The Forester’s Cottage

Charming Stone House and Development Land for sale, with clear title deeds, no mortgage or encumbrance.

In Milia, near Fyti, Pafos district, Cyprus.

Milia is a tranquil village, 2000 feet / 660 metres up in the hills above Pafos. Cool in summer (6-8 degrees C below Nicosia) and quiet all year round. This unique property offers traditional Cypriot stone-built construction, a large garden full of mature fruit and nut trees, plus a chance to add a second house, if desired.

Approximately midway between Pafos and Polis, Milia is possibly the smallest, most peaceful village in Cyprus, with only six permanent residents. A quick drive from Polemi and a short walk from Fyti and Lasa, the village benefits from cooling breezes and abundant wildlife. The house for sale has sea views to the south (on a clear day) and mountain and forest views to the east.

If you are looking for a peaceful retreat in a delightful hilltop village, look no further. If you have an eye for a development opportunity, this could be an ideal location. With two vehicle entrance gates, this property could easily be sub-divided and a second house with spectacular views built at the end of the garden.

Constructed from large stone blocks, this sturdy house was built in 1975 and features a master double bedroom, second bedroom and hall, living-dining room, plus a small kitchen and bathroom.

Outside is a second w/c, storage sheds and a large kleftiko oven that makes amazing pizzas. The property benefits from all round fencing for security.

Milia is a bird-watcher’s paradise. Relax and listen to the hoopoe calling in the morning, the shrill cries of bee eaters through the day and Scops owls hooting at night.
