Orion Residences

Apartments Under Construction in Agios Nikolaos, Limassol, Cyprus

Orion Residences is a residential building in Agios Nikolaos, a district of Limassol that lies a short drive east of the city centre. Construction is already under way, and handover is planned for June 2027. For buyers in Cyprus who do not want to wait three years or more for an off-plan project, a building at this stage shortens the time between contract and keys.

The building offers one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments as well as penthouses, so households of very different sizes share the same address. The energy performance class is A. Its floor plans run from the ground floor through the first, second and third floors to the roof level.

Three Bedrooms, 96 m² Inside, a 25 m² Veranda and a 36 m² Roof Garden

The largest layout in the current offer is a three-bedroom apartment on the third floor. Inside it measures about 96 m², with two bathrooms. Outside, a veranda of about 25 m² runs along the apartment, and a private roof garden of about 36 m² sits on the roof level directly above. Added together, internal and outdoor areas come to roughly 157 m².

For a family, the numbers translate into three separate bedrooms, which leaves room for two children with their own rooms or a guest room plus a study. The two bathrooms reduce morning queues, and the veranda gives a shaded spot for meals during the hot months.

The roof garden adds a second outdoor area that is not overlooked from the street. Many owners use a roof of this size for a dining table, a few planters and sun loungers. Ask us for the floor plan of the third floor and the roof level to see where the stair access and the services are placed.

Construction Under Way: What Buying Before Handover in June 2027 Involves

A building under construction sits between an off-plan project and a finished resale apartment. Work on site has started, so you can visit and see the progress for yourself, and the remaining build time is shorter. Payments are usually split into stages, part of which may already be due at signing because some construction milestones have been reached.

Before you sign, ask for the building permit, the specification of finishes, the floor plan of the exact apartment and a written payment schedule. An independent lawyer in Cyprus should review all of them. The signed sale contract is then lodged with the Land Registry, which secures the buyer's claim to the apartment until the transfer.

In Cyprus, separate title deeds are issued after completion of the building, and this can take some time after handover. Your lawyer can explain the status of the plot and the expected timeline. We stay in contact with the site and can tell you the current construction stage before you travel to see it.

Everyday Life in Agios Nikolaos for Families and Couples

Agios Nikolaos is mainly residential, with supermarkets, pharmacies, cafés and schools spread through the neighbourhood. Based on estimated driving times, the nearest schools, shops and a hospital are each about a minute away, which keeps school runs and weekly shopping short. Restaurants are also within about a minute by car.

The beach is an estimated two minutes away by car, so a swim before or after work fits easily into the day. The city centre of Limassol, with its offices, the old town and the marina area, is around three minutes away. The nearest golf course is roughly half an hour's drive.

The three-bedroom apartment suits a family that wants space for children within the city. The one- and two-bedroom apartments in the same building suit couples, single professionals and buyers who want a compact home near the centre. The penthouses are aimed at buyers who put outdoor space and privacy first.
