It is ideal for those seeking the peace and quiet of life in the countryside. If you seek a modern home in a rustic setting, this property needs to be viewed.
Located in rolling wooded hills on the edge of a tiny village, the property is lived in year-round and is situated on a recently resurfaced road. It is some 30 minutes’ drive south of Veliko Tarnovo, and 12 minutes from the beautiful revival town of Tryavna. Only five minutes’ drive away is the small town of Tsareva Livada, with hotels, bars, restaurant, swimming pool, train service to Gabrovo/Veliko Tarnovo and shops.
The main living area comprises 150m2 of living space and comprises:
• Fully equipped open kitchen-dining room with a wide range of cupboards and wall units, tiled-floor, a picture window overlooking the garden and the wooded hillside opposite, a wood-burning fireplace with back boiler which provides central heating for ten radiators, wood panelled ceiling and two ceiling light/fans. All modern conveniences are in place, including new appliances: gas/halogen hob, brushed aluminium extractor fan, oven, dishwasher, microwave, large larder fridge, wooden table and six chairs.
• Two good sized south-facing bedrooms, with wooden floors and wood-panelled ceilings.
• There are two more bedrooms, one of which is currently used as a study/library, and the other as a reading room with its own wood burning petchka, and picture window.
• Large lounge with another wood burning stove, two picture windows overlooking the garden and hillside, wood panelled ceiling and floor, ceiling fan/lights. A satellite TV system is installed.
• Two fully-tiled shower rooms, each with halogen lighting, pedestal sink, toilet and heated towel rails. One of the bathrooms has a serpentine heater connected to the central heating.
• Dining room or second lounge, currently used as a mezzanine chillaxing room;
• Utility room comprising washing machine, condensing tumble drier and large freezer.
Most of the rooms have wooden floors. All windows are UPVC double-glazed. The ceilings are all higher than normal, which gives a light, airy, spacious feel to the rooms.
The rear door of the kitchen leads off to a balcony overlooking the garden. It has porcelain terracotta-tiled flooring, a roofed balcony and 2000m2meadow. It is ideal for entertaining guests. The exterior of the house has been recently professionally painted, and the roof of the house comprises large traditional limestone slabs.
Porcelain Terracotta tiled steps lead down from the balcony to a large stone-flagged patio terrace and a beautiful south-facing garden which comprises numerous low-maintenance well-stocked flower beds, and a stone bench from which to enjoy the lovely surrounding views and the stunning sunsets in the valley to the West.
There is internal insulation on all external walls.
The spacious stone basement leading off from the patio is currently being used as a workshop and storage area but it can easily be transformed into a warm and cosy additional living area or self-contained annex.
Water is supplied from the village and is stored in two 1,000L tanks in the cellar. There is also a recently installed borehole which ensures a guaranteed water supply in even the hottest months, and which enables the garden flowers and vegetables to be well watered.
New drainage has been put all around the property and the house has been extensively re-wired. It has three-phase electrical supply and reasonably good internet connectivity.
The house sits on 2000 sq m. of land, the upper part of which is terraced with recently re-laid-refurbished limestone slabs. The upper part of property is partly enclosed with a solid stone wall, with the rest of the land below the garden enclosed by a chain-link fence. A parking area outside will take 2-3 vehicles. Also, inside the property behind large wooden gates and stone walls is a gravelled car port/parking area for two vehicles.
The house and garden are extremely private and situated in very quiet and peaceful location with year-round access provided on a good road.
The surrounding countryside not only offers a panoramic vista, incorporating wooded mountains, valleys, and limestone gorges and escarpments, but also a rich natural environment with a profusion of bird life, numerous mammals, wild flowers and trees.
The property also includes a meadow some 40m wide and 50m long, the top section of which is partly given over to vegetable plots; it has numerous fruit and walnut trees and is mainly grassed. It leads down to a mountain stream within the forest, some 50m from the house, which provides the southern boundary. There is widespread access to numerous paths and rarely-visited walking trails neighbouring the property and its environs.
This really is an ideal property for those seeking a tranquil existence.
The house will likely be sold furnished with most if not all the appliances and most of the furniture is available.
