REAL ESTATE FOR SALE (OFF-PLAN) (€ Euro 223,000)
Villa - House for sale in Zakynthos Zakynthos-Zante Ionian Islands Greece

A project of 19 villas, just outside the busy centre of Laganas, and 1 km from the long, wide sandy beach. Each villa, a choice of 2 or 3 bed, benefits from fully fitted kitchens and bathrooms, air conditioning and large balconies. In the grounds one can relax around the private swimming pool, ideal for those who prefer a quieter, more relaxing holiday. Of course, for the more lively at heart, Laganas’ lively night life and wonderful beach is just a 10 minute walk away.

Situated on the south coast, Laganas is the liveliest town on the island, with many restaurants, bars and night clubs open until late. And after a fun night you can relax on the 5 mile long beach, one of the best in Zante, and swim in the safe, shallow waters of the Gulf of Laganas. Away from the “golden mile” of music and dance there is still plenty of space for families who prefer a quieter setting. Laganas is, after all, the largest breeding ground in Europe for the protected loggerhead turtle.

Zante, or Zakynthos as the Greeks know it, is the most southerly of the Ionian islands which are undoubtedly the most beautiful and greenest of them all. They are also the closest to the UK with flight times of approx. 3 hours. Greece has severely lagged behind the more traditional hotspots of Spain, France and Cyprus with regard to property development and investment but is determined to follow suit. Bureaucracy was one of the biggest stumbling blocks but as this becomes increasingly easier Greece is fast becoming the next Mediterranean hotspot. Fortunately the authorities have put in place very strict planning regulations to avoid the density of build prevalent in Spain, in particular. This combined with limited available building land ensures that demand will outstrip supply and with ever increasing numbers preferring self catering holidays the demand for quality villas in quality locations is growing year on year.
