On the most western part of Lesvos lies a piece of paradise, a natural cove with wild beauty called Gavatha.
Upon seeing Gavatha for the first time one is welcomed along a long soft fine sandy beach. Located in a natural bay with a small islet across its shores called Megalonisi, Gavatha is a picture perfect village. The village has a few houses, taverns, mini markets and a cafeteria. It has a small harbour where most locals are engaged in fishing. The white cycladic style church surrounded by the Aegean Sea is the main attraction of Gavathas. Its warm water is considered one of the best beaches for children as its waters are shallow with fine soft sand.
The properties for sale are literally 10 meters walk from the sandy beach, a stone throw away. The properties are within the residential area having water and electricity available. The properties have an undisturbed sea view of the Aegean Sea. The unique feature is that you can walk with your bathing suit from the property straight into the sea throughout the day and also in the evening.
The whole area lacks in airbnbs, hotels and any form of accommodation. This property can be used to build beach cottages or any type of accommodation. The EU subsidizes up to 70% for any type of accommodations to be built. If you would like to build each property as a tourism development then the building allowance is much higher than 400 sq.m for each property. The 400 sq.m is the allowance for private homes. These properties could easily be converted into a profitable business.
The nearest big village is Antissa, which is a 5-minute drive from Gavatha. There you can find supermarkets, gas stations, ATMs, cafeterias, tavernas, schools, and a health care center. Other nearby villages are Sigri and Skala Eresos, the most famous summer destination in the western part of Lesvos. In Sigri there is the largest petrified forest in the world, more than 25 million years old, and is a 15-minute drive from Gavatha. Here you can visit the Natural History Museum of the Lesvos Petrified Forest, where you can see huge Sequoia trees, which are found only in North America today. Also, there is a new harbor with a ferry connection to the mainland of Greece. The vibrant Skala Eresos is a 30-minute drive and it has an endless sandy beach full of bars, cafes, and taverns all on the beach.
