Discover Land Purchase Opportunities in Kefalonia
If you’re exploring real-estate investment or looking for your own plot in Kefalonia, the buildable plots listed within village/city borders offer an excellent window of opportunity. The listings include plots (land) ready for purchase and sale, affording buyers economical entry into the island’s property market.
Why consider these plots?
- The plots are buildable, meaning you can purchase and then construct your own home or business (subject to local zoning and permits).
- They lie within village or city borders, which gives comparatively easier access to services (roads, utilities, infrastructure) compared to remote land.
- They are offered at varying costs – from very affordable small plots (e.g., ~€15,000) to larger plots (~€400,000+) depending on size and location.
- A wide choice of areas: you’ll find plots near the coast, near ports or airports, in green countryside zones – offering diversity in investment style (holiday home vs full-time living vs rental investment).
Area Highlights & What To Look For
Here are some of the standout areas listed with key characteristics for potential buyers:
Central Town / Port Nearby – e.g., Argostoli
- Plots in Argostoli are highly desirable due to proximity to the port, shops, restaurants and transport.
- Example: A corner plot of ~402 m² listed for €400,000. Corner Plot
- Advantages: Urban convenience, potential for higher resale value or rental turnover if built as holiday accommodation.
- Considerations: Higher cost, potentially less expansive green views or sea-views compared to more rural plots.
- Best for: Buyers seeking a central location, full-time residence, or investment with high demand.
Near the Airport / Coastal & Touristic Areas – e.g., Svoronata (Livathos region)
- Large buildable plot listed: ~6,395 m² at €450,000. Large buildable plot
- Advantages: Likely sea-view or at least coastal proximity, very good for holiday rental or premium home. Close to airport means easier access for visitors.
- Considerations: Higher cost, size may demand larger investment in building. Infrastructure and permits may require more time.
- Best for: Investors aiming for tourism rentals or premium homes with sea-view and accessibility.
More Affordable Green / Village-Setting Areas – e.g., Kardakata
- Several smaller plots listed: e.g., ~227 m² for €15,000; ~568 m² for €45,000.
- Advantages: Very economical entry into real-estate. Village location means green surroundings, quieter lifestyle, potentially lower building costs.
- Considerations: May be further from coast or amenities; might not have immediate sea-view or premium status. If investment rental, demand may be lower than prime coastal zones.
- Best for: Buyers with budget constraints, those seeking peaceful living, or long-term investment in an upcoming area.
Mixed Areas: Mid-range Coastal / Near Beach or Green Setting – e.g., Lourdata
- Example: 445 m² plot for €80,000. Plot in Lourdata
- Advantages: Balanced cost, decent size, likely access to beach or sea-view, ideal for a holiday home or investment.
- Considerations: While more affordable than prime port-town plots, still significant cost; building cost and local regulations to watch.
- Best for: Buyers wanting a compromise: good location (sea or near beach) at more manageable cost than town centre or ultra-premium plots.
Key Advice for Prospective Buyers
- Check the “photos”: Always view the photos of the plot to assess terrain, access, views, proximity to amenities and sea-view. The listing page highlights “photos” as part of the sales material.
- Understand “buildable” status: The listings say “Buildable: yes” for each plot. That’s a major advantage. Confirm local building permissions, zoning, and what you can build (size, height, use).
- Cost vs Opportunity: Some plots are bargains (e.g., 227 m² for €15,000) – this is an economical way to get into the market. Others cost more but offer views, proximity to sea or port, higher potential return.
- Location matters: Sea-view, near port or airport, or in lush green countryside all influence cost and future value.
- Investment vs lifestyle: If you aim to build, rent, or resell, choose location accordingly. Villages may give slower growth but calmer lifestyle; coastal/port zones may give higher yield.
- Offers / bargains: Look out for plots that are listed at lower cost relative to size or location – may be hidden gems.
- Plan extra costs: Purchase cost is only part – you’ll have building, infrastructure, permits, taxes, and professional fees.
Use a local agent: For example Enos Properties, who know the island, the plots, and can guide you through purchase and sale process.
