House Suceava (Romania)

The mansion known today by the name of its second owner, Timișoara-born businessman Koșca, was built in the 19th century by the Polish Hagianopol. He sold the property in 1930 but the time that has passed over it since then has not touched it; perfectly preserved and with a young spirit the domanin stands proud today, with new and attractive accessories such as the sky-reflecting pool. Protected by a belt of bushy trees strategically placed on the property boundary, the main building is white, bright and warm under its reddish new brick roof. The interior keeps the light and associates the white walls with a lot of wood - decorative beams on the ceiling, old furniture, carpentry. In one room high semi-columns are painted with flowers in autumn rust colors, outlining a chromatic leitmotif. The bedrooms are generous, gently dominated by the warmth of wood; brown terracotta stoves preserve the rustic character of the entire mansion. A gorgeous tile stove in blue and white is the piece de resistance of the living room. The area of over two hectares includes 4 buildings with their own central office and various annexes and facilities. First of all, the Mansion stands out with a built area of 306 square meters divided into 6 rooms, living room, 4 bathrooms, kitchen, cellar, porch, terrace with garden and swimming pool. The secondary house has a built-up area of 238 sqm - 4 rooms, living room, kitchen, bathroom, indoor garage, an outdoor terrace and an indoor one with a semi-round shape and large windows that offer a superb view of the valley above which the property sits. Separately we find another building - a former warehouse partially furnished as an apartment of approximately 60 useful square meters with 2 bedrooms, bathroom and kitchen. A large part of this building, however, is empty and waiting to be given a purpose. All three buildings have, in addition to the mentioned areas, high attics over the entire surface of the ground floor, attics that can be transformed by the future owner at will into useful spaces. A special building present on the land is the former nobleman's wine cellar; it has a footprint of 218 sqm and is built on three underground levels. In the past these premises had an industrial use being a mini factory of dairy products but it can be used again in its own right or as spaces for events. The orchard that surrounds the property has more than 300 fruit trees per fruit that delight guests and turn autumn celebrations in the courtyard of the mansion into real feasts. Conceived at one time as accommodation for tourists interested in the south of the country (Bucharest and Ploiești are 60 km away, Târgoviște 20 km and Pitești 40 km) the mansion receives its guests as a space for recreation and events but just as well it can support a reconversion with an emphasis on its agricultural or orchard potential. Or, why not, it can become a vacation property where the rich history and beauty of simple architecture intertwine with the amenities necessary for the comfort of modern life

House Tulnici (Romania)

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.

House with garden and terrace Bucharest (Romania)

Residence is an understatement. Rather, it is about a large-scale residential concept, surrounded by positive energy, built in the heart of Codril Vlăsiei, a short distance from the future A0 - ring highway, Henri Coandă International Airport and Băneasa Shopping City. Hidden from the hectic life and pollution of the city, in an area where you can hear the chirping of wild birds from the window, this unique property has a plot of 14,000 square meters, a privilege that few residential properties enjoy in the immediate vicinity of the Capital. Generous rooms, solid wood floors, stained glass windows, woodwork and classic, timeless finishes are just a few of the attributes of the home that looks like something out of a modern fairy tale. The indoor pool and fireplace welcome frosty days, and the seemingly endless garden, which together with the tree-lined lake and relaxing walks through the private forest, emphasize the true definition of luxury. The property has photovoltaic panels with a power of 17 kw and a prosumer function, an internal elevator and a covered garage for 3 cars. It is a rare purchase opportunity with a beautiful story behind it, where the owner over time joined several parcels of land, including a piece of oak forest, which is now an integral part of the property. In addition to practical compartmentalization and tasteful finishes, the house can be lived in by two families by separating the areas. Being at the first sale since the construction, the owner confesses that it is hard to part with it, sharing the following story: Many times when I was preparing for the launch of the project I asked myself, what should my house look like? I browsed dozens of sites with famous projects, photos of famous houses, medieval villas and historical monuments. Neither seemed to be the expression of my expectation. I always told myself that I wanted it to reflect the situation of my childhood home, where no one could look in unless invited but, on the other hand, it had its back to the garden and the forest. And at the same time, to have a wide opening to the forest, to be separate but also connected to a service area. Well, if they could let the forest penetrate inside, that would be even better. And if I can get the vegetation to spread, symbolically, into the house, it would be wonderful to be able to light a fire that doesn't screen my view of the garden and the oak trees. From the beginning, I imagined a house with large windows, the size of a football goal, with wide doors, with openings through which nature and the forest could pass and embrace it from all sides. When I first stepped into the clearing with waist-deep grass, surrounded by tall oaks, I said to myself: This is the place for my house! Photo: Dan Călin

