luxury real estate for sale Romania (page 3)

Somewhere in the heart of Bucharest, on a small street in the Capitalelor area, a 19th century villa surprises by preserving, on a small scale, the spirit of a Renaissance palace. The interiors are dominated by solid pieces of furniture and heavy textiles, be it the velvets upholstering the canvases or the flowing draperies and exquisite carpets. Wood dresses, in delicate robes of pale grey, the interior window surrounds, the joinery of the double glazed doors and the panelled walls, in line with the rest of the complex woodwork. In counterpoint are the furniture and impressive staircase, which retain the natural warmth of natural wood, discreetly lacquered but carved with visible craftsmanship. It is obvious that the painstaking restoration process has preserved and highlighted many of the original decorative elements - stuccowork, woodwork, etc. On the other hand, the interior design manages spectacularly to avoid shrinking in time, living in the present through an interesting mix of new and old in terms of fine arts and functional-decorative - classic paintings coexist wonderfully with contemporary ones, just as the light fittings and kitchen retain their modern character. The space is laid out over four levels, which allows for a good sharing of areas. On the basement level there is a guest bedroom, a hobby room, a gym with a bathroom, as well as a wine cellar, a laundry room and a technical room. The ground floor has common areas - a living room and a dining room, complemented by an office, a kitchen and a bathroom. Three further bedrooms and a bathroom are fitted upstairs; the attic has yet to find its purpose, awaiting a plan, an idea. Part of the Louis Blanc subdivision, the villa offers the future owner a rare opportunity to live in the city's super premium area without the compromises classically associated with it - limited space, old construction, etc. The photos present only an interior design solution.

The Interwar Cotroceni, a synonym for luxury in terms of residential, kept its seductive power untainted. And the Neo-Romanian villa is still an example of good taste. Built in 1929 and located close to the BNR Arenas, the spectacular home has all the attributes of a luxury property. Generous surfaces, furniture chosen by the owner and his team of designers, a fitness room, a massage room, and a food elevator - are just a few of the elitist traits inside the building. The exterior is just as spectacular. The villa, built in Neo-Romanian style with Byzantine accents, is surrounded by secular sycamores, which are declared natural monuments. The terrace is arranged in accordance with the architectural features of the building, and the garage of the residence can accommodate two cars. The villa is up for sale along the entire furniture, all the facilities and decorations, from LED TVs and fitness machines to decorative and art objects from the nineteenth or twentieth century. The property was completely renovated in 2017. Photo: Reptilianul

The renewed city is the city that lives again, more vibrant and eager for affirmation than ever. This is the expression of a new generation that does not indulge and for whom sacrifice is crowned by the reward of abundant living. There is nothing wrong with luxury, just as there is nothing wrong with an olive wreath, as a result of a toil, sometimes a lifetime, and as a symbol of tranquility and peace, in a neighborhood that is reinventing itself, in proximity to the legislative center, long and more recently, the religious center of the country.

