The international roperty Awards… so much more Europe is the second region to come under the scrutiny of the judging panel in this year’s International Property Awards. I’m now able to report that it has produced a large number of impressive entries across 29 different countries. New countries competing for the first time include er ia eorgia a er ai an and Turkmenistan. i would like to thank all those companies for taking part and also for continually raising the bar of excellence within the property industry.

Taking the title of Europe’s Best Property (Single Unit) is Askanis Group’s Villa La Traviata at Opera. This stunning, front line villa in Limassol, Cyprus has direct access to the beach, landscaped gardens and a private swimming pool. Complete with elegant living and dining areas with floor to ceiling windows, its large balconies overlook the Mediterranean Sea. Best Development (Multiple Units) has been awarded to Elit Grand Palas in Turkey

by Delmar Construction Company. (shown above). Built in neoclassical style and inspired by Turkish Islamic architecture, it offers residents a fabulous lifestyle with a host of recreational facilities and world-class services.

Warm wood, natural materials and timeless, rustic chic are just a few of the striking elements that won L’Arctique ski chalet in France the Best Interior Design (Private Residence) award for Halo Design Interiors.

Top scoring winners from the European Property Awards (including those mentioned above) will now go forward to be re-judged alongside other top scorers from Asia Pacific, Africa, the Americas, Arabia and the UK. The ultimate winners will be announced at the grand final of the International Property Awards in London later this year. Many congratulations to these companies and to all the other winners listed within this magazine.

I would also like to emphasise the great business opportunities which arise from the many gatherings generated by the awards. Throughout the year we assemble the best companies in the property industry at our business days which take place at each of the awards’ presentations. All entrants and award winners are invited to take part in these events throughout 2012 and beyond.