House Valea Ierii (Romania)

Only 45 km from Cluj, at the crossroads of Valea Ierii and Valea Negrii, a road through the forest suddenly opens up, reminiscent of a wonderful grove, a clearing flooded with greenery around an pond. A guesthouse all set in stone, wood and red flowers welcomes its guests with modern rooms and bohemian terraces. The mountain air feels cold and strong when it enters the nostrils, reaches the veins and ozonates. Here everything is under the sign of green - the rich and seemingly wild vegetation is left to dominate, to overflow, to fill the gaze with green. The plaster and buttresses of the exposed stone evoke the durability, stability and stature of a medieval settlement. Everything is made of wood, inside and out. The architecture follows the local rustic style, but the interior, all wood-paneled. has the atmosphere of a contemporary cottage. The wood reflects light creating a quiet, gentle and warm cocoon. Lighting accessories and chromatically coordinated contemporary furniture make a modern gray-yellow-black combination. There are 10 rooms with balconies above the lake, another 7 rooms in the main building (two of them have their own terrace and private tub with air massage) and 4 apartments (one with an area of 48sqm, shower and whirlpool tub/ ciubăr; its terrace is above the waterfall; other two apartments have private tub/ ciubăr).

House with garden and terrace Satu Mare (Romania)

The villa, built in 2014 on 2,600mp of land, is a testament to the contemporary style - modern architecture based on asymmetric volumes, wide openings and straight, clean lines, stripped of superfluous decorations. The fence and walkways are flanked by carefully selected mature vegetation; a long pedestrian walkway runs parallel to a 6x12m ornamental pond and driveway, one leading to the entrance to the house, the other to the double garage. The villa has 400 useful square meters on the ground floor (living room, kitchen, technical space, spa area, bathroom, garage) and the first floor with 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, dressing room and laundry room. The whole life of the house is oriented towards the back area - the living room on the ground floor and the elegant terraces on the first floor lead to the 5x10m pool heated with panels and guarded by shrubs and plants that lend it a vague Tuscan air. This location provides peace and privacy. The interior has a soothing color that oscillates between shades of tobacco, ivory and chocolate; the atmosphere is calm, quiet, refined; a modern fireplace that preserves the clean and straight lines of the house also contributes to this. Large glazed surfaces, curtains and blinds carefully negotiate the dosage of natural light inside, and the opening of the living room to the terrace and pool is done fluidly, as a natural extension when the season allows it. The hand of an interior designer can be discreetly felt everywhere. The master bedroom surprises with soft textures and a fireplace; bathrooms are stylish with monochrome trends and premium sanitary ware. The entire villa shows great care for the quality and refinement of the finishes and furnishings - it has a French oak staircase, underfloor heating, corian boards, fiber optics. The relaxation area is not neglected either, the villa having a sauna, spa and jacuzzi. The property enjoys the advantages of being located in Păulești, the select residential area of the city of Satu Mare. photo Florin Pepene

House with terrace Sighetu Marmației (Romania)

In a long and broad valley cut through thick woods stand few houses, clustered here and there, rather spread among large tracts of green land—on such land, with forest on three sides, a lover of green has built in 2007 a solid stone foundation on which he then aligned, horizontally, round, neat and straight logs in the shape of a house. A wide terrace, house to red geraniums, allows one to take possession of the property with a glance - everything is green, welcoming and alive; the vocabulary of the house does not include concrete, asphalt and plasterboard. Soft and warm logs are used inside as walls; mbroidered curtains, local pottery and a door painted with folk designs join the carved entrance gate and anchor the house in tradition; the computer and photovoltaic panels stand as symbols of the present. On the surrounding land, long branches hang heavy to the ground; somewhere in between them there is a bear watch shelter. Here at dusk there’s that ineffable feeling when the body feels the day slowing down and the soul vibrates in communion with nature. The ground floor means common spaces - living room, kitchen, dining area and bathroom. The corner stove promises to burn hot in the winter; in summer, the wood does its duty and keeps cool. The sleeping area consists of three bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs. For summer days, the gazebo with grill/oven solves the eternal dilemma what are we eating today, and the table tennis room breaks the tranquility with a little competitive spirit. When too much forest threatens the balance, the Sovata resort is 15 km away, ready to offer its attractions: lakes with chlorinated and sodium waters, restaurants or hiking on the Salt Mountain and Gurghiu Mountains, towards Vârful Cireșelu or Saca Hill; Praid, Corund, Odorheiu Secuiesc, Călimănesti, and Rimetea are not far away either. photo Florin Pepene