Somewhere in Muntenia, on the Doamnei river valley, about halfway between Curtea de Arges and Campulung, in the Domnesti commune, there is a discreet property that, with its exposed brick pillars, brown wooden shutters and large flagstone paving, reminds a little of Tuscan houses. Those that, like this one, grow young trees in oversized pots, have terrace furniture of an essentialized rustic and trellises with red flowers, in our case geraniums. The river stone fence ensures the property has privacy. The house belonged to Dr. Teja Papahagi, an exceptional doctor and outstanding personality of the time, a man with a vast culture, full of initiative and organizational spirit. He gave his heart to the commune he loved and served throughout his life. Teja Papahagi was the son of Pericle Papahagi, born from the Aromanian nobility, but also from the princely lineage of the Bessarabians, being the one who founded, in Domneşti, a modern hospital with city utilities, a cultural society aimed at bringing the princely history back into focus. The street on which the house is located bears his name, and opposite is the hospital where he served his entire career. The house is on one level, having an almost imperceptibly raised foundation and a low roof supported by brick pillars. It is set back from the street and surrounded by ornamental trees and shrubs, contorted, wild, overgrown with ivy and an untamed vegetation that creates an atmosphere of vague solitude and interiorization. The house itself confirms the hypothesis - the libraries and the pieces of art that dominate the rooms determine the intensity of the natral light; there’s need for control because on the shelves there are old books of specialized literature in Aromanian, Romanian and French, plus writings and manuscripts of the owner’s father, the Aromanian linguist, philologist and folklorist Pericle Papahagi, the author of the first thorough studies on the Romanian Megleno group. In fact, the house, built of brick in 1959 to impeccable standards even today, has an office where the globe, carefully chosen decorative ceramics, lighting fixtures, the pipe resting on the leather map, the watercolors on the walls and the collection of rocks are elements that speak of the existence of an intellectual who sometimes slept here, surrounded by his passions. The living room still seems to carry the echo of the last conversations around the jewel-stove, made of tiles spectacularly decorated with lapis lazuli. The bedrooms have a sober air, softened by the carved wood of the furniture pieces such as the mirror or the wardrobe, or by the lively motifs of the fabrics - carpets, curtains, duvets and pillows. The kitchen keeps a wonderful old cooking machine with a hood between the walls paneled in the chocolate wood of the house. From the back terrace of the house one enters a small room full of books, a perfect place where one can retire to read in the summer. In the generous yard behind the house, there are outbuildings built in the same period. The attention to detail is overwhelming and visible right from the entrance - the door is made of wood, with a forged iron model like a broken embroidery, and the door knob is also a small artistic object, everything being perfectly integrated into the concept of the house. Heating is done with terracotta stoves; the property has running water from its own source, sewerage and electricity while street water and gas can be accessed from the street points.

Apartment with 1-bedroom and courtyard, located on the top floor of an exclusive building with luxury facilities, near Carol I Park. The renewed city is the city that lives again, more vibrant and eager for affirmation than ever. This is the expression of a new generation that does not indulge and for whom sacrifice is crowned by the reward of abundant living.

Today's high-end urban living is vertical, in tall and slender buildings that allow a spectacular panorama of the area, parks and lakes of the city. These towers in Floreasca tick off each of these characteristics and have quickly become an aspirational landmark in the area, bringing to Bucharest a way of living known until recently rather mediated by cinematography than directly, locally. Here you can have the New York feeling of a luxury apartment near Central Park. The project is a residential landmark that marks the completion of society's transition to prosperity and the completion of the transposition of Western values ​​into local culture. The apartment's 246 square meters of built-up area are divided into five rooms and four bathrooms, to which is added a 19 square meter terrace. Monochrome bathrooms and minimalist bedrooms complement the spacious and calm living area. The apartment abounds in glazed surfaces, which not only invites the light inside but also lets it caress and reflect on the white walls, covering every space, surface, area. The city outside becomes part of the family's life as a painting would, more precisely a still life gallery where, surprise, the leaves are rustling and ducks are floating on the lake. The terrace allows insertion into that setting, away from the noises and mobility of the city but in contact with its vibrations.

