Mediterranean paradise 200 meters from the beach: villas with a pool in Polyhrono (Halkidiki)
Location: Greece, Halkidiki region, Kassandra peninsula, the town of Polyhrono. This is not just a "village by the sea" — it's one of the most sought-after tourist centers in Northern Greece. Polyhrono is famous for its long sandy beach with turquoise water, cozy tavernas, and a relaxed yet lively rhythm of life. Unlike overcrowded resorts like Kallithea, here you'll find an authentic Greek atmosphere. The villas are located just 200 meters from the shoreline: you can walk to the sea for your morning swim, avoiding traffic and parking hassles.
About the property: A new modern complex of townhouses (type "Cottage") with a total area of 161 m². Each villa is a three-level space with its own private pool — a feature typically found only in the premium segment in Halkidiki. The layout is ideal for family living and rental investment. On the ground floor — a living room combined with a kitchen, direct access to the pool area, and a guest bathroom. On the second floor — two bright bedrooms, two bathrooms, and balconies. The basement level offers two additional bedrooms and two bathrooms. Total: 4 bedrooms, 4+ bathrooms.
Materials & standards: High-quality construction (European standards), modern finishes. The completed villas are already sold — a clear marker of liquidity and confidence in the location.
Why investors are interested:
-
Unique price advantage. A villa with a private pool, located just 200 meters from the sea in Polyhrono, is a scarce product. Most offerings in this segment either feature a shared pool or are located 500-800 meters from the sea.
-
Capital growth. Halkidiki is a driver of Greek tourism following the "Golden Visa" sales and the short-term rental boom. Kassandra leads in occupancy rates (85%+ in season). Real estate prices here have risen by 12-15% in 2024 with no signs of slowing down.
-
Rental potential. The 4-bedroom configuration (two on the second floor + two in the basement) allows you to rent the villa as two independent units (upper and lower duplex) sharing the pool. The Airbnb yield in Polyhrono during summer is 12-14% per year with 4-5 months of high occupancy (June-September) plus the low season for couples.
-
Legal clarity. Greece offers a straightforward purchase scheme for foreigners (no need to set up a company, unlike in Thailand). The villa sits on its own plot with a clear title.
What's important for the investor:
-
"Under construction with completion in June 2027" — you have the opportunity to enter at the foundation stage (20-30% discount off the finished house price). By the time of completion, the complex will already be established, and neighboring villas will be sold.
-
200 meters to the beach means walking distance. In Polyhrono, this means you are not tied to a car and can rent the villa to tourists without them needing to rent a vehicle.
-
No direct analogs. The nearest competitors with a private pool 200 meters from the sea start at €450-500k for a smaller area.
Summary: You are buying not just a summer house by the sea, but a ready cash-flow asset in one of the most stable markets in Southern Europe. Access to an operational yield of 10%+ with prospects for capital appreciation of 15-20% by 2028.
