The average size of a Cyprus property (dwelling) is 141.4 square metres and it’s the largest in Europe, according to the league table published by Eurostat. Commenting on the figures, Cystat said “If a person lives in a house with an area of more than 141, 4m², he/she lives in a residence that is above the average size of dwellings in Cyprus, which has the biggest average size in the EU.” The country with the lowest average size of dwelling is Romania at 43.9m² compared to the EU average of 95.9m².

Coming in silver medal position in the ‘mine is bigger than yours’ chart is Luxembourg with an average dwelling size of 131.1 m², while Iceland takes bronze with 130.4m².
