If you have been thinking about buying a house in Greece, now it could be a good time. Greece is undoubtedly the birthplace of the western civilization and one of the most beautiful countries in Europe. Even though it is known as an excellent holiday destination, more and more people are choosing the Hellenic country to be their place of residence.
Greece is situated in the southern side of Europe covering an area of 131,957km2 and less than 11 million inhabitants. It is made up of over 2,000 islands distributed across the Aegean, Ionian and Mediterranean seas, of which only 227 are inhabited.
Its geographical position between the continents of Europe, Asia and Africa gives Greece an incredible contrast of landscape. These include massifs, large rural regions, mountainous forests and over 13,500km of coastline with beautiful villages of whitewashed houses and dream-like beaches. There are a vast number of scenic areas to choose from when considering acquiring a property for sale in Greece. Although it may be surprising at first, the Hellenic country also has ski resorts in Mount Parnassus, Drama, Pertouli and Mainalon, as well as long rivers and enormous lakes where it is possible to do water sports.
Greece is one of the most welcoming countries and enjoys a delicious gastronomy – Mediterranean with influences from neighboring countries –, as well as a rich history, a magnificent cultural legacy, and an exceptional climate, particularly from March to November.
In short, buying a luxury property in Greece is a great opportunity, whether you prefer in Athens, the capital, in the Peloponnese or in one of the Greek Islands. This is especially the case for foreign buyers who can benefit from great advantages with the Greece program: My Residence (Golden Visa).
