Sale - House Skiros - 700,000 €
Hidden in one of the most charming corners of Magazia in Skyros, just 20 meters from the beach and a short walk through a picturesque traditional stone alley, this remarkable historic residence offers a rare combination of authentic island architecture, privacy, and uninterrupted views of the Aegean Sea and the Castle of Skyros.
The property spans 200 sq.m. across two levels, set within a 300 sq.m. plot, enclosed by a traditional stone wall nearly 2.5 meters high, ensuring complete privacy while being only steps away from the vibrant seaside neighborhood of Magazia, known for its boutique hotels, cafés, traditional tavernas, and charming local shops.
Originally built around the 1700s as a fishermen’s storage building, the house carries a powerful sense of history and character. Its stone construction with walls 60–80 cm thick offers exceptional durability, natural insulation, and timeless beauty — a home designed to stand strong for centuries.
The residence was fully renovated in 2012, preserving its traditional identity while offering a flexible living layout.
