LLOF-HRERB-6997 2 BEDROOM TRADITIONAL HOUSE IN LOFOU

Just 26 km northwest of Limassol, hidden away in the Troodos foothills lies one of the most picturesque gems of Cyprus, the peaceful and unique village of Lofou. Lofou’s beauty lays in  its traditional Mediterranean simplicity, stone houses, narrow cobbled streets, clean air and kilometres of hiking trails with panoramic views of the hills, mountains and coast. The village lies at the altitude of 780 m above sea level.
The charming traditional stone house is situated in the village core. The property consists of 2 storey. On the ground floor there is spacious living area with the corner fire place, separate kitchen with a dinning area and a bathroom. The living area is adjacent to covered veranda facing the internal yard of 50 sqm in size.
The external stone stairs connect the two levels of the house. These stairs lead to first floor's covered veranda. From the veranda there is a wooden door opening up to 2 spacious bedrooms and bathroom with a shower. One of the bedrooms enjoys its own big traditional fire place. All the windows features wooden shutters. The bedrooms' windows provide beautiful views toward the nature and the mountains.
The geometry of the building follows a mild slope. Due to this, the house has an access from the two roads - upper and lower. The property is built of stone and timber. The walls and the flooring are stone. The stone walls are massive having 50 cm thickness. The expressed ceiling made of timber beams provides a unifying canvas within the whole house.
This outstanding property can be a retreat, where one could live in a comfortable house dominated by simplicity and genuine beauty of a traditional stone building in an exceptional natural environment. The property also presents a profitable investment.
Lofou village considered as a popular touristic destination is experiencing a property boom and the majority of its stone buildings have been restored to their former glory in accordance with strict planning guidelines to retain Lofou’s old charm.
The house needs some renovation and restoration.  Due to the fact that it is a heritage property there is a government donation for the renovation expenses.
