In Messinia, the rhythm of life goes hand in hand with that of the natural environment. No other tree better expresses this bond than the olive tree - a symbol of peace, consistency and longevity that has characterised the landscape of the region for centuries.
The acquisition of a house with its own olive grove is not only a beautiful picture. It is a substantial investment that combines quality of life, economic opportunities and an authentic connection with the land and local tradition.
The experience of the Messinian olive grove
Waking up watching the light bathing the olive trees and enjoying the tranquility of the landscape is a daily routine for the residents here. From the coastal areas of Kalamata to the hills of Mani and the villages around Pylos, every spot offers peace and authenticity.
Why the olive tree is an ideal investment in Messinia
The region is famous for the quality of its olive oil. The mild climate, the fertile land and the experience of the local producers ensure stable production with low maintenance requirements. A small olive grove can provide enough extra virgin olive oil each year for personal use or even commercial exploitation.
Its care can be outsourced to local workers at a reasonable annual cost, and there are often partnerships with producers who take over the harvesting and deliver part of the production to the owner.
Sizes and types of properties
- Small olive groves around houses: 1.000-4.000 sq.m.
- Larger areas: 5.000-20.000 sq.m., with hundreds of trees and potential for commercial exploitation.
Legal framework for foreign buyers
Foreigners can buy land with olive groves in Messinia, following simple procedures and with the support of a local lawyer for title and use control. All owners must be registered in the olive grove register and declare the harvest every year, even if it is exclusively for private consumption.
