Limassol is developing very dynamically, especially in the real estate sector. Unique residential complexes are appearing here more and more often. One of such project is Art Square Residences from a young development company Makespace Development.
Art Square - a new philosophy from a young developer
The development company Makespace Development has only recently entered the real estate market in Cyprus, but its founder, Aslan Kipov, has impressive experience working with partners from all over the world, including the USA. The Makespace Development team currently consists of 7 people in Cyprus, but many world-class specialists are brought in from outside. For example, for the Art Square project, renowned architects and engineers were invited, as well as an Italian artist with the pseudonym Millo.
Makespace Development is going to bring to its projects something that is rarely there in Cyprus. These are:
- the most accurate and subtle consideration of the Mediterranean climate in the construction of buildings and communications, so that the apartments will be warm and dry in winter and cool in summer;
- a new approach to the layout of apartments: for example, the developer is going to "introduce" in Cyprus such a concept as a hallway;
- selection of top locations for development, so that the residential complex is located as conveniently as possible and close to all necessary places: from the beach and parks to schools, supermarkets, and business centers;
- all-inclusive philosophy: when the buyer does not need to think about what will be better - everything is already thought out in detail and delivered "turnkey"; for example, the price of apartments in Art Square already includes a storage room, parking space, as well as air conditioning and underfloor heating, which is unusual for Cyprus - they are often paid separately;
- a completely new design of the buildings: it should fit into the modern look of the city, have its own "feature" (for Art Square it is the painting of external walls by artist Millo) and at the same time be universal.
The residential projects that are going to be realized by Makespace Development will be a "fresh breath" for modern Cyprus. Art Square will be the first project of such a plan, so the company expects that the sales of apartments will be completed before the object is commissioned.
The best location for the residential complex
Since the Art Square project is conceived as an embodiment of a new philosophy of organizing life in Cyprus, the location for it was chosen very carefully. Perhaps, the Katoliki district is one of the best locations in the whole Limassol, and there are several facts to prove it.
City Center
The Katholiki neighborhood is truly the heart of Limassol, where history is seamlessly intertwined with modernity. You can step outside and take in the unique atmosphere of the Old Town, and then walk to the modern waterfront. Life in the center is always dynamic, saturated, maximally convenient and highly comfortable.
Infrastructure for everyday life
Living in the center means having everything you need within walking distance. Family people will enjoy the proximity of two private schools, kindergartens, clinics and leisure facilities for children. Working people will appreciate the convenience of access to business centers and the availability of offices nearby. Athletes will be pleased with the neighborhood's rugby field, jogging areas, fitness and gyms, and tennis club. There are also cafes and restaurants, small shops and supermarkets, beauty salons and private clinics in the neighborhood.
Infrastructure for a vacation
For many people, Cyprus becomes a place to relax or is synonymous with "living a relaxed life". In the Katoliki area you can find everything you need for this: atmospheric establishments, bars and restaurants, places for cultural and youth activities. And of course, the seaside and marina are very close by.
Proximity to the sea and marina
When it comes to real estate in Limassol, one of the first questions is its location relative to the sea. And here Art Square has realized one of the top solutions. The complex is built at some distance from the sea (about 10-15 minutes on foot), which allows you to solve two problems at once: to protect residents from the effects of the penetrating winds that occur in the off-season (mainly in February-April), and at the same time to provide direct access to the coast and magnificent views from the windows. The modern Limassol marina with its magnificent promenade and all its resort infrastructure can be reached on foot through beautiful streets, enjoying the walk and the mild Mediterranean climate.
Walking area
Art Square is located next to the Molos promenade, which is famous for its length, greenery and the presence of the Sculpture Park. There are also green islands, small squares and pedestrian streets throughout the area, which will be favorite places for strolls in fine weather.
Magnificent views
The location of Art Square allows you to have top views from the windows of any apartment. Starting from the 3rd floor, from the panoramic windows on the south side you can see the sea. From the other side you can see the whole city as if in the palm of your hand. The most luxury awaits, of course, the residents of penthouses on the 6th floor.
A complex for a comfortable life in any style
Art Square is a modern project, which is very cozy and at the same time - large enough and free. Externally, the complex is 4 six-storey buildings, arranged in such a way that inside there is a large private space exclusively for the residents. Let's get acquainted with it closer.
