luxury real estate for sale Ozunca-Băi, Romania

Captured in a photograph with the sun behind it, illuminating and hiding it from view at the same time, the Nagy mansion seems to have the power to transport its guest back to the 19th century, just as Gil, played by Owen Wilson, returned to the 1920s in the film Midnight in Paris, directed by Woody Allen in 2011. The idea of traveling back in time is often used in the description of properties and therefore subject to demonetization; in the case of the Nagy mansion, it stands in certain rooms where the past comes to life through a special stove, through pieces of solid wood furniture carefully crafted and polished by time such as the two sumptuous original Saxon beds. The mansion, built in 1802 by the Hungarian noble family Nagy, today completely renovated and brought up to modern living standards, preserves original architectural details, despite its troubled history - in 1992, when the property was reacquired, it no longer had doors or windows; after the nationalization in 1949 it was used by the local IAS including to house day laborers. The story goes that Szotyori Nagy Tamásné, mistress of the manor in the middle of the 19th century, was a fearless woman who not only went to the front to look for her hero son, but offered shelter to the persecuted and, after the revolution was crushed, sent parcels to those incarcerated. In 1884, during the election campaign, in the building that later became a granary, the owner of the place hosted the well-known writer Jókai Mór. Today, the entrance through the wide gate shows a circle of flowers whose role, in addition to the decorative one, is to guide today's horse-drawn carriages to the entrance of the building. With a decent exterior and a small portico the mansion consists of a spacious ground floor and a generous attic dominated by the protective red roof over them; the two windows placed above the entrance, on the left and right are known as the queen's eyes, belonging to the most desirable room in the building. The mansion functions today as a guesthouse and has 3 rooms with matrimonial beds and 4 double rooms, all with their own bathroom. The dining room can accommodate 70 people and the old cellar is now a wine cellar, keeping visible both parts of the original foundation wall and the old roof tiles reused as flooring. The sauna, the salt room and other ways to spend quality time complete the generous offer of the outside – walks through the silence of wheat fields and potato crops or visiting the Balvanyos baths, the Cheile Varghisului nature reserve, the birch forest in Reci, the Kalnoky castle and the Zabola domain (Covasna being also known as the Land of Manors). The town of Coșeni is 13km from Prejmer, 19km from Harman and 28km from the center of Brașov. photo Florin Pepene

A trees covered hill in the back, a lazy river flowing nearby, plenty of fresh green from the forest, a clear blue sky and the feeling of that perfect vacation home! We are in Covasna, at Mereni, an old village situated at an altitude of 607 meters, and this property looks exactly like in our grandparents fairytales. With a great location on the river banks, surrounded by hills and forests, with a great view over the valley, it has all it needs for a perfect retreat: a large enough yard for all sorts of activities, plenty of rooms for the entire family, a cozy fireplace for the winter nights, a BBQ, a swing and a small pond to cover everyone’s interests. The yard has 1439 sqm and is nicely landscaped while the interior of the house offers all the needed comfort: a kitchen, a large living room, three bedrooms, plenty of terrace space to admire the surroundings, and a garage. Very well located in a dreamy natural landscape, the house in Mereni can quickly become the favourite place of the entire family.

Harghita is an area whose appreciation has grown spectacularly in recent years; the green of the forests, the beauty of the clean and street-lined villages, the picturesque cows returning from grazing in the evening, the only 100 km to Brașov or Târgu Mureș and the long list of tourist attractions in the area are solid reasons to consider an investment in a plot of land and real estate developments on it. The land we are proposing has a more than generous surface area, over 80,000 square meters, so that it can host ambitious plans – exclusive private residence, tourist complex, clinic or senior center, event halls, sports center or even all together, a mini-town built from scratch conforming to the demands of the present. The owner is willing to sell and develop a building for the buyer. If you need additional arguments, we offer you 17 activities and tourist attractions in the area: Salina Praid, Cheile Bicazului, Cheile Vârghișului, Roșu lake, Sfântă Ana lake, Zetea dam, Băile Tușnad and Borsec resorts, Mini Transilvania park near Odorheiul Secuiesc, Csíki Brewery in Sânsimion, Mikó castle, Lazar castle, Székelytámadt; Odorheiu Secuiesc fortress, Șugău cave, Tinovul Mohoș protected area, Narcissus Glade and the Lonely Stone.

