Lyra Villas is a boutique collection of 12 modern two-storey villas set on a tranquil hillside in Kissonerga, Paphos. Each three-bedroom, three-bathroom villa is designed for comfort and style, with high-end finishes and sustainable features built in. Prices start in the €430–470K range, which is especially attractive given the included extras: a private swimming pool, solar panels, a built-in BBQ bench, security systems, and more. Notably, every home at Lyra offers uninterrupted sea and city views – you can literally “wake up to the view” of Paphos and the Mediterranean. In short, Lyra combines smart, contemporary living with a private, luxury resort feel, making it ideal for both personal use and high-end holiday rentals.
Why Kissonerga is an Ideal Location
Lyra’s location is a key part of its appeal. Kissonerga is a charming coastal village just 8 km northwest of Paphos city centre. It sits about 112 m above sea level, surrounded by lush greenery and even historic banana plantations, offering scenic hillside landscapes. Despite its tranquility, Kissonerga is close to everything: a short drive (or even walk) takes you to local shops, tavernas and markets, and the golden beaches of Coral Bay are only a few minutes away. Domenica Group highlights Kissonerga’s “perfect balance of tranquility and convenience”, noting that buyers here enjoy village charm and easy access to Paphos amenities.
Key benefits include:
– Peaceful, Scenic Setting: Enjoy a quieter life amid Mediterranean nature. Kissonerga’s hilltop position provides beautiful vistas and a calm atmosphere.
– Beach & City Access: You’re never far from the coast or the city. The nearest beaches (including popular Coral Bay) are just minutes away, and Paphos town (shops, restaurants, international school, marina, airport) is easily reached in under 15 minutes by car.
– Authentic Village Lifestyle: The village vibe is strong: local festivals, family-run tavernas and a friendly community mean you feel part of a real Cypriot village. Unlike in a crowded city, you’ll wake up to fresh sea breezes and starry skies.
Together, these traits make Kissonerga a highly sought-after area. In fact, Domenica notes that demand here is so strong that their previous projects (Quattro and Aquarius) quickly sold out. As the area grows in popularity, properties here are poised for solid appreciation.
Benefits of Buying Off-Plan in Lyra
Investing off-plan – reserving a Lyra villa before construction is complete – offers several financial advantages:
– Lock in a Lower Price: By buying at the pre-construction stage, you secure today’s price. As one analyst notes, you essentially “lock in tomorrow’s home at today’s price,” giving you an immediate edge if the market appreciates. Developers often offer early-bird or presale pricing; Lyra’s starting prices are set to rise as construction progresses.
– Build Equity Before Completion: During the build period (often 1–2 years), property values in Paphos continue climbing. If prices rise 5–10% by the time you finish the final payment, your equity grows automatically. This means you could gain property value increase even before moving in – a head start on your investment.
– Lower Upfront Costs: Off-plan purchases typically require smaller initial deposits. Instead of a full 20% down payment, buyers often pay as little as 5–10% to reserve their unit. The balance is paid on completion. This staged payment schedule frees up cash flow during the construction period.
– Customisation & Modern Amenities: Buying new means a brand-new, energy-efficient home with warranties and the latest design. You can often customise key finishes (flooring, kitchen style, appliances) to appeal to high-end buyers or renters. Since the villas are built with modern tech (solar panels, insulation, plumbing, etc.) you’ll face fewer maintenance costs than with an older property.
Overall, off-plan buying is a strategic investment. You benefit from Cyprus’s long-term price growth trends at a discount and enjoy a high-quality, turnkey property at delivery.
Cyprus & Paphos Market Outlook
Cyprus’s real estate market has shown strong performance and investor appeal in recent years. As a stable EU member economy with low taxes, the island is consistently growing: price indices have risen year after year. Paphos, in particular, was the fastest-growing Cyprus market in 2024 – house prices jumped +13.4% (apartments +12.1%). Strong international demand (foreign buyers now drive ~60% of transactions in Paphos keeps the market hot.
Rental yields are healthy too. Nationwide, gross yields average around 4–6%, and in Paphos one-bedroom homes can fetch 6–7.5%. The island’s tourism sector guarantees year-round rental demand, especially for high-end villas like Lyra that appeal to holidaymakers. Furthermore, purchasing property ≥€300K qualifies buyers for Cyprus permanent residency, adding another layer of value for international investors. Between EU membership (with its business friendly environment) and the island’s sunny lifestyle, investing in Cyprus real estate is broadly seen as safe and rewarding.
