spacious living and dining room anchored by a fireplace. Its stone walls and unhurried atmosphere carry the character of another era, while a 2008 renovation keeps it comfortable and ready to use.Fifty metres from the main house stand two independent guest houses, 63 sqm in total, each with its own bathroom. They give the estate flexibility: Room for extended family and friends, or self-contained accommodation to let. The property is sold fully furnished and equipped, from the living-room and kitchen furnishings down to the smaller details, so a new owner can settle in from the first day.The 18,000 sqm plot is the estate& 039 s defining feature. Olive, cypress, plane, and pine fill the land, along with lemon and orange trees, rosemary, lavender, and oleander that scent the air and mark out quiet corners for sitting, dining, or watching the light change over the wooded hills. The grounds around the house are made for slow mornings and long evenings under the stars, with open mountain views and no near neighbours to disturb the calm.Rental potentialThe estate has already been let on a short-term basis, and the two independent guest houses give it clear flexibility for the future. The Ilia countryside and its closeness to Ancient Olympia draw visitors through a long spring-to-autumn season, and local management companies can handle the letting and upkeep on your behalf.LocationKrestena is a small inland town in Ilia, set among olive groves and open farmland, a natural crossroads between Ancient Olympia, the coast, and the town of Pyrgos. Ancient Olympia, the birthplace of the Olympic Games, is a short drive away. The thermal springs and pine-backed beach at Lake Kaiafas lie about 6 km to the southwest, and the beaches of Samiko, Kakovatos, and Zacharo are within easy reach for summer days by the sea. The wider area offers Ancient Elis (alternative spelling for Ilia), the Temple of Apollo Epicurius at Bassae, the Byzantine Philosophou Monastery, and the Neda river with its waterfalls and trails.
