A place where nature invites you to invest in serenity.
In the heart of the Heraklion prefecture and of the island of Crete, in a nest of unspoiled nature, lies a rare 25,496 m² plot—a land where time seems to pause and the landscape whispers possibilities.
The plot is a regular parallelogram (rectangle) with around 250 meters of frontage to the local motorway. It is overseeing long unhindered views of valleys and hilltops with olive groves and vineyards. During the night, one can count more than 10 villages in the long distance and millions of stars above.
Located in one of Crete’s most authentic and untouched mainland areas, it is away from the overdeveloped and crowded touristic hotspots, while it remains well connected and accessible to all major points of interest, perfectly combining seclusion with accessibility. The location is around 25-30 klms and less than 30min. driving distance from a) the northern coast and highway of the island, b) the vibrant city of Heraklion (harbor and airport), c) the new international airport at Kastelli, d) the southern coast and road axis that connects the island in the south from west to east. Currently the plot is planted with around 1.000 olive trees, while it is equipped with water and electricity, making it ready for immediate development.
The plot lies in the outskirts of the tranquil village of Amourgeles, home to a hidden natural gem: a man-made reservoir that serves as a habitat for wild birds, complete with a birdwatching observatory. Here, nature becomes spectacle, silence becomes sound, and visitors become soulful travelers.
Rooted in natural beauty, unspoiled by light and sound pollution, this property is looking ahead to visionary projects in sustainable tourism, year around. Eco or agrotourism, star-gazing and astrotourism, thematic parks, summer schools, wellness or luxury glamping and residencies—whatever your dream may be, the land is ready to embrace it. The scenery offers a rare harmony: earthy tones, the scent of thyme and sage carried on the breeze, and a silence that soothes rather than weighs. This plot is not merely a property—it is an opportunity to create, to respect, to renew.
A place waiting for your story to unfold upon it.
