Rise Villas And Apartments

Apartments and Villas for Sale in Konia, Paphos, Cyprus

Konia sits on the hills immediately east of Paphos, high enough that one side of the village looks out to sea and the other to the foothills of the Troodos. It is a settled residential address with its own school, shops and tavernas, and it has become one of the places buyers look at when they want to live in Paphos without living in the centre of it.

Rise occupies a plot on Persefonis Street: 24 homes behind one gated entrance, made up of two three-storey apartment buildings and six detached villas. The whole development is at the off-plan stage: homes are reserved from drawings and a written specification, before construction finishes.

24 Homes, Two Formats: How the Apartments and Villas Compare

The two formats are genuinely different propositions sharing one address, one set of gardens and one 25-metre communal pool. The figures below are internal areas as built, so they are fixed figures, taken from the plans.

Apartments are split across buildings A and B, three floors each, with the larger three-bedroom layouts on every level and the two-bedroom homes between them. Each building holds nine apartments, three to a floor, and of the eighteen, twelve are three-bedroom homes and six are two-bedroom. The villas stand separately on the grounds, each with a private pool of its own in addition to the communal one.

What Is Within Five Minutes of Konia

What makes Konia work day to day is how little of it involves driving far. A school and restaurants are roughly a minute away, shops and the hospital two, and the centre of Paphos five. The beach is eight minutes, the golf course seven, and Paphos International Airport thirteen — close enough that an arriving flight and a front door are the same afternoon. The A6 motorway is a short drive, which puts Limassol within reach for a working commute.

The practical effect is a short school run and a short supermarket run, in a village that stays lived-in through the winter.

Construction, Heating and the Smart Home Specification

Every home is built to the same specification. Underfloor heating runs throughout, with a smart home system, panoramic windows and high ceilings, and engineered wood flooring in the bedrooms. The structure is anti-seismic and the building envelope is energy-efficient, and each home has provision for an electric car charger.

Residents share landscaped gardens, a children's playground with a safe impact surface, and parking split between private spaces and visitor bays. The grounds are gated and covered by CCTV around the clock. A maintenance and support service covers the development, which matters most to owners who are not in Cyprus every month.

Who a Gated Scheme in Konia Suits

Two kinds of buyer fit this address. Families moving to Paphos for the schools get a one-minute school run, a playground inside the gates and a hospital two minutes away, in a village that is lived in all year. Second-home buyers get a property that is looked after between visits, a lock-up-and-leave arrangement with a pool and gardens maintained for them.

Investors reading the same numbers will note the airport at thirteen minutes and the beach at eight, the two distances that decide whether a holiday let is practical.

Buying at the Off-Plan Stage

Buying off-plan means choosing position, floor and format from drawings: which of the two buildings, which level, a corner apartment with the longer sea view, or the single 233 m² villa among the six when the other five measure 213 m². The trade-off is time: an off-plan purchase is a wait, with the reward of a home that is new on the day it is handed over, under warranty, and built to a current energy specification.

Cyprus remains an EU member state with its own property-purchase framework for foreign buyers, and a purchase in Paphos district carries the same rules as anywhere else on the island.