Brown wood on the outside and warm as honey on the inside, cheerful geraniums and the pastel yellow façade make up the representative formula for mountain guesthouses that embrace the rustic in design. These features are doubled by bright interior spaces connected to the azure mountain sky through generous balconies. The courtyard is an oasis of greenery, and access is through a paved alley, flanked left and right by geraniums; 4 parking spaces are also available on the property. The building currently has ten accommodation rooms that can be reconfigured for various other uses. The privileged address 300m away from the center of the resort offer this property an enviable flexibility. Sinaia is the crown jewel when it comes to mountain tourism; with more than three centuries of history behind it, it has become a must-have address ever since Carol I chose it as a summer residence and built Peleș Castle here, in 1873-1914. And today the resort attracts many visitors, from those interested in alpine sports to those attracted by cultural tourism, a tour of the town bringing at every step the names of great architects who signed buildings that are still spectacular today, such as the Sinaia Station, the Caraiman hotels, Palace and Furnica or Sinaia Casino (it is said that Baron Edgar de Marcay, shareholder of the casino in Monte Carlo, was the first investor in the one in Prahov, in 1913 when it was built). Chic villas are designed by the most important architects of the country, among them Ion Mincu, Paul Smărandescu, Petre Antonescu, Toma Socolescu, Grigore Cerchez, Duiliu Marcu and Karel Liman, and offer a special eclecticism strongly punctuated by elements of the German Renaissance.

In the world of architecture, sometimes projects are born that exceed the traditional boundaries of residential design. The Sun House is one of those remarkable stories. A project that perfectly illustrates how cutting-edge technology and sustainability can coexist harmoniously in a natural landscape. What makes the Sun House so special? An architecture that maximizes solar energy, executed to the passive house standard, with an all-wood structure, a smart yet user-friendly home, and an active, edible garden. The Sun House was an ambitious idea that came to life in 2018, in the expansion area of Otopeni, in the immediate vicinity of the Bucharest ring road. With a unique shape and a design that departs from the traditional conventions of homes, it is an example of energy efficiency that maximizes the power of the sun. It has been certified as a Passive House Plus, according to the international standard of the Passive House Institute in Darmstadt. In Romania, there are a total of three certified Passive Plus houses. One remarkable aspect of this residence is the integral use of wood, creating a natural and pleasant ambiance. The ground floor is made of Cross Laminated Timber (CLT), a cutting-edge material with structural walls that allow generous openings without the need for supporting pillars or beams. The ground floor is conceived as a central space (the living area) from which the other living rooms are distributed. The floor plan organization, inspired by the archetype of courtyard houses, uses the living room both as a central living space (for cooking, dining, and conversation) and as an interior courtyard from which the bedrooms are entered. The central room naturally extends to the exterior garden on the south side but also visually communicates with the greenhouse, featuring a skylight integrated into the greenhouse floor. However, the greenhouse has external access, as the two levels of the house have different energy performances and independent comfort assurance systems. Above the living space, in the attic area, the spectacular greenhouse adds a unique element - an open space that can be transformed into a flexible, green, and bright living space, with a partially opaque roof on the north side and mostly transparent elsewhere, allowing natural light to penetrate. The garden surrounding the Sun House is ideal for nature lovers. The landscaping was designed in parallel with the architectural plans, with the project theme being an edible garden that provides increased privacy. With an impressive number of plants, fruit trees, shrubs, aromatic plants, and fresh vegetables, the property not only enriches the landscape but also becomes an active yet relaxing space that offers a source of fresh and healthy food. The Sun House is an extraordinary example of a home designed for the future. It is a profound commitment to innovation, sustainability, and environmental respect. A warm, friendly, and bright refuge, an open space for family and friends, in a young community and an area shielded from the noise and hustle typical of urban crowds

