What is actually there

A hilltop that has been in use for decades, and mostly left alone.

The parcel sits on its own hill above Kessab, high enough that the air moves through it all summer. Four fifths of it has never been built on. What has been built works: two family houses, a villa, two duplexes and a café, all served by existing road, water and power.

The view is the part that cannot be bought later. The land faces across a valley that is itself protected, so nothing can rise into the outlook. On a clear afternoon you can see the sea.

These images are visualisations, not photographs and not plans. They exist to show the scale the site allows: a hotel, villas along the contour, somewhere to eat with the view in front of you, and room left over. What gets built is the buyer's decision.

Where it is

Kessab, on the last mountain before the sea.

Kessab is a summer town, and has been for a century. Families from Aleppo, Damascus and the Gulf have kept houses here for generations, and the population multiplies every June. It is the last predominantly Armenian town in Syria, which is why it feels different from the coast below it.