If we are to look for the right penthouse, then the one on Mihai Viteazu Street in Brasov should be the closest benchmark. Central location with fast access both to the historical center and to the business area of the city, plenty of room to accommodate even a large family, quality finishing and furniture, and on top of everything an amazingly large total area of terrace, by far the largest terrace area in Brasov. From areas point of view, we have a total of 195 sqm split on two floors. The upper level, accessible by an elevator that opens directly inside the apartment, consists mainly of the daytime area with a large living room with full size windows that bring the Tampa inside the home. The kitchen is open and fully fitted with top tier appliances and furniture. Also at this level we have the master bedroom with its own bathroom and dressing, an additional bedroom, a bathroom, and an additional large dressing room converted from and extra unused bedroom. The master bedroom opens on a 56 sqm terrace, while the living room is flanked on both sides by two terraces , a 48 sqm one and a smaller one of only 15 sqm but with a great view towards the mountains. Also from this level, one can access the rooftop terrace, a huge 360 degrees, 128 sqm area that offers an unobstructed view over the city and towards the mountains. At the lower level we have 3 rooms and a bathroom that can be used at separate bedrooms, or the entire floor can be used as a separate apartment. Also at this level we have plenty of sunshine that we can catch on the 93 sqm terrace or on the smaller balcony of 9 sqm. On top of everything, the penthouse comes with two underground parking spaces plus two very useful storage units of 4 sqm each. Very well located and having an unmatched terrace area, this penthouse can easily become a very special permanent residence or can successfully be used for long-term or short-term renting.

Imagine a weekend getaway at home, in Poiana Brașov. It starts with morning light being lazily filtered through the eyelashes; the bedrooms’ walls are covered with wood which makes the light look like liquid honey. Breakfast is served in the summer on the generous balcony that surrounds the house - the coffee enhances the visual acuity and the mountains in front are distinguished in dozens of shades and hues of bright green. A few poppy and vanilla croissants from a good bakery put the smile in its place even in winter, when the fire keeps the cold away but not the thrill - Poiana Brașov is the best destination for snow sports. The resort is located at the foot of Postavarul at an altitude of 1030m and evokes hiking in the mountains in the cool of summer, the dizzying brass of autumn leaves and the squeaking of snow under boots in winter. It is certainly the place where concepts such as burnout vanish in thin air. Active rest in the strong ozone-rich air has therapeutic effects even when walking means simply foraging for mushrooms or blackberries in the forest, having a picnic in the pasture or reading on a meadow. The mountain routes Cristianul Mare and Pietrele lui Solomon start right from Poiana Brașov; however, the cable car and the ski lift allow you to enjoy the landscapes with minimal effort. Poiana means not only natural areas but also modern infrastructure suitable for the expectations of today’s tourist - being a premium destination the resort enjoys a vibrant life in its restaurants, hotels with heated pools and attractive clubs, in addition to options such as a horse riding center and a tourist sheepfold. Poiana Brașov manages to effortlessly keep its image as the most famous, attractive and envied mountain holiday location in the country. After a full day on one or more of the nine slopes (skiing is officially documented here since 1895) the sight of the silver fir trees guarding the entrance to the house is a joy to the eye and the promise of total relaxation in the sauna. The fire is burning in the fireplaces, the tea is bubbling in the samovar and friends are starting to gather at a long table that promises a memorable conviviality. The property is a redefinition of luxury in mountain terms, in which natural materials such as wood, stone, wool and fur invite nature inside and create a calm hunting cottage-like atmosphere.The house is well integrated in the landscape, both chromatically and volumetrically. Its garden’s perimeter is smartly demarcated by high vegetation thus obtaining a soothing view for the eyes but also intimacy. In addition, the property is located in a low-density area which offers a low level of visual and auditory stress. The five en suite bedrooms make it suitable for an extended family or groups, with a usable built area of 600 square meters (ten rooms in total) providing space and privacy for everyone. The house was built in 2008 and the interior design easily allows for re-decoration that gives a more personal touch. The property can be used as a holiday home but also as a long-term refuge, away from the noisy city, dusty to the point of dehydration in summer or dominated by mud and concrete in winter. Things to do in the area: • Local gastronomy - try the ischler, a cookie with walnuts and chocolate, available in countless variants proposed by Brasov restaurants. • The medieval fortress of Râșnov, one of the best preserved and restored peasant fortresses in Transylvania. It was here that famous movie scenes were shot (The Immortals”, Dacii, Mihai Viteazul, or Columna but also Oscar-winner “Cold Mountain, starring Jude Law and Nicole Kidman). • Prejmer Fortified Church, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, 700 years old, the first line of defence against the attacks of the Turks coming through the Buzău Pass (don't miss the organ of death). Bonus - go before Lent to enjoy fasching, the pancake festival specific to this village. Photo & video: Tudor Prisecaru

