This commercial plot in the SOPAZ area of Palouriotissa represents a high-value opportunity for grand-scale urban development. Falling within the Εβ3 planning zone, the property boasts a superior building density of 160% and a 50% coverage factor, allowing for a modern structure of up to 6 storeys and a maximum height of 24 meters. In March 2026, the SOPAZ district is undergoing a historic transformation into Nicosia’s premier innovation and cultural hub. Following the completion of the 2026 viability study, the Nicosia Municipality and the government have moved into the implementation phase for the new Metropolitan Park and a state-of-the-art exhibition and conference center nearby.
