Description
Apartment for sale in Dikastiria Chania. Positioned just 70 meters from Dikastiria Square, in one of the most central and consistently in-demand locations of the city, this 130 sq.m. whole-floor penthouse apartment offers space, privacy, and long-term value within a rare low-density residential building.
The apartment occupies the top (2nd) floor of a three-level building constructed in 1970, featuring only one residence per level (ground floor, 1st, and 2nd floor). This layout creates a quieter, more private living environment compared to typical city-center apartment blocks.
Internally, the residence unfolds into bright and generous living spaces. Upon entering, you are welcomed by a luminous sitting area with direct access to a balcony, seamlessly connected to a separate living room and dining area with a fireplace — a layout that naturally supports both everyday living and entertaining.
The kitchen is independent and fully renovated, offering functionality and practicality for daily use.
The sleeping area includes two comfortable bedrooms with wooden flooring, both featuring balcony doors that open onto a large front-facing balcony, allowing abundant natural light and a sense of openness throughout the space.
The bathroom is set on a slightly elevated level, accessed via two steps, adding a subtle architectural distinction to the interior layout.
Externally, the property is part of a building developed on a 210 sq.m. plot, while it also benefits from a 90 sq.m. basement storage area held in undivided ownership (ex indiviso) with the other apartments.
It is important to note that the building does not have an elevator, central heating, solar water heater, or private parking. However, what it lacks in these elements, it more than compensates for with its size, location, and the rarity of a whole-floor residence in such a central position.
The Dikastiria area is one of the most functional and established parts of the city, offering immediate walking access to public services, retail, cafes, and everyday amenities — a location that supports both quality of life and long-term investment stability.
This is not just an apartment.
It is a spacious urban residence with strong fundamentals — ideal for personal use, professional conversion, or repositioning into a high-demand city asset.
Apartment for sale in Dikastiria Chania. Location Information:
Chania is considered to be the most poetic city of Crete; when you walk through it, it leaves you with a pleasant taste of beauty. Chania’s Venetian port, picturesque at any time and season, is attractive to visitors and locals for its beauty and for its choices of entertainment for all tastes and demands.
The “Old Town” consists of the old Venetian harbour and the small Venetian blocks located behind the harbour; it is characterized by narrow and picturesque alleys – similar to an enchanting labyrinth – full of life, and the plentiful remaining Venetian and Turkish buildings.
The Lighthouse, the Fortress of Firka, the Mosque of Kioutsouk Hasan, the Great Arsenali, and the Neoria have become landmarks of the city. Most of the buildings are rejuvenated and they compose a puzzle of contemporary, Venetian, and Turkish architecture; they are also a ‘living’ exhibition of the city’s history. Today they work as shops, taverns, cafes, and touristic accommodations.
The most famous part of the Old Town is the lively round waterfront along the Venetian harbour, which is full of small hotels, cafes, restaurants, taverns, and bars. The Lighthouse at the end of the harbour is a landmark of Chania.
