In the property market, square metres are usually just numbers in a table. For us at Extraland Estates, 500 is not a size — it is a statement, and a clear commitment to the people who trust us: to give them more than a house. To give them room to live.
A 500 m² plot means your home is neither squeezed nor slotted into a standardised complex. It stands in its own setting, where freedom is not merely a feeling — it is designed in. In practice, roughly 120–140 m² of the plot is covered by the house. The remaining 350 m² and more is outdoor space: yard, garden, greenery, parking, quiet.
Putting 350 m² of open ground into scale
That space is not a luxury. It is the minimum we believe someone investing in a home deserves. It is enough room for ten standard swimming pools. More area than two tennis courts. Parking for up to twenty cars, if you ever wanted it. Enough for a vegetable garden, an olive grove, a play area, an outdoor dining table — or all of them at once. And most importantly: it is yours.
Why we do it this way
Offering whole 500 m² plots is tied to the core of our philosophy. Quality of life does not depend only on the square metres inside the house, but mainly on what surrounds it — the sense of freedom, the independence. While most of the market maximises profit by shrinking plots and raising density, we choose more space, fewer restrictions and more value for the person living there.
Daily life in such a home is fundamentally different. There are no shared charges. You share no walls, yards or corridors with anyone. Privacy is a given. Quiet becomes an ally. Children can play outside safely, pets can roam, friends can come for dinner and park without stress. Your outdoor space becomes an extension of your life — not a decorative feature.
We do not build homes to sell them. We create ways of living that respect people, nature and the ordinary day. We want our owners to be proud — to know their investment is not exhausted in the price and the materials, but expressed in the freedom, the quality and the longevity it offers.
Frequently asked questions
- How big is a 500 m² plot in practical terms?
- It comfortably accommodates a family house footprint, parking, a garden with mature planting and usable outdoor rooms, with distance retained from neighbouring homes.
- How much of a plot can you build on in Cyprus?
- Buildable area is governed by the zone's building coefficient, coverage ratio, permitted storeys and setbacks. Always check the specific zone rather than assuming a typical figure.
- Is plot shape important?
- Very. A regular plot with good orientation yields far more usable garden than an irregular one of the same area, because setbacks and access take a larger share.
