House with Large Garden in the Elena Balkan

We offer for sale a solid detached house located in the small and peaceful mountain village of Kostel, set in the heart of the Elena Balkan Mountains, along the valley of the Bŭrzitsa River. The area is known for its beautiful nature, clean air and tranquillity, making it ideal for a countryside retreat.

The house was built around 1940 and features a traditional construction of stone, brick and timber beams. It sits within a spacious 1,000 sq.m garden and is in poor condition, requiring full renovation — an excellent opportunity to restore a property with character and transform it into a holiday home, guesthouse or permanent residence.

The total built-up area is 140 sq.m, arranged over:

a semi-basement cellar level (70 sq.m) with a separate entrance, suitable for conversion into living space, a tavern or studio;

a main residential floor (70 sq.m) accessed via an external stone staircase with a small veranda, comprising an entrance hall and three rooms, two of which are interconnecting.

The property enjoys a south–north orientation, providing good natural light. Original wooden floors and ceilings have been preserved. Additional features include an external toilet, parking space in front of the house, electricity supply and connection to the central water mains.

The house requires complete refurbishment, including roof, plastering, windows and doors, allowing the new owner to renovate entirely according to personal taste.

The location offers excellent conditions for eco-tourism, rural holidays, hunting and fishing, thanks to the nearby river, hunting reserve and the “Byala Krava” Nature Park. A property with strong character and significant potential in an authentic Bulgarian mountain setting.
