This is a property with a solid brick house and an exceptional view that overlooks the village and surrounding hills. The land totals 1,470 square meters (15,822.9483126 square feet).
The property has a large garden with fruit trees and a large grassy area, which could benefit from landscaping. The two-story house’s interior walls are newly replastered and repainted. However, the house is in need of modernization and renovation to make it livable by Western standards. But as you can see from the pictures it is in good structural order. There is an outhouse in the garden – though there is water and electricity connected to the house. The building’s total area is 170 square meters (1,829.8647708 square foot).
The house has two separate floors (connected by outside stairs). Upstairs there are three rooms, one of which is quite large. The rooms upstairs get a lot of sunlight and two of the rooms have a phenomenal view overlooking the village and the hills beyond. Downstairs there are four very small rooms. Throughout the house, the rooms are smaller than we are used to by Western standards, and the floor plan is unusual by Western standards. Plus, downstairs, the ceilings are low. The entire house needs to have new floors put in, and could use new windows. However, keep in mind that once you purchase the property, if you would like our assistance undertaking these renovations we will be able to assist you.
The house is in the village of Kostandenez, a medium-sized village with a population that exceeds 1,000 people. The village is quiet and offers beautiful views of the surrounding hills. There is all-year access to the village. The village’s amenities include: daily public transportation, a food store, land phone line, one restaurant, 24-hour medical service and a post office. About three miles from the village there is a home supply store. English citizens are welcomed in this village by the mayor and residents, and six houses have already been bought by English citizens here. From this location it is easy to take advantage of many activities, including horseback riding, hunting, fishing and hiking.
