Property Description
With its hillside location, this 4 bedroom Town House on the northern edge of Limassol offers panoramic views of the whole town and the sea. Whilst maintaining the peace of a quiet suburb, it is equally convenient for popping into the main town for shopping, restaurants and entertainment or heading up to the Troodos mountains.
The luxury finishes include a choice between marble tiles and laminated parquet flooring for the bedrooms, and a choice of marble floor tiles for all other rooms and the central staircase, as well as a choice of ceramic tiles for bathroom walls up to door height and kitchen walls between cupboards. All external windows and patio doors are double glazed in aluminium frames, with a solid oak timber door for the main entrance. There are solid oak doors for all kitchen cupboards with veneered oak doors for the built wardrobes in bedrooms. A steel balustrade is provided with solid oak railing, and aluminium railings onthe upper balconies.
This property offers amazing views of the Limassol city and the Mediterranean Sea below, and of the Troodos mountains above, but remains in a convenient quiet area less than 10 minutes driving distance from the city centre, with its wealth of shops and cultural activities, as well as all the trading activities of a major international port.
Limassol is the sea capital of modern Cyprus, with its thriving port and major shopping areas. It also provides the threshold for access to the Troodos mountain range, with its famous Kykkos monastery, and winter ski slopes.
The medieval castle was built by the Byzantines around 1000 AD, and it now serves as a medieval museum covering the era of 400 - 1870 A.D.
The Archaeological Museum provides a collection of antiquities from the Neolithic Age to the Roman period.
The Folk Art Museum is a beautifully preserved old house with a collection of Cypriot Folk Art of the last two centuries including national costumes, tapestry, embroidery and wooden chests.
The Public Garden is situated on the coastal road and offers a great variety of vegetation: eucalyptus trees, pine trees and cypresses. In this beautiful environment the citizens of Limassol and many visitors can walk around and enjoy themselves. Not far from there, is the small natural history museum and the garden theatre that is reconstructed to host famous international groups.
A series of public sculptures commissioned by the Limassol Municipality, can be found on the Twin Cities park, spanning one mile of Seafront reclaimed land.
Limassol is also famous in Cyprus for its festivals, like the Carnival and Wine Festival.
The Limassol Carnival festival lasts for ten (10) days, with amusing masquerading - a custom going back to pagan rituals. The festival starts with the entrance parade of the King Carnival, followed by a fancy-dress competition for children. During the Carnival parade in the main streets, large crowds from all over the island gather to watch the floats with the serenade and other masqueraded groups. Many fancy-dress balls and parties take place at many hotels every night.
During the first quarter of September, the great Wine Festival of Cyprus takes place in the Municipal Garden of Lemesos (Limassol), every evening between 8.00 hrs - 23.00 hrs. During the festival the visitor has the chance to taste some of the best Cyprus wines, which are offered free of charge. On some evenings, various groups from Cyprus and abroad perform folk dancing and there are also choirs and others.
Other festivals are Flower Festival (May), Festival of the Flood (June), Shakespearean nights and Ancient Greek Drama Festival.