Two entrances with fountains lead to the territory of the closed and guarded complex, they are located opposite each other and connected by a walkway. Along it there is an artificial river and a dense green garden with benches for rest or remote work in the fresh air.
At the center of the "river" on one side there is a children's playground and an outdoor exercise area for adults, on the other side there is a swimming pool and recreation area under awnings. Each of the residential blocks has its own underground parking and a green island, which slightly "fences off" it from the common area.
Inside the buildings there are also public areas: these are places for meetings and parties, a hall for yoga, table tennis, dancing and other sports.
It is worth taking into account that the complex has energy efficiency class A, which is facilitated by solar panels installed on the roofs of the blocks. This allows you to keep the environment clean and reduce the cost of utilities.
Note: electricity in Cyprus is a rather expensive resource. Using solar panels, you can reduce costs by up to 60% per year.
"As an appetizer" it is worth noting the unusual appearance of Art Square. These are restrained in design buildings that have a medium floor, which fits into the eclecticism of the center of Limassol. At the same time they are painted in a special style by an invited artist, which allows you to distinguish the complex from many others.
Luxury apartments at an attractive price
Makespace Development emphasizes: the main task of any project is to follow the details at all levels and stages and make the best of the possible. Art Square Residences is a vivid confirmation of this. Above you have already seen how well thought out all the external details of the complex are. Now it's time to get acquainted with what's inside.
Absolutely all apartments in Art Square are made according to the "turnkey" philosophy. Yes, yes, exactly the philosophy: the developer has taken care that the buyer gets everything he needs for a comfortable life without hesitation. That is why absolutely all amenities and additions are already included in the price of real estate: for Cyprus it is quite a rare phenomenon. Usually some communications, parking space and swimming pool on the roof of penthouses are paid separately, but Makespace Development are sure: it is inconvenient.
All apartments have a convenient layout, high ceilings, large panoramic windows with beautiful views, spacious terrace (more than 20 m2) and fully ready for life designer repairs. To maintain a comfortable temperature in winter in the apartments are laid warm water floors, and to keep cool in the summer - conducted VRV-conditioning system. The bathrooms and kitchens are fitted with high quality sanitary ware.
The 1-bedroom apartment has a living area of 51 m2, living room, combined with a kitchen and 1 bathroom. There is a separate storage room. High ceilings and panoramic windows allow you to create the effect of a large and open space. This apartment is perfect for a single person or a small family.
The 2-bedroom apartment occupies 99 m2, excluding two large verandas totaling 26 m2. In this spacious area, there is a living room connected to the kitchen and dining area and two bedrooms, each with its own bathroom. Panoramic windows on both sides of the living room create an open space effect, while the large bedrooms allow you to customize the rooms to your liking.
The 3-bedroom apartment has 137.5m2 of living space, and that's without the two verandas totaling 27.3m2. The layout of the apartment is quite unusual for Cyprus: at the entrance, there is a hallway area with cupboards and a guest toilet. Then there is a huge living room with a kitchen and dining area. Sunlight is always available here due to the panoramic glazing on two opposite sides. From here there are also exits to the verandas: one large, the second - smaller. Along the corridor is a large shared bathroom with a bathtub.
The two bedrooms are slightly smaller but still spacious. Each has space for built-in closets and a work and leisure area. One of them can easily be used as a nursery or office. The master bedroom has an impressive size and its own bathroom. Such a spacious apartment is suitable for large families.
On the top floor of each of the Art Square blocks there are luxurious, spacious, truly royal penthouses. Their "highlight", besides stunning panoramic views of the sea and the surrounding area, is the second tier in the open air. There is a recreation area (with a summer kitchen on request) with greenery and a private pool.
It is worth paying attention to the attractive prices of apartments. For the central district of Limassol and the high class of the complex they are very democratic. Agree, at such a cost is difficult to find real estate even in more remote areas from the sea. Of course, after the commissioning of the object (it is scheduled for 2024), the price of apartments here will rise significantly. Therefore, buying a home in Art Square at the construction stage - one of the best solutions for investment or living in Cyprus.
