Everything I ever dreamed of was a home of my own

A roof of your own was once the simplest ambition in Cyprus. Here is exactly where it stopped being simple — and how more land, further out, brings it back within reach.

If we all run ahead to our thoughts — our memories — we have said this phrase at least once. And what did we all dream of, beyond health, which will always come first? A roof. A roof that belongs to us; a roof that will shelter our dreams and our family.

"Everything I ever dreamed of was my own home." A phrase that, when we were small, sounded like the easiest thing in the world to achieve. Today, you could fairly say it has become quite difficult.

Prices on one side, compromise on the other

On one side, outrageous prices — with some properties reaching a million euro and others exceeding it, forgetting entirely the most important thing: the human factor.

On the other side, compromise. Compromise on dreams, with most people falling back on solutions like renting — and doing so inside the chaos of the city.

More land, more life

Extraland Estates has laid firm foundations with the human being as its measure: the needs of each of us, of the family we have or want to create, quality of life, and a better tomorrow. Through the area where it works, it brings forward culture, tradition, memory, roots and freedom — things we assumed were a given and then forgot, and which you cannot really live inside the noise of the city.

Extraland Estates operates in Sotira, Limassol — untouched land and, without doubt, a very promising area. With people at the centre, it offers more land at accessible prices: sustainable homes of 143 m² built on plots of around 477 m², with three bedrooms and a pool, with prices starting from €370,000.

Given the size of each plot, the buyer has room for further development, while the value rises at the same time. The reason is Sotira's geographic position, and the development already under way in the neighbouring areas.

Frequently asked questions

What is the “Everything I ever dreamed of” idea about?
It captures how families actually describe a home — space, light, a garden, room to grow — rather than the specification language used in property listings.
How does that translate into a house?
It sets priorities: plot and orientation first, usable outdoor rooms second, and finishes last rather than first.
Is this only about families with children?
No. The same priorities — quiet, daylight, outdoor space and low running costs — apply to couples, remote workers and retirees.
