High-Yield Development and Strategic Acquisition

This prime development plot in Nicosia represents an extraordinary opportunity for landmark high-rise construction in one of the capital’s most strategic urban sectors. Falling within the EZ-α planning zone, the property boasts a massive building density of 200% and a 60% coverage factor, specifically designated for the erection of an iconic building of up to 8 storeys reaching a maximum height of 31 meters. The site features an optimal area of 520 square meters with an impressive 23 meters of road frontage, providing the architectural footprint necessary for high-end mixed-use or multi-unit residential projects. A significant financial advantage of this asset is the presence of a 105 square meter obsolete structure; because this existing house is of no economic value, the property is typically not subject to VAT, providing an immediate and substantial capital saving for developers. In March 2026, the local real estate market is further bolstered by the historic tax overhaul on January 1st, which included the full abolition of stamp duty and the removal of the 3% Special Defence Contribution on rental income, making this an ideal “Build-to-Rent” asset. For those seeking to capitalize on Nicosia’s vertical growth with a high-yield development, this plot offers a secure foundation for 3 decades of experience.
