UK home buyers and investors looking for an affordable property with strong long term potential need look no further than the Thalassa Beach Resort on the Karpas Peninsula in North Cyprus. With its undisputed and internationally recognised land title, this development is a fantastic opportunity to buy in one of the Mediterranean's most stunning beachfront locations. Prices start from just GBP59,950.

Thalassa Beach is the largest and most prestigious beachfront development in Northern Cyprus and the last scheme in the area with permission to build right up to the shoreline. There is a selection of 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments, ranging in size from 65 square metres to 150 square metres, some with balconies and some with private pools.

The development boasts an Aqua resort with large communal pool, private beach with water activities, children's activity area, lagoon with water sports, spa, gym, Turkish bath, massage area, sauna, restaurant/beach bar, management offices and a retail/commercial area.

Thalassa Beach Resort is set in the stunningly beautiful conservation area of Bafra. This region is renowned for its unspoilt beauty with glorious sandy beaches, clean blue Mediterranean waters and a ruggedly spectacular coastline all framed by the Besparmak mountain range. The development is also just 20 minutes drive from one of the largest yacht marinas in the Mediterranean which will accommodate 300 berths.

Bafra is quickly becoming a world famous hideaway due to increasing tourism at the quality end of the market. One of its major draws is the five-star Kaya Artemis Hotel which is conveniently located near to Thalassa Beach.

Tim Morgan, Managing director of Emerging Real Estate, commented: 'Northern Cyprus is a stunning country and offers huge long term potential for both investors and holiday home owners thanks to its fantastic climate, scenery and people. There have been a lot of problems with land issues but we are pleased to say that this development is fully recognised and is a safe purchase.'

Tim concluded: 'We have sourced all the relevant paperwork and legal documentation for added piece of mind. Our team is on hand to talk clients through all of this so they know their dream investment in the sun is secure.'
