House for Sale in Donkovtsi, Veliko Tarnovo
Estate with Two Houses, Restored Balkan House, Jacuzzi and 5,891 sq. m Garden near Yovkovtsi Dam in Donkovtsi for Sale in Veliko Tarnovo Province, Bulgaria
A unique property is for sale amid the beautiful nature of the Balkan Mountains (Stara Planina), close to Yovkovtsi Dam, in the village of Donkovtsi. It combines tranquillity, space and all the amenities for year-round living. The well-maintained plot of 5,891 sq. m includes two separate residential buildings, a spacious landscaped garden, relaxation areas and magnificent panoramic views of the surrounding hills and forests.
The first house is an authentic Balkan house with a footprint of 159 sq. m, thoroughly restored with great attention to detail. During the renovation the building was taken back to its stone walls, keeping only the original wooden beams; the roof, electrical and plumbing systems, heating and all finishes were completely replaced. The ground floor has a bedroom, a living room with kitchen, a bathroom with toilet, a corridor and a large room that could be converted into additional bedrooms. An external staircase leads to the upper floor, with a hall and covered terrace, a living room and two bedrooms. A 69 sq. m extension and shelter provide extra space for relaxing and gatherings.
The second house is built to modern standards and offers a functional layout and comfort. The lower level has two large garages. Thanks to the slope of the land, the living floor has direct access from the yard and includes a spacious veranda overlooking the property, a traditional tavern with a large kitchen, a bright living room and a bedroom with panoramic views of the Balkan Mountains. An internal staircase leads to a well-converted attic floor with a bedroom and a cosy sitting area. There are also two storage rooms. Each house has its own water-based central heating system and solar panels for domestic hot water.
The garden is a real asset: spacious, well kept and landscaped, with wide lawns, fruit trees and many places to relax, including an area with a jacuzzi. The property is suitable for two families living permanently, or for a tourism business, guest house, family compound or high-end holiday home.