Located in one of the best residential areas of Brasov, ideally placed at the edge of the forest, this is one of the most attractive available properties of the city not only due to its positioning but also due to the large land plot and overall amenities.

The size of the house is big, with a footprint area of 629 sqm and a total built area of 2127 sqm, split on four levels. The ground floor is dedicated to relaxation and well being, this is why here is where we find the spa, with a large pool, a sauna and a hot tub, then we have a living area, a very large kitchen and a nice hall way with a monumental stairway connecting the upper levels.

The attic is a large open space area that can be turned into whatever the next owner will need it to be.

Bune ș ti, Bundorf, Bondorf, Bondref, Bodndref, Bodendorf, Budendorf, Sz á szbuda - Romanian, German, Hungarian. All these names indicate the same village in Bra ș ov, Transylvania, conveniently located between medieval Sighi ș oara (36 km) and famous Viscri (6 km). Lunca Popii mansion is located here, magically overlooking the village’s fortified church. It has a typical Saxon fence that blocks the view of the curious and keeps the household quiet. The tall, rounded gate and the property fence retain their original brick roof, one that has been blown away by the wind, washed away by the rain, and covered with moss of the yesteryear. Two huge boulders guard the gate like two sheepfolds. Everything inspires a quiet life, clear directions and an attitude of looking life straight in the eye. Only the bench leaning timidly on one side of the gate speaks of the fragility of human nature, always looking for closeness to the other. The stones leading to the house with the raised porch are from local, from a nearby riverbed or ridge, not bought from a DIY store. In the evening, the outdoor lighting springs from the grass and projects a warm light that invites to storytelling and stargazing. Although the construction is recent, it give the impression of a wealthy Saxon peasant household - the cleanliness of the white and the warmth of the wood create that rare air of seriousness and stability. The winter here is snowy just like in our grandparents' childhood stories. In summer, on the other hand, the yard is filled with tall grass, flowers and trees with rich canopy; the sunbeds and the table with stone chairs are overwhelmed by this domestic green, vibrant, refreshing and restful. As in any organised household, the bread oven and the fountain with a handmade clay jug cannot be missing. The wood stack promises warm winters but also deliciously smoked grill ed food. The courtyard is configured on the typical Saxon model, divided by the large house and adjacent buildings, in this case a garage for two cars and a private parking space for another five. Enjoying an excellent position in the country’s hot area of ​​ rural tourism, the property can function both as a single-family holiday home and as a tourist cottage for groups of up to 14 people. If desired, there is the possibility of extension with constructions on a similar surface - the property includes a plot of 1221 sqm adjacent to the current courtyard of 1233 sqm. The villa has 700 sqm; was built in 2009 which gives it all the facilities of a modern, comfortable home. Exposed oak beams mark the impeccable white of the walls. Crafted tile stoves and generous fireplaces cozy up the atmosphere. The interior has an almost spartan air in the bedrooms, but this austerity is broken by small details with the glamor of faded bronze from other times. Three bedrooms on the ground floor have access to a bathroom and a bathroom, while the fourth has its own bathroom. Three other bedrooms are upstairs, with access to an impeccably polished solid wood staircase. Two of these bedrooms of about 16 sqm each share a bathroom but the strong point here is the master bedroom which surprises not only by it 40 sqm -area but also by the wooden bed canopy, dressing room, bathroom and private terrace. The view is dreamy - the hills of Transylvania are green and look like pastel watercolours from afar. The living space, with a library and living room of 80 sqm, includes a table for 12 people, a fireplace and a game table. In summertime the 60 sqm terrace on the porch becomes an al fresco living-room. The kitchen offers ample space ( 40 square meters ) ready to receive between its walls laughter, warmth and stories (the traditional stove in the well-equipped kitchen has a supply of wood on the right side, hidden from view by a curtain wrinkled like grandma's skirts).

