Elias House

An idyllic village house in Palia Alonnisos

You will find Elias House on the Greek island of Alonnisos (Northern Sporadic islands).

Elias House is an old traditional Greek house with a large patio full of flowers and trees. It is situated in a quiet neighbourhood on the southeastern slope of the old village, Palia Alonnisos and with a lovely view of the village and the sea.

The house was built in the 1920s by the grandfather of Elias Tsoukanas, the owner of the house. Elias has restored the house keeping all the atmosphere of an old, village house, but giving the comfort of modern life. The 65m2 (inside measurement) house is on two floors and includes also a small annex.

You can rent this house on a weekly basis during all the summer season.
