Where to find a property for sale in Limassol

Whilst British property hunters seeking value have historically headed to Paphos, those with deeper pockets seeking a truly cosmopolitan coastal city, have gravitated to Limassol. Even before its showpiece marina opened to a big fanfare, the well-located city with both skiing and nice beaches within 40 minutes has been easier to reach with new motorway links. But the mixed-use marina development, offering Cyprus’s first full-service superyacht marina in the Old Town, has undoubtedly been a big driver for investment. It has attracted young entrepreneurial types and business scions from across the globe. If you find Paphos too Anglo-centric and what the latest in swanky new-build homes, you might like Limassol (or if not Ayia Napa, another option there).

Outside the marina, you’ll pay €2 million for a quality, detached villa that you would pay €700,000 for in the Paphos region, but you can also get smaller properties in the sought-after areas most popular for rentals– Germasogeia or Pissouri for around €300,000, whether bungalows or large apartments. Pissouri is a popular village where it’s possible to get a three-bedroom villa with a pool from around €275,000, although Souni is another village location alternative. Limassol is the best place to go shopping if you want a cutting-edge new apartment next to the beach and the business district, or to wander around the bars and restaurants of the marina.