When you hear ”Saxon house” the first thing that comes to your mind might be Prince Charles and his property in Viscri. An important unit of the local heritage, the Saxon houses are much more than that. More than 200 villages and many cities in Transylvania bear the mark of the Germanic civilization. And the Saxon house in Codlea, built between 1905-1907, makes no exception. The high gates, which shield the property from any indiscretion, allow for an impressive house to meet the curious eyes with its large windows, wooden beams and poles in sight, with the air of a miniature fortress. With a usable area of 450 sqm, the property is completely restored and the current owner paid a special attention to the preservation of the original architectural details. The oak carpentry has been refurbished, but for a better thermal comfort, another row of laminated wood windows has been added. The wooden doors and door frames are also modern additions, high quality replicas of the original elements. Two rows of parallel beams pass, at a height of 3.5 meters, the ceiling of the house. The attic, an open space of 130 sqm, has its own bathroom and is protected by a recently rebuilt roof with double-glazed tiles. The garage with automated access and separate central heating on each level are just some discreet elements of modernity in a context that preserves the charm of a traditional Saxon dwelling. And the property benefits from a real bonus: in the same yard there is a completely separate house with an area of more than 200 sqm, disposed on two levels. Built in 1973, this home is fully modernized and equipped. The land on which the property is located is also impressive. Spread over an area of 1826 square meters, it is composed of two distinct parts: a pretty cobbled courtyard, confined by ornamental plants, and a terraced garden with fruit trees. The areas are separated by massive walls that enhance the appearance of the typical fortified Saxon properties. In addition, the location, a keyword on the real estate market, is a special one. The property is in the downtown of Codlea, 15 kilometers away from Brasov and only 5 kilometers from the future Ghimbav airport. From the yard of the Saxon House you can admire the Postăvaru massif, and the proximity of the DN1 national road makes it an excellent choice for those who appreciate mobility.

Between the Bistrița and the Giurgeului Mountains, on the Bistricioara river valley near Borsec, there is the Corbu village, a small corner of heaven surrounded by secular forests. Here is our traditional domain, perfect for nature lovers, where they can move immediately. Everything was built and arranged in the smallest details: from the main residence villa, to the guest houses and the breeding grounds, from the terrace from which you can admire a spectacular panorama, to the wooden pavilion that invites you to relax, to the bridge over the creek that runs through the property tot the sauna and other modern equipment... all this can transpose you into a fairytale world, away from the urban tumult. Our domain, close to the Borsec mineral waters, in the middle of the nature, seems to be the perfect place for a better, healthier life.

