What to consider before building a holiday home in
Argolis
Argolis combines sea, history and easy access from Athens. Before you start
building a holiday home, there are a few critical points worth considering.
Below we have gathered practical advice from projects we have undertaken in the
area, so that your investment is safe and functional for many years.
1. Plot location and access
Views are important, but equally important are safe and legal access, the
distance from the settlement and the proximity to basic infrastructure. Check
whether the road is public or private and whether there are rights of way.
2. Climate, sunlight and wind
Orientation, shading and outdoor areas should be adapted to the local climatic
conditions to ensure comfort and energy efficiency.
3. Networks and infrastructure
Water supply, drainage, electricity and telecommunications must be examined early
on. Solutions such as septic tanks, water storage or photovoltaic systems are
often required.
4. Building regulations and special zones
Coastal and rural areas may have specific restrictions (traditional settlements,
archaeological zones, Natura). The architecture must respect both the landscape
and the legislation.
5. Budget and implementation phases
A realistic budget that also includes landscaping and future maintenance helps
avoid unpleasant surprises. Often it is more advantageous to implement the
project in phases, giving priority to the main living areas.
Proper preparation before building a holiday home makes the difference
between a house that simply exists and a place you truly enjoy.
