New homes in Cyprus, built the way we'd build our own.
Timoleon is a family developer that still runs its own building sites. Our founder has been pouring foundations in Cyprus since 1990, so every home we sell in Paphos and Limassol is built to a builder's standard, not a salesman's.
Three places to call home
Contemporary apartments, penthouses and villas in the two cities our buyers ask for most. All new-build, all built by us, all open to personalisation while construction is under way.
Sabih Residences
Six sculpted residences with wraparound curved terraces, and two penthouses crowned by private rooftop pools.
Baroody Villas
Three-bedroom villas with private pools, roof terraces and outdoor kitchens, ten minutes from Limassol Marina.
Rise Residences
Two-bedroom apartments with a shared rooftop pool, covered parking and private storage, two minutes from the shops.
If a thing's worth doing, it's worth doing well.
Most developers in Cyprus are sales companies. They buy land, hire the cheapest contractor that will sign, and move on to the next plot. The corners they cut are the ones you can't see in a brochure: waterproofing, insulation, rebar, drainage.
We come from the other side of the fence. Savvas Savva spent his career on sites: first as a builder, then as technical director on some of the island's biggest luxury projects. Timoleon exists because he wanted to build homes with nothing hidden behind the plaster.
Why buy from a builder-developer
Four promises we can actually keep
We build it ourselves
No chain of subcontractors. Our own team runs every site and the founder is on it most days. When we tell you the waterproofing is right, it's because we watched it go in.
Built not to need fixing
We don't run a repairs department because our homes don't need one. The money other developers keep aside for call-backs goes into better materials instead.
Make it yours
Buy during construction and you can shape the home: layouts, tiles, kitchen, wardrobes, lighting. You'll choose finishes with the people who install them.
One family, start to finish
You'll deal with the Savva family from the first call to the day you get your keys, and every year after. No call centre, no hand-offs, no disappearing act.
Buy a home. Get lifetime EU residency.
Spend €300,000 + VAT on a new home from a developer and you, your partner and your children can hold Cyprus permanent residence for life. Approval usually takes two to four months.
- Every Sabih Residences apartment qualifies on its own, from €319,000
- Baroody Villas qualify: a family home and a residence permit in one
- At Rise Residences, two apartments bought together qualify
- We coordinate with your lawyer and the paperwork from reservation to approval
General guidance, not legal advice. Applications are decided by the Civil Registry and Migration Department of Cyprus, and an independent lawyer should confirm your eligibility before you buy.

Renders are easy. Here's the real thing.
Anyone can commission a beautiful render. These are photographs from our own sites: the parts of a building most developers would rather you didn't see.
Paphos or Limassol? We know both.
From first call to keys in hand
Buying in another country should feel straightforward. Here's exactly what happens, and who does what.
The full buyer's guideTalk to the family
A call or video chat with Nikolas or Savvas. Tell us what you need; we'll tell you honestly which home fits, or if none does.
See it, in person or on video
Walk the site, the show finishes and the neighbourhood with us. Can't fly over yet? We'll do it live on video.
Reserve and let your lawyer check
A reservation takes the home off the market while your own independent lawyer checks the title, permits and contract.
Sign, and pay as we build
The contract is stamped and lodged with the Land Registry to protect you. Payments are linked to construction stages.
Personalise, then move in
Choose finishes while we build. At handover you'll walk through every room with the people who built it.
Straight answers
Can foreigners buy property in Cyprus?
Yes. EU citizens buy on the same terms as Cypriots. Non-EU buyers need a routine permission from the District Office to register the property in their name. Your lawyer files it for you, and it does not hold up the purchase. We guide international buyers through every step.
Do your homes qualify for Cyprus permanent residency?
Every apartment at Sabih Residences (from €319,000) and every villa at Baroody qualifies on its own for the fast-track permanent residence permit, which needs €300,000 + VAT in new property from a developer. At Rise Residences, buying two apartments together qualifies. Read the full residency guide.
Can I change the layout or finishes?
If you buy while the building is going up, yes. That is one of the big advantages of buying from a builder. Depending on the stage, we can adjust internal layouts, tiles, kitchens, wardrobes, bathrooms and lighting. We'll tell you honestly what is still possible and what it costs.
Can I buy without travelling to Cyprus?
Many of our buyers do. We run live video walk-throughs of the site and the show finishes, your independent lawyer can act for you under a power of attorney, and payments are made by bank transfer to a client account. You can visit whenever suits you, and you're always welcome on site.
Are prices inclusive of VAT?
Prices are quoted excluding VAT. Standard VAT on new homes is 19%, but if the home will be your main residence you may qualify for the reduced 5% rate on the first 130 m². We'll show you the numbers for your situation before you commit.
Why don't you have a repairs department?
Because the homes don't need one. Our founder spent decades as a site builder and technical director; every Timoleon home is built by our own team to a specification we'd accept in our own house. The money most developers set aside for fixing things goes into the build instead.
