Rare opportunity to purchase a prestigious and successful taverna in the Old Village, Alonissos.
This property comes complete with living accommodation.
Astrofegia in the Old Village is a much loved and frequented taverna, tucked away in a quiet corner of the village, yet accessible by car and close to the bus stop.
It has seating for up to 100 at tables for four, split between an enclosed covered area, an outside area and the pavement tables with sea views.
Current turnover is producing a handsome net profit.
The living accommodation consists of living room, two bedrooms and shower room.
The 672 m. sq. of land is one of the most spectacular locations in the Old Village, with almost 360 degree views over the sea and the village.
The accommodation is 120m. sq.
The taverna is approached down a quiet lane which also provides a seating area for 20 covers, with sea views.
A double gate and arch lead up steps into the main seating area with 40 covers (10 x 4m) under a vine covered pergola.Wine and glass storage are built into the wall.
From here are also the entrances to the taverna kitchen and, separately, to the living accommodation.
Three steps lead up to a terrace seating a further 40 diners, also with a pergola but less enclosed. This can also be reached through another gate and arch further down the lane.
There are sea views from some of these tables and many plants in pots and urns.
Next to this terrace are the toilets.
The main kitchen (5.2 x 4.75m) opens onto the primary seating area, fully equipped, tiled with industrial extractor, ceiling fan and air conditioning unit. It includes a traditional food display unit and storage areas for crockery and utensils. There is a telephone and a cash till. A door leads into the private accommodation.
An arch and three steps up lead to the rear kitchen with three large stainless steel sinks, fridges, freezers, washing machine and storage, This area measures (4.75 x 2.3m) and has a window and door to the side opening to a sitting area for taverna staff.
All fixtures, fittings and equipment for the taverna are included in the sale.
An arch from the secondary seating area leads to a large rear terrace which has previously been used as a bar area.
The bar is still available for use, with a seating area incorporating a plaka threshing circle and shade provided from a large fig tree (behind the palm!)
A store room is also within this area, which benefits from glorious sea views.
To the left of the bar area, through an arch and down steps is a semi-circular area with fantastic sea views and another large fig tree. (see right).
To the right of the bar area, again through an arch, is another outside area which could be used as the owner’s private garden (behind the owner’s accommodation) or, alternatively, as an extension of the business.
This area has a number of mature trees and, again, amazing sea views.
It also contains the two sternas (water tanks), water pump and oil tank and has an access path to the lane.
A door from the main taverna seating area leads into the living room. This room (4.75 x 4.2m.) has a Sporades style fireplace, plaka floor and windows to the front.

This property was completely renovated about 25 years ago to a high standard.
The walls are about half a metre thick and the roof is tiled with the original Sporades style slate “fish scale” tiles.
