Kastro House enjoys a wonderful location in the oldest part of Skopelos town: just a few minute’s walk away from parking at the Kastro car park, but in a peaceful stepped street containing the small chapel of Aghios Georgios, and with lovely views from its top floor front windows.
Built on three storeys, entry is via a tiny forecourt onto the street, with built-in stone seating and room for a small table, two more chairs and a sun umbrella. A bougainvillea shades the doorway on the right.
The front door leads directly into the small traditional kitchen on the left, with its open shelves, marble sink, mini cooker and fridge. To the right is a small dining area with traditional built-in seating on three sides of the table.
Opposite the staircase, which has built in storage for ironing board, drying rack and cleaning materials, is a small shower room with marble tiling throughout.
Wooden stairs lead to a half landing with old captain’s trunk and window above, off which is a small sitting room with built in sofa beds and two windows, overlooking town roofs and with a partial view of the sea. To the left of the landing is another exit to the side street and a private yard opposite.
Up again is the top floor of the house. This comprises a really light and spacious bedroom, with open beamed wooden ceiling and wooden floors. It has a traditional fireplace and French windows on one side of the room opening onto a street facing balcony overlooking the harbour and Mount Palouki beyond. There is a double bed (having under-bed storage), small built-in wardrobe, small chest of drawers and two windows looking across to the island of Alonissos.
