Villa for sale in Argaka, Paphos, Cyprus

Palatial, opulent and magnificent are just three adjectives which can be used to described this absolutely stunning 5 bedroom, detached villa located close to the beach in the much sought after area of Argaka, 7 km to the north east of Polis on the north west coast of Cyprus. Featured as an Exclusive Property on the TV programme A Place in the Sun.

Built on a plot of 2,035m2 and with a covered area of 435m2 this luxurious property is being sold fully furnished and with full title deeds. The property has been built and located with privacy to the fore, so much so that the writer of this description was not aware of its existence until recently, having lived in the area for the last 15 years.

Benefiting from gated security this stunning villa offers superb views over the sparkling Mediterranean sea and to the foothills of the imposing Troodos mountains which serve as a powerful backdrop.

As soon as one enters the grounds of this marvellous property one cannot help but be stunned by the beautifully tendered and lovingly maintained colourful landscaped gardens. The communal gardens include numerous shaded areas, stylish shrubbery and trees and plenty of areas for relaxation. Musical evenings are regularly held here and when lit, this area takes on an almost ethereal quality. The spacious garden area immediately to the front of the villa has fruit trees as well as delightful flora and fauna all accentuated by the innovative use of stone built pathways. All of this adds to the character and appearance of these attractive features.

Once through the double doors it is the sheer opulence of the property which becomes so immediately apparent. From the marble floors to the granite worktops, and the size of the rooms to the hand finished Italian furniture everything shouts class.

The first room one encounters is a bedroom to the right of the entrance hall. This bedroom, as indeed is the case with each bedroom is a very generously sized double, complete with en suite walk in shower unit, plenty of built in wardrobes and a flat screen TV.

To the left of the hallway and just inside the front door is a large and modern stylish cloakroom.

This hallway leads to the lounge/dining area. It includes a magnificent granite topped dining table with enough room to easily accommodate 8 diners, a marble surround fireplace with fully functioning log burner – ideal for creating a cozy atmosphere during the short Cyprus winter.

Magnificent chandeliers and subdued lighting add to the subtle atmosphere of this impressive room as do the crushed velvet settees and armchairs, the sony cinema sized TV, full length mirrors and top quality rugs and carpets. Numerous glass fronted display cabinets and tastefully selected objets d’art complete the opulent appearance of this extremely generously sized lounge. Most of the furniture is hand made and imported from Italy.

Sliding doors lead to the partially covered veranda which stretches the entire width of the lounge and kitchen and overlooks the pool.

The superbly equipped kitchen includes a delightful granite topped breakfast bar, a granite circular dining table and other high quality white goods including built-in microwave and conventional oven, as well as a miele American style fridge/freezer. A very large storeroom completes the rooms on this floor.

A majestic staircase leads to the first floor and this is where three of the bedrooms can be found. As we approach the top of the stairs, there is a delightful landing with stained glass windows. Incidentally, stained glass windows are an attractive feature throughout this superb property as indeed is the large number of windows which add to the light and fresh appearance of the villa.

To the right of the top of the stairs is bedroom 2 with modern en suite shower facilities, flat screen TV and a door leading to a picturesque balcony shared with the third bedroom.

Bedroom 3 also includes an en suite shower facility and a delightful crushed velvet armchai