Inaugurated on 12 of July 1914, the Palace Hotel had from the beginning the luxury necessary for its privileged category. From the very beginning and due to the contractual nature of its construction (to accommodate, at the required standing, those willing to play appreciable sums at the casino), the Palace Hotel had the most elegant facilities: 250 rooms or apartments, electric light, hot and cold water in each room, bathrooms on each floor, elevators for people and their luggage, hallways, correspondence room, smoking room, ice factory, omnibus-car service and the famous restaurant with Romanian-French cuisine. Through the amounts followed to be invested,the construction of the hotel was one of the most important clauses of the contract, In Alphonse Heitz's offer (to be returned to the municipality after 6 years of operation), the hotel becomes a reality (for its own use) through the efforts of Baron Edgard de Marçay and the Society of Great Establishments, although impediments and postponements are not lacking in the authentic Balkan way. Located in the most picturesque place on the Black Sea shores, the hotel is built in the eclectic style specific to the French Riviera. The main facade, designed symmetrically and monumentally, like the whole building, in fact, has as central element the entrance, flanked by two large consoles, provided at the top with Empire type garlands. Each level is individualized: the ground floor windows have a slightly arched arch, the first floor alternates balconies with hardware and masonry, the second floor has a rhythmic series of balconies with hardware on consoles, the following levels are separated by a frieze with Greek wave, and the semi-circular windows of the last level with small balconies and the same hardware, are flanked by massive consoles. The facade from the sea is higher, because the hotel follows the shore slope, introduces an asymmetrical element through the staircase that reaches the level of the key. Its impressive French neoclassical monumentality, the diversity of the quotations, based mainly on the Mediterranean tradition, gave Hotel Palace, the belonging to the category of modernity and not of traditionalism.

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. photo Tudor Prisecaru

A holiday cottage peeks its attic over a gleaming new fence. Both it and the fencing of the 10,000+ square meters of land are new, durable and sustainable constructions – stone and wood harmoniously complementing the green grass. With a living room, bathroom and kitchen on the ground floor and three bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs, the house is suitable for family holidays, the generous terrace, sheltered from the elements by the protective sloping roof, is the perfect place to enjoy the fresh air. The view is wonderful with wooded hills and deep valleys and the mountains in sight. The quaint old barn can be converted into a summer kitchen, storage space or even a rustic guest room. The property is located in the Piatra Craiului Mountains, near Suncuiuș, a place offering rafting activities on the Crișul Repede or via ferrata, visiting the Vântului cave (the longest in Romania), the Unguru Mare cave, the Bătrânului cave, Cotuna de Sus and Cotuna de Jos. In the summer, an attraction hard to resist is the spectacular landscaped beach at Suncuiuș. photo Tudor Prisecaru

Lining the cobbled streets named after the furriers and lipscani of yesteryear, the inn first shows off its wide, tall, arched ground-floor windows colored by faux stained glass. However, the upper floor retains its former glory, carefully decorated with rich elements such as the arms that support the wrought iron balcony, the common border that functions as a frame for the tall and narrow windows and the denticles that keep the rhythm under the roof. Today, the interior of the inn is dedicated to corporate and private events, which it hosts in three large areas – the conference center, the reception-foyer and the event hall. The space for business or cultural events is modern, bright and impeccably arranged for today's requirements (it has a capacity of 50-300+ people and is equipped with high-speed wi-fi internet, Video Wall Display, flip charts and systems professional sound system); instead, the event hall preserves accents of the past through sumptuous chandeliers, reinterpreted capitals and boiserie pieces that encapsulate old school sophistication. Spectacular by the contrast between ultramarine chairs, glass tables and boxed mirrors, this room discreetly resumes the English motif much more present in the reception area. The hall is served by its own kitchen equipped with modern equipment. The one that preserves the charm of the old inn is the inner courtyard, through the doors that the small traders hold open like welcoming arms, eager to show their treasures. Once upon a time there were majestic linden trees that shaded the yard, the name of the property coming from them. Atanasie Hagi, Gheorghe Polizu and Ștefan Popovici are the ones who built this inn in 1833, already having shops on the land which they expanded by buying from the neighbors. They built in their place, from the ground up, and in perfect companionship the Linden Inn, or as they called the Bezesten, from the main street of Marchitani (Strada Lipscani) which can be seen marked with our brands (initials) above both gates, with all the expenses of companionship are not out of two, brothers, a penny and a penny, from the warp (beginning) to the end of the key writes Constantin Bacalbaşa in București de altadată. The good camaraderie, the initials of which can still be seen today, did not last long because in 1835 the inn was shared, each owner receiving 14 shops and two warehouses; they kept in common only the toilet and the room where the innkeeper lives. Over time, the shops will continue to change their owners and close their doors well at night to protect travelers and merchants, as the Bacalbaşa writes: the shops were on one side and the other, and between them a street, which until 1916 it was paved with river stone. (…) All the shops were placed on deep cellars with large vaults that can still be seen today, the ceilings of the shops were also made in vaults. As in other inns, the windows and doors of the shops had iron shutters which were closed at night, and on top of them were placed crossbeams bent at the ends. At the entrances of the inn, on one side and on the other, next to the building, there were some stone pillars, about a meter high and quite thick, intended to protect the walls from damage by carts with goods that entered and left the inn.

