luxury house with terrace for sale Poiana Mărului, Romania

The settlement known today as Bod has its first documentary evidence around 1211, the archaeological records of life found here dating back to the Neolithic. After the Cumans invaded the village for several times, in 1241 it was conquered and burned down by the Tartars, this being the reason why the Saxon gave it the name ‘’Brenndorf’’, which means ‘’the burned village’’. Being just 16 km away from the center of Brasov (10 km from the ring road), Bod is easily accessible, which makes it a favorite target for both the idea of a permanent residence and a holiday home in the proximity of Brasov. The house has a typical Saxon architecture and the current owners have been extremely careful with the renovation process, following mainly two things: on one hand to preserve its character and historical charm, and on the other hand to add all the comfort and facilities necessary for the modern man today. The property consists of 2 houses, with a total of 848 sqm of build area, both completely renovated to a high quality standard. The main house dates back to the early 19th century, as shown by the inscription ‘’1803’’ on one of the solid oak beams, and was built in the specific style of that time, with thick, massive walls and high rooms. The original elements of the house were carefully restored, such as the large solid wood cabinets or the brick arches in the basement. The basement is empty, renovated and clean and can be used as a wine cellar or a spa. The ground floor s rather the living area of the house, with a beautiful and fully equipped kitchen, a dining room, a large, bright and extremely welcoming living room and a well-equipped fitness room that includes a mini-spa with sauna and a shower. The master bedroom can be found upstairs, along with an en-suite bathroom, a dressing and a large terrace that offers a dreamy view over the mountain ridges and also 2 more bedrooms, a bathroom, a desk and a lounge area where you can read or relax in front of the TV. The other house is actually an apartment, where a kitchen, a bathroom, a living room and a bedroom can be found, all of them being fully equipped and tastefully furnished. The 31sqm basement here can also have a useful function, depending on the future destination that the house will receive. The courtyard is completely landscaped with stone, lawn and ornamental shrubs, the automatic irrigation system serving both the inner courtyard and the back garden. The courtyard is also completed with a dining area and a BBQ. Behind the property’s stone walls is a garden that can be used voluntarily by the future owners. The electrically operated gates, the surveillance system with video cameras and the super-efficient heating system complete the comfort and safety need of the modern man, while the stove and the firepit will bring everyone together around the joyos wooden fire in the winter nights. The property enjoys easy access to and from Brasov, and also the newly opened International Airport in Ghimbav is only minutes away offering a quick connection with the world.

Somewhere on the way from Brașov to Intorsura Buzaului, a small river bravely dug his way through the mountains and created one of the most beautiful sceneries in Barsov's vicinity : Valea Dobarlaului. The village with the same name, located 33 km away from Brasov, managed to maintain its authentic beauty unaltered by the tourist exploitation that we see in Bran or Prahova Valley. Leaving the main road and going towards the end of the village, we will reach a small complex of vacation houses that seem to be straight out of an Alps postcard. Surrounded by forest, with the mountain rising straight at the backdoor of the houses, with alleys and common areas beautifully landscaped, with wooden and stone elements happily blended in. Only one of the six houses is fully independent from the energy point of view, with solar panels and heat pump that provide all the necessary energy resources. The house is set on a 1.000 sqm land plot, with a beautifully landscaped garden, with plants, stone, pine trees and fruit trees. In the garden we also find a winter house with a brick BBQ. The house has 4 levels, 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a big living room with a fireplace and a kitchen, a huge dining room for parties and gatherings, and a covered terrace with an amazing view of the mountains. The house is fully furnished, utilated and connected to utilities and therefore fully functional. There are 3 parking places and also public transport that connects the house with Brasov. The scenery is truly spectacular while the options to spend the time are plentiful: hiking or biking the mountains around or the valley, or enjoying the available facilities like the terrace, the BBQ, the garden, the sport pitch or the small lake.The house is waiting for a family who enjoys nature and friends, who enjoy secluding in the mountains in the comfort of a vacation home that offers all facilities needed for modern life.

Additionally, there are two concrete gazebos on the premises. The house, built from brick and concrete, spans three levels: basement, ground floor, and attic, offering a total living space of 200 square meters. It includes 5 rooms, 2 bathrooms, a kitchen, a wine cellar, a terrace, and an underground garage. Originally constructed in the 1960s, the property has been reinforced and expanded, with renovations allowing for the addition of a terrace, the underground garage, and the attic. The courtyard is beautifully landscaped, featuring ornamental shrubs, conifers, and fruit trees across the 8,600 square meter area. The property is connected to electricity, running water and internet. The sewerage is with a septic tank, but it can be connected to the recently completed network of the locality, which is on the street, and the heating is done with a central heating system on pellets or wood. The entire estate is enclosed and offers direct access from an asphalted communal road. One side of the property is bordered by a stream, while the other is flanked by mountains and forest, providing a unique landscape and exceptional privacy.

Often, the most beautiful views are well hidden and require extra effort to find and enjoy them. This is the case with this holiday home, a small gem well hidden at the edge of the forest, at the end of a road that stops once it reaches the house. Located in Dâmbovița county, in Valea Lungă, the house is close enough to Bucharest to be easily accessible, just 115 km away, and only 48 km from Sinaia, which offers multiple usage options. The house is built based on an Austrian project that brings with it the feel of a chalet in the heights of the Alps. It has a unique charm and is constructed, finished, furnished, and equipped with great quality and attention to detail. The house is positioned in a truly special way, practically surrounded by the forest on three sides, and the view from the front terrace is always filled with nature. In terms of layout, the house has three bedrooms, two of which have en-suite bathrooms, a spacious living room with double-height ceilings, and a fully equipped kitchen, totaling a usable area of 180 sqm. The house sits on a fully urbanized land of 2100 sqm, plus an additional 400 sqm from the neighboring forest. The garden is spectacular, the result of the work of a team of landscape engineers who have strived to add even more charm to everything this house has to offer. The land is large enough to provide options for adding more facilities, but a 30 sqm garage is already included and available. The interior of the house emphasizes the uniqueness of the property, with quality furniture and vintage décor pieces that enhance the warmth the house exudes from the first glance. Of course, the house is fully functional, with all basic utilities, and even some extras such as underfloor heating and solar panels.
