Luxury houses for sale Măneciu, Romania

Located right at the feet of Ciucaș Massif and surrounded by the stunning landscapes of the Balaban, Babeș and Zăganului mountains, the small depression of Cheia offers an exquisite painting of meadows, shady forests and clear waters. Initially developed as a small settlement around Cheia Monastery, Cheia Mountain Resort gradually increased due to the expansion of logging. The name Cheia and Cheița actually reflect the narrow aspect of the steep-walled valleys. In the middle of the resort, on the bank of Teleajen river is situated the Villa with Birch Trees, with its large garden, in terraces, decorated with statues of Roman inspiration, from the 19th century. The building is composed of 3 distinct units, with different height regimes, built in a traditional stylistic manner, specific to the mountain area. The interiors are richly decorated with art and collectibles, from hunting trophies and popular objects, to traditional ceramics and works of art. The construction was completed in the late 1970s, with improvements done up to 1990. The Villa with Birch Trees can function both as a residence or a multi-family holiday house, as well as a tourist accommodation unit, following a conversion project. The property is located in the heart of the many birch forests with mountain flowers that unfold during the spring an idyllic landscape, while in autumn, in the mountain valleys, the spruce trees portray marvelous autumnal paintings through their rusty crowns. The main tourist attractions in Cheia and its surroundings are: Cheia Monastery, built between 1835-1839 by two shepherds from Săliștea Sibiului; The Mine Flowers Museum, which houses a valuable collection of 170 pieces with a wide variety of shapes and colors; The Francisc Rainer Museum of Anthropology, the former holiday home of the great scientist, founder of Romanian anthropology, the Suzana Monastery, founded by Suzana Arsicu in 1770, along with the numerous mountain trails in the Ciucaș Mountains. A fairytale house, in a dream location... would be the perfect description for the Villa with Birch Trees.

In the forest the leaves rustle pleasantly and change colors according to the season; the huge orchard also reflects the passage of time, only the tall thuja bushes planted in front of the house remain green and straight. Set in the middle of a vast forest the property stands out for its linear, orderly building with clearly drawn lines - a sense of control and harmony in the midst of overflowing nature. The entrance to the property is on a paved road through the forest, under tree crowns joined together like a tunnel. The road winds, climbs the slope and stops on the platform in front of the building. It consists of a body with a DB+GF+1F height regime that communicates with another one that houses the covered pool. The white masonry and the wood, stone and wrought iron elements compose a rustic style cleansed of excesses and aesthetic noise. Inside, the light filters gently; in the basement there are two living rooms plus bathroom, cellar, laundry room and the garage with central heating. On the ground floor there is a bathroom, a dressing room and the generous kitchen separated by glass from a bright living room with a fireplace and a table for 12 people. The terrace with covered and heated pool and the table for 12 people here invite you to spend unforgettable moments with friends. The attic is dedicated to the night area with three inviting bedrooms, bathrooms and terraces that allow the eye to pass by the army of thuja trees and over the Prahova forest. On the property there is also a pond and 4000 m2 planted with fruit trees. The garage can accommodate 1 car plus 5 more in the parking lot in front of the house. The stable is 60 square meters while a buggy golf cart, a vineyard and snow removal tractor and a tiller await in the annex. The property has an ecological septic tank with 3 compartments, central heating with gasification, emergency generator, and a hydrophore with a reserve of 8000 liters of water from the network. The property, until now used as a holiday destination, is located 15 km from Ploiesti and, being located on a hill, has a beautiful view of the city and the surrounding hills.

There’s a Romanian saying that holds each individual accountable for planting a tree, having a child and building a house during a lifetime, only the road is not strainght for everyone. Sometimes we trim trees planted by other hands, raise children with different DNA and make ours houses originally designed for other families. In the case of the house, this order of things can be a blessing in disguise - between dream and reality, between the drawing board and the final quote, syncopes, derailments and communication errors can happen so that the final result is accepted with regret, assimilated with embarrassment because it constantly reminds us the failure to translate imagination into practice. Having a ready-made house has the advantage of showing you first hand how it solve d one challenge or another, how it negotiated space and light, volume and comfort, concrete and turf. It's easy to feel its atmosphere, to qualify the vibe and evaluate what can be done to make it home moulded to your needs and expectations. For those who do not have the courage, time or energy to harness a building site buying a ready-to-move-in house offers instant gratification. A property with 1320 sqm of land, 7 rooms and an outdoor gazebo located in Breaza offers exactly this opportunity. It can be easily turned into a blank canvas for you to sketch whatever works for your family. The generous windows surfaces invite light inside and guide the gaze outwards to the distant mountains. A generous living room gathers the family around a board game or the friends for taste of the local brandy (for another local product, Breaza bulz, a visit to a nearby tourist sheepfold is recommended). The bedrooms have a comfortable size and the bathrooms have walk-in showers. With a serene atmosphere, surrounded by the green carefully manicured lawn, the property is ready for you, or your designer, to choose styles, color ranges and textures. Breaza (whose name seems to come from Slavic and refers either to a shepherdess with a white strand in her black hair or to a birch forest) is one of the oldest spas being certified since 1928. Its air purity was compared to the one in the Swiss resort of Davos. Although located on a popular route to the mountain resorts of Sinaia, Predeal and Poiana Brasov, Breaza has the advantage of being outside the crowded section that starts from Comarnic onwards. This makes access from Bucharest easy and a holiday home here becomes a destination for every weekend.
