Paphos, Kamares, Cyprus

This beautiful four-bedroom detached villa in Kamares, Tala, has been modernised to the highest standard with luxury finishes, bespoke joinery, advanced heating/cooling systems, automated lighting/security, and an elevator to all floors.  Kamares is a quiet, award-winning garden village located above the humidity line with a club house, tennis courts, a medical centre and an active, welcoming residents’ association. 

With sweeping sea and mountain views, the villa faces south/southeast to catch the sun’s warmth in spring, autumn and winter. There is minimal exposure to the hot late-afternoon sun in July/August. External motorised aluminum blinds manage light and warmth levels. 

Comfortable for year-round living, the villa has fully insulated walls, roof and floor.  Solar panels, heat pumps and a VRV system drive the underfloor heating and ducted hot/cold aircon.  An eight-person elevator, with battery backup, gives access to all floors from street level. Water is purified by multiple filters, and the septic system is modernised.  

The spacious open plan living area is perfect for entertaining. Floor-to-ceiling glazing opens fully to maximise the views and create a bright, airy outdoor/indoor space.  In the winter, the flames of a clean bioethanol fire, controlled remotely, flicker in the surrounding black glass.  Another black glass unit contains the internet and security hubs and a 7-channel TV/audio system.  In the guest powder room, soft recessed light glistens on mirror and polished granite.

The kitchen has a large island with seating, granite worktops, a separate workroom, high-end appliances, two fridge units, two ovens, warming drawer, induction hob, boiling water tap, and specialty fittings to ease access such as pulldown shelves, corner drawers, swivel and bottle trays and built-in bins 

Exiting to one side of the main floor, an outdoor dining/BBQ space is adjacent to a delightful waterfall tumbling down natural stone. On the opposite side, an al fresco sitting area is surrounded by palm trees and expansive views.  A bridge connecting the two sides overlooks a pool terrace nestled within a lush mature garden.

The heated overflow pool uses unchlorinated purified water.  A cascade waterfall splashes into a shallow pond that joins the main pool and is ideal for lounging or playing with children.  Near the pool is a stainless steel hot/cold outdoor shower. 

On the villa’s middle level is a guest bedroom with an en suite shower room and private terrace.  All bedrooms have internet and TV points.  Also on this level are a laundry room with a sink and extensive storage, and separate cloak/utility cupboards.

At the top level is the master suite with a walk-in dressing room and shower room.  The master bedroom is flooded with light and air from three glazed sides, offering spectacular views of the sea, green hills and the glimmering lights of Paphos at night.  Outside the bedroom is a decked terrace edged by cypresses.  A third bedroom (currently used as a study) shares the terrace and has an en suite shower room.

An annex separate to the villa is equipped for independent living with its own kitchenette and white goods, substantial storage and a shower room.  Above it is a garage with a special outlet to take a car charger.

At night, lights illuminate the pool, waterfalls, stone pathways, and decade-old palms, cypresses and pines.  Tall hedges and fences protect the boundaries.  Irrigation is computerised.  There is separate access to the property for gardeners and deliveries. 

The property has full title deeds and is rated energy efficiency class A.