This household is proud and rich, protected from the eyes of strangers by a solid brick wall; to the outside world it shows only a facade wearing a decorative belt in the colors of summer wheat. A flirty plant motif, a tulip, indulges in cartouches on the wall. The blue shutters border windows that open inside to large and bright rooms with beams on the ceiling and wonderful stoves - original stoves with tiles, corner stoves, high stoves, stoves built like an elegant sideboard that instantly catches the eye. The doors are often double and painted in the traditional green colour of the area; cheerfully painted benches preserve the custom of the place. The large courtyard, with its vaulted gate once used by ox carts, is today filled with well-kept grass and shrubs; cobblestone paths line the house and plants grow on the corners near the gutters. Here and there the windows open among the leaves and branches that grow hanging on the wall, creating that rustic atmosphere that promises coolness and pampering. There are four traditional houses located on 9000 square meters of urban land. Their age varies and starts from 1862 when a house with one bedroom, bathroom, hall and cellar was erected. Another construction is from 1950 and offers two bedrooms, two bathrooms and hallways, cellar and shed/stable. In addition to these there is a building with two rooms, hall, bathroom, shed and workshop and another with shed, restaurant (living room), kitchen and technical room (on the first floor there is an apartment with living room, bedroom and bathroom). Although they have complete autonomy and can be owned individually by different owners, they can also work excellently as a tourist guesthouse or event center because they are also served by a building where the spa area, deckchair, sauna, and terrace are arranged. The village is not large - a settlement of houses lined up along the road, most of them having green fields at the bottom of the yard, typical of the hilly relief, from the Hârtibaciu plateau. Located 20km from Viscri, the emblematic village of Transylvania popularized by King Charles the III of Great Britain, Grânari enjoys the same Saxon features and traditions but avoids the congestion and prices of its more famous neighbor. photo Florin Pepene

The year of construction isn’t precisely noted, most likely being somewhere between 1913-1914. Situated on a highland at 600 m altitude and integrated in the picturesque landscape, the Stirbey Palace was designed by architect Nicolae Ghika-Budești and built with Italian craftsmen. Architect Ghika-Budești was a promoter of old Romanian architecture, with a personal style, a synthesis between Wallachian and Moldavian architecture. Specific for his constructions are the use of face brick, enamelled ceramic, the insertion of neo-gothic frames at doors and windows, the tower of monasterial inspiration, the horseshoe bow, the saw teeth decoration and the geometric motifs. The Palace from Dărmănești, with a surface of 4500 sqm, is disposed on four levels – basement, ground floor and two other floors, with a semicircular terrace. The annexes occupy approximately 1500 sqm. Water basins were built near the palace, and the buildings had a water supply system that is still preserved, the oldest in Bacău County, where water is brought from the mountain from a distance of nearly 8 km. Following the early death of Prince George, who lost his life due to typhus during the First World War, Elisabeta will spend most of her time at Dărmănești with her two daughters, Sanda and Marina. „She used to arrive here in May, with her daughters, governesses, chauffeurs and maids; she had an entire team brought from abroad, which included butlers and chefs as well. Until September she received here visits from relatives and friends.” The Royal visitors at The Dărmănești Palace include Queen Elisabeth of Romania and Queen Marie of Romania, photographed in national costumes in the garden and inside the residence. Queen Marie invokes Elisabeta Știrbey in her notes: Elisabeta is a beautiful and mild woman, born Băleanu. She has good taste, she likes beautiful things and is a real country life loving woman. Queen Marie records some other details about the residence, with the occasion of her August 1926 visit: Dărmănești is everything I expected it to be. A house with a beautiful position and a splendid garden, designed with perfect taste and concept. It has something that I have never seen before which is fantastic, enormous flower beds, almost like fields of garden mistletoe, hundreds and hundreds of flowers in huge groups, absolutely gorgeous and also its home is full of flowers arranged in large vases, pots and cans. Nothing can be more spectacular [...] The house is also beautiful and well designed.” The rehabilitation and restoration started in 2014 and the process took three years and sought to restore and preserve as many original items as possible. The solid wood stairway was kept – every square inch was cleaned and restored. The original solid oak carpentry was saved as well. To meet the current comfort requirements, the glass was replaced with a double-glazed window, but the original oak wood frame was preserved. The total of over 1000 windows have been refurbished one by one. It was possible to preserve and restore the Italian-style steel shutters (unique elements in the country), which had the role of protection in case of a siege. These were cleaned and painted. The façade is the original one as well – the bricks were refurbished to preserve the particular style of architect Nicolae Ghika-Budești. The space was furnished with French and Florentine furniture, the paintings exhibited in the palace include valuable works of art from the 17th century, signed by Italian, Flemish and Romanian artists. Due to this great effort, we can today savour a unique piece of jewellery of the Romanian built heritage, ready to start a new journey as a 40 rooms hotel with events, cuisine and spa facilities or as a most exquisite private retreat.

