What a adu / accessory dwelling project looks like here

The Buffer Zone is administered by UNFICYP across Cyprus.

Most parcels are uninhabited and frozen since 1974.

Construction within the Zone requires UN authorisation.

Nicosia ADUs — detached, attached, and conversion paths — scoped against PEI + Streets & Buildings Cap. 96 + ETEK + Antiquities Cap. 31 setback + height + parking variances. In Buffer Zone area specifically, pre-1974 frozen fabric + venetian-walled stone (old nicosia) stock means adu / accessory dwelling scope is shaped by the neighborhood's dominant construction typology. Baily's Nicosia scoping flow factors buffer zone (un-administered) consultation and cyprus antiquities law (cap. 31) into the estimate before a contractor is involved.

Origin

Who is Baily?

Baily is named after Francis Baily — an English stockbroker who retired at 51, became an astronomer, and in 1836 described something on the edge of a solar eclipse that nobody had properly articulated before: a string of bright beads of sunlight breaking through the valleys along the moon’s rim.

He wasn’t the first to see them. Edmond Halley saw them in 1715 and barely noticed. Baily’s contribution was clarity — describing exactly what was happening, in plain language, so vividly that the whole field of astronomy paid attention. The phenomenon is still called Baily’s beads.

That’s what we wanted our AI to do. Every inbound call and text has signal in it — a homeowner’s real question, a timeline, a budget, a hesitation that means “yes but.” Baily listens to every one, 24/7, and finds the beads of light.

Baily was a businessman before he was a scientist. That’s our vibe too.