Built in neoclassical style at the end of the 19th century, in the Historic Center of the Capital, a short distance from Rosetti Square, this merchant villa remains an important testimony of Bucharest from the interwar period. Located in the Bucharest perimeter of Negustori, which marked Mircea Eliade's childhood, this building proposes a return to Bucharest from another time. The house with basement, ground floor, first floor and attic, is distinguished by its balanced proportions, its arrangement being perfectly symmetrical. The main façade is marked by the central door flanked by two single-sided windows, raised with a masonry sill. In turn, the floor is distinguished by the central balcony, with wrought iron railing and arched arched door, flanked by two windows with ornaments representing acanthus leaves and ribbons. With a total area of ​​280 sqm, it has 7 rooms, 3 bathrooms, an inner courtyard, storage spaces in the basement and attic. The exterior carpentry is made of laminated wood with double glazing, the interior is made of wood, the main wrought iron staircase, continued by two other oak stairs that make the connection with the basement and the attic, respectively. The whole building is connected to all utilities, including the three-phase electrical network. Undergoing a complete renovation in 2021, the building has retained all the original architectural elements. The new owner will have the opportunity to own a period villa, emblematic of an old district of Bucharest.

One of the very few fully renovated manors available in Bucharest's vicinity is located in Vadu-Lat, Giurgiu county. Only 51 km away from Bucharest, Radu Iliescu Manor can instantly become a permanent residence away from the buzz of the big city but with a fairly easy access to all its interest points, or it can become a weekend or vacation residence with all facilities and amenities needed. Built in 1900, the manor is listed as a historical and architectural monument of local importance, and it was fully renovated with a lot of attention for the details and great care for restoration and preservation of the original elements, and then furnished and decorated in line with its character and its history. The manor is set on a 3.834 land plot, with turf, stone alleys, ornamental landscape and a big orchard with fruit trees. We find also a few additional smaller constructions: a gazebo, a stand-alone house of the guardian that is fully renovated and ready-to-use, an old barn that is restored and used for decorative purpose, and a building that was used as stables and that is now transformed in 3 distinct rooms used as workshop, distillery and storage. The manor is built on two levels, semi-basement and ground floor, and since 2009 it is owned by a family who took care of the restoration process, a very thorough one, made using traditional methods and materials. After renovation the place was tastefully designed, from the garden's landscape all the way to furniture and the authentic decor pieces.If what you want is a property with an aristocratic heritage, that looks and feels authentic and natural, that happily blends together nature and history, then the Vadu-Lat manor may be your best choice!

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.