The history of the Predeal Resort is undeniably linked to the Romanian Principalities’ modernization process; the city became well-known when the railway line was drawn up by means of the Convention between Romania and Austria-Hungary, dated 31st of May 1874. The Predeal Station, located on the railway line connecting Ploiești and Brașov, was to become the turning point in the settlement’s development, and set off the first steps towards a prosperous period in terms of industry and tourism. The villa, built in the second half of the 1920s in Cioplea, the city’s area known for sports and tourism-related activities, was one of the first recreational buildings constructed in the area, and subsequently became the winter residence of Professor Teodor Vasilescu. It later on became the property of the Ploiești school committee (1937), which was the last owner before the communists came to power. Built in a traditional style, similar to that of front porch houses in the Wallachian region, the “Ceaușescu” villa got this nickname because it was used by Nicolae Ceaușescu between 1950 and 1958, when the residence was administered by the Ministry of Armed Forces. At that time, Nicolae Ceaușescu, an army major general, had the functions of Deputy Minister at the Ministry of National Defense, and Head of the Army’s Superior Political Department. This villa thus became Ceaușescu’s first protocol residence in Predeal before he took full control of the country. After 1965, the protocol villa’s supervision was transferred from the Ministry of Defence, and started being managed by the Recreation Department, in the same year when Ceaușescu became general secretary of the Communist Party.

Located in the Vrancea Mountains along the Putna River, on the road which connects Braşov to Focșani, Lepșa is a true hidden jewel, with the potential to be one of the most appreciated tourist destinations in Romania. Old settlement of woodsmen and livestock breeders, Lepșa resort has fructified the benefits of the mountain area in which it is located, extremely rich in tourist attractions, with numerous trails for hiking, monasteries, waterfalls and the Tişiţei Gorges Nature Reserve. In this natural setting, in Tulnici, we encounter a perfect holiday home which meets all the criteria of such a property. Located on a 3.000 sqm plot, it is a real fairytale cottage built on two levels, with a built area of 504 sqm and with many necessary and useful facilities: large bedrooms, a large living room, a beautiful garden, a wooden gazebo for the summer days along with friends, large terraces and balconies. The proximity of the mountains and the forest gives this holiday home a special charm and round out the atmosphere of the ideal mountain home. The vacation house is turn key, fully finished and furbished, waiting for its future owners. Among the attractions of the surroundings, we highlight the Putna Waterfall Geological and Landscape Reservation. After the confluence with the Tişiţa brook, the Putna River flows through a narrow valley, dug in hard sandstones. The tumultuous waters of Putna have dug differently, depending on the hardness of the rocks, forming a fall of more than 12 m, thus, the area is known as the Putna Waterfall. To safeguard the natural setting, the area of 10 ha was declared protected. Also, the forestry, geological, zoological and floristic reservation Tişiţa is a protected wild area that measures not less than 5400 hectares. It includes secular forests on the Tisaru Massif and the Tişiţa Gorges. The flora and fauna are spectacular comprising many endemic and rare species: black goats, bears, deer and stag. Other tourist attractions in the area are the Lepșa Monastery, founded in 1774, Putna Natural Park, Lepşa-Zboina Natural Reserve, Mount Goru Natural Reserve, Lepşa Trout Farm, Moș Ion Roată Memorial House. Located in the heart of the mountains and the hills of Vrancea county, Lepșa is an oasis of quiet and beauty, a place where the tourist always returns to meet the wild nature but also to find himself or herself. Hiking in the wilderness of the gorges, resting on the banks of Putna river, in a wonderful landscape, or experiencing the peaceful rebounding at the Lepșa monastery are some of the pleasures of a wonderful holiday you can spend in Tulnici.

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. Recently, a 429 sqm plot of land was added to the property in addition to the beautiful existing garden of 1,416 sq m.
