Address: Archiepiskopou Kyprianou 93 The building is a single-storey house built in the interwar period (in 1920, according to DLS; in 1930, according to other sources) and is of neoclassical style. It is considered a remarkable example of that period’s architecture, with simple decorative details. It is constructed partly from local sandstone and partly from adobe. Its hipped roof is composed of timber beams and roman tiles. The location of the structure at the end of the plot creates a garden that separates it from the street. A semi-outdoor space is formed at the front façade, which is defined by the plastered interior surfaces and the simplified columns. The layout of the columns unites the whole building. Interesting elements of the building are the impressive wooden construction of the entrance door with the wood-lined recess, the stone frames of the opening, as well as the garden with the vine arbour above the path to the entrance. The house is included in the catalogue of listed buildings. In 2013, the owners requested to given tax exemptions but their request was declined because, in an inspection from the Department of House Planning and Housing, it was revealed that the building lacks of proper maintenance. The building is today occasionally used.
