12 property types

Property types in Limassol, explained

What each format actually means in the Cyprus market — realistic sizes, layouts, running costs, where it concentrates in the city and who it suits.

One bedroom apartments

Compact, low-maintenance apartments aimed at singles, couples and buy-to-let investors, concentrated in central and coastal Limassol.

Two bedroom apartments

The most common family and dual-income apartment size in Limassol, balancing space, price and rental appeal.

Three bedroom apartments

A scarcer, larger apartment size aimed at families and downsizers who want house-sized living without a garden to maintain.

Penthouses

Top-floor apartments with private roof terraces, priced at a premium for position, light and outdoor space rather than internal area alone.

Duplex apartments

Two-level apartments that split living and sleeping across separate floors, offering house-like separation without a private garden.

Ground floor garden apartments

Apartments with a private garden instead of a veranda, popular with buyers who want outdoor space without full house maintenance.

Sea view apartments

Apartments with a sea aspect, priced on a spectrum from partial glimpse views to full unobstructed frontage rather than as a single category.

New build villas

Standalone new-build houses on private plots, at the upper end of Limassol's residential market for space, privacy and outdoor living.

Townhouses

Terraced or semi-detached houses that sit between an apartment and a standalone villa, offering house living with a smaller plot and shared walls.

Family homes

A needs-based rather than a fixed unit type, covering the apartments and houses in Limassol best suited to raising children.

Holiday homes

Second homes bought for personal use and part-time letting, favouring low-maintenance apartments and villas with a pool near the coast.

Investment apartments

Apartments bought principally for rental return rather than personal use, where letting demand and running costs matter more than personal preference.
