luxury house with terrace for sale Satu Mare, Romania

Filep Manor is located in the center of Santău, Satu Mare County, and once belonged to the noble family of Ioan Filep. Preserving the character of a former aristocratic residence in the historic region of Crișana, the property stands as an authentic expression of the architectural heritage of northwestern Romania and a rare opportunity for restoration and adaptive reuse. Set on a 6,048 sq m plot, the estate is centered around the main residence, arranged across a ground floor and a mansard level, with a built area of 280 sq m. The interior comprises six rooms, including four bedrooms and three bathrooms, complemented by a spacious open-plan mansard space with significant potential for the expansion of existing functions or the realization of a new architectural vision. Located in the heart of the village, the property combines accessibility with the peaceful atmosphere and distinctive character of a historic residence. The scale of the grounds and the existing layout provide the flexibility to accommodate a wide range of future uses, from a private residence or countryside retreat to a boutique hotel, cultural venue, event destination, or hospitality project with a strong sense of identity. Santău lies within the historic region of Crișana, an area shaped by the multicultural heritage of northwestern Romania and its proximity to the cities of Carei and Satu Mare. The location, close to the Hungarian border, further enhances the property's accessibility while creating opportunities for tourism, cultural, and educational initiatives focused on the preservation and promotion of regional heritage. Filep Manor provides the foundation for a project capable of bringing renewed contemporary relevance to a property of authentic historic identity.

Nestled in the heart of Coaș, just fifteen kilometers from Baia Mare, this traditional Maramureș estate embodies the quiet charm and cultural depth of northern Romania. Set on an expansive 8,001-square-meter plot, the property offers both intimacy and scale — a rare canvas where history, craftsmanship, and nature coexist in perfect harmony. Discreetly positioned away from the village road, the ensemble comprises a main house and a traditional barn, each preserving the authentic Maramureș architecture with carved wooden details and timeless proportions. The main house, dating from 1953, welcomes visitors with a sculpted red portico and hand-carved columns reminiscent of Brâncuși’s artistry, while its interior reveals exposed beams, warm textures, and serene valley views. Nearby, the traditional barn — anchored by its red wooden gate and stone base — stands as a testament to regional heritage. Its generous loft invites conversion, offering possibilities for guest suites, creative studios, or communal living spaces that connect contemporary comfort with the soul of the countryside. Beyond its architectural beauty, the estate’s vast land opens a world of possibilities — whether envisioned as a refined countryside retreat, a charming boutique lodging, an eco-tourism destination, or an intimate private residence surrounded by nature. Its natural topography and privacy make it equally suitable for landscape design, orchards, or wellness-oriented development. The property is connected to the electrical grid, features a 6 kW solar panel system and a private well with potable water, while upcoming infrastructure projects will allow connection to the gas, public water, and internet networks. Surrounded by rolling hills, shimmering lakes, and heritage landmarks such as Lacul Coaș, Lacul Albastru, and Dezunii Land, this is a rare opportunity to revive, reimagine, and honor an authentic piece of Maramureș — a place where time stands still, awaiting its next chapter.

The town of Şomcuta Mare is located in the south-western part of Maramureș County, connected to the European road E58, Baia Mare - Cluj Napoca, at a distance of 25 km from Baia Mare. The popular tradition says that the name of Șomcuta Mare springs from the cornel shrubs that were found in abundance in these places, that once gave the name of the forest near Văleni village – "Corneasa". Regarding this forest, it is said that it stretched over the borders of Şomcuta Mare and that, in the middle of it, there used to be a fountain, around which the community developed. From the first history records, it is shown that Șomcuta Mare had a predominantly Romanian population. This is proven by all the evidence that has been preserved in this regard about the Chioar Domain – where Șomcuta Mare was a part of. One of the historical monuments in Șomcuta Mare, this imposing building was built by the Austro-Hungarian State, between 1880 and 1890, to function as the Chiorean Commercial Bank, the first bank in the area. Currently, the building is connected to all utilities and services: gas, electricity, water supply and drainage. A few years ago, more precisely in 2003, the building had its roof and windows replaced, thus carrying out an important renovation process. Arranged on the following floor system: lower ground + ground floor + first floor + attic, this building provides that investment that you have always been looking for: its positioning and layout represent potential for various developments. It can bring many further exciting opportunities, starting from the industrial production ones to commercial ones. The building can function efficiently as a hotel, restaurant, kindergarten, school or nursing home. It accommodates 37 rooms and 5 bathrooms, with a pragmatic planning. Photo: Florin Pepene

The proud Maramuresan gate stands straight at the street and invites you inside. The fence in which it is trapped, made of woven canes and with narrow eaves, allows the visitor to see from the outside only the roof of the traditional shingled building. Between the stone foundation and the attic, the houses breathe through a verandah made of artistically cut wood; from here the view is wonderful, over trees, valleys and pastures undisturbed by man. The four houses that share their yard are each arranged on the ground floor and attic; the renovation of one of them has been completed, the others are still being worked on. To encourage socializing they are served by a gazebo where there is an oven and grill. The interior is chic, with the living area on the ground floor in the colors of the sky and the night area upstairs, in the shades of wood that outline the ceiling. Breb, the flagship village of Maramures, is an extremely sought-after destination and an experience highly desired by tourists is living in traditional houses. Many of the existing ones have been converted into guesthouses, with varying degrees of comfort depending on the attention to detail of the conversion project.

Located in the authentic village of Breb, SunRai Creasta Cocoșului / SunRai Rooster’s Crest spans over 32,000 square meters of natural landscape, offering a rare combination of cultural heritage, comfort, and development potential in one of Romania’s most picturesque regions. The estate comprises six traditional oak-wood houses, each carefully restored and rebuilt in the spirit of Maramureș craftsmanship. Every structure preserves original details — carved wooden porches, visible beams, and handcrafted joinery — while integrating modern comfort and practicality. Together, they form a small, self-contained hamlet, a peaceful environment designed for both living and hosting. At the heart of the property lies a fully equipped kitchen, where cooking becomes a communal experience, and an elegant wine cellar, home to natural wines and local spirits. From the open terrace, panoramic views stretch toward the Creasta Cocoșului Ridge, offering spectacular sights at sunrise and sunset. Beyond its residential area, the domain includes a large organic greenhouse, animal and farm zones, and generous outdoor spaces — creating a self-sustaining and authentic environment deeply connected to the rhythm of the land. Future development plans include a cultural barn, envisioned as a multifunctional space for art, community gatherings, and events under the name “SubSoare at SunRai.” This addition will further enhance the property’s purpose as a place where tradition and creativity coexist naturally. With its scale, location, and existing infrastructure, SunRai Creasta Cocoșului offers multiple development possibilities. It can continue as a hospitality business or eco-retreat, evolve into a cultural or wellness center, or become an exceptional private residence or holiday estate. The generous land and thoughtful design allow for further expansion in a sustainable and coherent manner. Above all, SunRai Creasta Cocoșului represents a project built with respect for nature, tradition, and people — a domain that stands out through balance, authenticity, and purpose. A place where the calm rhythm of Maramureș life continues, offering space, meaning, and connection in every detail.
