House for Sale in Bozhentsite, Gabrovo
Complex of Two Authentic-Style Guest Houses with Sauna in the Bozhentsi Reserve
An exclusive property in the upper part of Bozhentsi: an exceptional complex of two houses built in authentic style in the Bozhentsi Architectural and Historical Reserve, where time seems to have stopped and nature and history merge. Ideal for those seeking tranquillity, cosiness and authenticity, or for investors wishing to develop a successful rural tourism business.
The property is on the edge of Bozhentsi, on a quiet street with easy access and lovely views over the whole village. The total area is about 220 sq. m across the two houses, a covered barbecue area, an outdoor sauna and a well-maintained yard. There are 4 bedrooms in total, accommodating up to 12 people, two fully equipped taverns with fireplaces and a spacious yard enclosed by a stone wall and decorated with flowers and greenery.
The first house is built entirely in traditional Bozhentsi style, with stone masonry on the ground floor and white render with wooden details above. The ground floor has a tavern with fireplace, a fully equipped kitchenette and a bathroom; the upper floor has two cosy bedrooms with wooden ceilings, a bathroom and a traditional veranda (chardak) with amazing views. The second house, also in authentic style, has a tavern with fireplace and a sleeping corner with sofa bed on the ground floor, and on the lower level two bedrooms with a bathroom and two storage rooms. The sauna is in a separate building in the yard. The yard has green areas, flower beds, stone-paved areas, a covered barbecue area and parking for several cars.
The houses have a use permit from 2008, with monolithic structures and insulation combined with traditional Bulgarian architectural elements: stone-clad ground floors, a traditional veranda, and a roof covered with stone slabs. There is a double wooden gate with a stone-slab canopy, terraced yard with dry-stone walls, handmade wooden windows with double glazing and wooden shutters, and carved wooden ceilings by a Tryavna master woodcarver. Floors are mostly wooden boards. The fireplaces have built-in combustion chambers, and other rooms are heated by quality electric convectors. The property is well maintained, secluded and protected by video surveillance. Fully furnished and equipped, ready for owners or guests.