Nestled within the enchanting landscapes of Dobra, the Poenaru Manor stands as a testament to the grandeur and elegance of a bygone era. Surrounded by lush vegetation and green hills, this stately residence exudes an air of mystery and historical significance, having once been the cherished abode of the illustrious boyar family of Poenaru. One of the most prominent boyar families of Oltenia, the Poenaru dynasty is a large one, with important representatives in the political, cultural and scientific life of Romania during the last two centuries. The story of the Dobra domain starts with Costadin (Dinca) Poenaru (1789-1874) who inherits and then extends family’s lands all across Mehedinți county. But is is Constantin Poenaru (1860-1946) the one that puts his entire life and energy into developing the Dobra Domain to what it is today. Approaching the manor, one is immediately struck by the imposing façade that speaks of both opulence and noble heritage. The architecture seamlessly combines Classical and Renaissance influences, resulting in a harmonious blend of intricate stonework, sober features but also delicate ornate details. As you step inside, a sense of timelessness envelops you. The interior exudes an aura of faded grandeur, with high vaulted ceilings adorned by old bricks walls that can tell some century old tales and historical events. The grand foyer, illuminated by the soft glow of antique chandeliers, leads to a series of once lavishly decorated rooms. The heart of the manor is undoubtedly the grand hall, a space designed to host extravagant gatherings and events. Towering windows allow natural light to cascade onto the large halls that lead to rooms who used to be used for living, for doing business or for spending time with friends. The expansive gardens that envelop the Poenaru Manor are a verdant paradise, with a large wallnuts orchard, vibrant flowerbeds, and meandering pathways that invite contemplative strolls. The domain contains a series of very valuable annex buildings: small renovated house (128 sqm), a beautiful former barn (166 sqm), the large storage (3 levels on a 327 sqm footprint) and a small block of apartments (2 levels on a 174 sqm footprint). The total land plot has 11 hectares , out of which 7 are owned and 4 are leased from the city hall. While time has inevitably left its mark on the Poenaru Manor, it remains a well preserved cherished jewel in Dobra's and Oltenia’s historical tapestry, a living testament to the legacy of the boyar family that once graced its halls. It can be used as such, as a beautiful residence for permanent living or for vacation, or can be turned into a small farm, a beautiful boutique hotel or a medical care center.

Lucian Blaga said that “eternity was invented in the village” and where could you feel the meaning of these words better than in Maramureș, the place where as you arrive you seem to walk through a gate to meet tradition and authenticity. Any visitor who arrives here for the first time discovers, in the beginning, the fairytale landscapes, and immediately after, the spirit of the locals who due to their way of being, to their specific speech but also to their folk costumes, welcome you with the ultimate hospitality and joy, the characteristics of what can become at any time the informal brand identity of these places. This region hides real architectural treasures, from the well-known wooden churches to the traditional carved gates, which, inviting you to cross the border of the households, seem to transport you instantly into a museum, but also to a special time when living quietly but diligent in the country side blends harmoniously with a certain respect for the customs. Cosma House is part of this fairytale landscape. It can be reached by driving on a private access road, at the end of which there is, of course, a beautiful wooden gate. The 150-year-old house was thoroughly restored in 2008 with a special care for its traditional elements and at the same time it was modernly equipped adapting to current requirements. Located in the middle of a large orchard, the house has a traditional porch typical for Maramureş with beautiful sculptures and seating benches. From here you can admire a wonderful view over the Rodna and Țibleș Mountains, the altitude being 750 m. Having a built area of ​​139 square meters, it can accommodate four people in a more than comfortable environment. If on the outside the house shows only its traditional side and the beauty of the past, inside it transforms and adapts to provide comfort and all that is necessary for the life of the modern man. Thus, the house is fully equipped and furnished with premium quality furniture and top appliances. On the ground floor there is a spacious and well-equipped kitchen, the living room and one bathroom, and upstairs it has a large bedroom and an open space for sleeping. The garden has a BBQ area, a place designed for campfire and a covered pavilion perfect for admiring the fairytale panorama with a glass of „horinca” in the cellar and a plate of goodies just taken off the grill. The house is an ideal starting point for nature, culture, hunting or hiking lovers given that it is located in an area with incredibly rich flora and fauna (brown bears, wolves, lynx, wild cats, otters, deer, eagles, and a variety of rare birds, such as hoopoe and barnacles). The surrounding meadows and the whole field are mowed manually each year, with great care, the way that has been done here for more than a hundred years. Also, here we can find orchids, wild gladioli, carnivorous plants, cotton buds and many other plants.