House Bistrița (Romania)

Somewhere on the edge of the forest, with the Bistrita River flowing in front, a private and quiet street leads to a secluded property where the perfectly manicured greenery induces a feeling of well-being; the impression it leaves is bright, neat, with clean lines, a strong aspirational component and a vague Mediterranean air perhaps given by the vegetation or the whiteness of the walls under the roof tile that falls heavily on the building. A silver fir tree punctuates the crowded green garden; the walkways take up in stone the idea of the curve found on the property in other areas too - the corrugated roof, the cut of the glass in the living room, etc. The interior is comfortable, the atmosphere warm, restful and ready to provide comfort for a large number of people - the common areas such as the open kitchen’s island and the living room are meant to gather around the table an extended family. The bathrooms attract attention with a modern design in which the stand alone bathtub is the piece of resistance. The layout of the space follows the civilized standard - in the basement the technical room - boilers, heating system and pool installations - but also the recreation room and wine cellar, plus a light courtyard with access to the pool. The ground floor allows parking for two cars in the garage and from there access to the living room with its fireplace, the dining area and the open kitchen (a second, closed kitchen and an ironing room are nearby). Also on this level are the guest bedroom with bathroom, the office and a vestibule. In the attic, under the skylight, there are 3 bedrooms with a bathroom each. In total, over 730 sqm of usable area finished to the highest standards. photo Florin Pepene

House with garden Bucharest (Romania)

Famous for having hosted the United States Embassy for over 70 years, the Palace located on Tudor Arghezi street regained its lost history for over a century. Known as Maurice Blank Palace, the residence of one of the most important bankers of modern Romania, was built in 1891, under the guidance of its first owner, by the hand and project of the famous Swiss architect Louis Pierre Blanc (1860-1903). He created some important Romanian public buildings, such as, the Palace of the Ministry of Agriculture, the Palace of the Faculty of Medicine, the University of Iaşi Headquarters and the Victor Babes Institute. Louis Blanc left behind an important series of private residences as well, having a great influence over the image of Bucharest from 1900 to this day. Working only 20 years in Romania, and especially in Bucharest, Louis Blanc arrived in the capital city in 1884, brought by his friendship with Ion Mincu, but also by a favourable environment for the development of an exceptional career. His style reminds us of the French Neoclassicism, especially in monumental buildings, and when it comes to private residences we notice an architect with a passion for the French taste, from Neo-Renaissance to beaux-arts. Louis Blanc succeeded within 5 to 10 years to become one of the most important architects and decorators of Bucharest at the end of the nineteenth century. The relations created through the two marriages, with Elena Şuţu and later Irina Berindei offered him contracts and contacts with the high Romanian society. Thus, in the spring of 1891, Louis Blanc, together with his associate Luigi Scolari, began the work at the Palace of Maurice Blank, co-founder of the well-known Marmorosch Blank & Co bank (1864) along Iacob Marmorosch being one of the most important bankers of the late nineteenth century (i.e. the bank lent the Romanian state in the campaign for the War of Independence). Even though today Maurice Blank is remembered mainly for having built the famous headquarters of the bank on Doamnei Street and the Băneasa Forest mausoleum, the palace on Tudor Arghezi Street is undoubtedly an architectural jewel that will remain permanently in the Romanian history and culture. Having a L-shaped design, 2.500 built square meters in the 50 rooms, and a generous garden decorated with pine trees and a fountain, the Maurice Blank palace became an architectural landmark for the residences located in the proximity of the University square. In 1934 the palace was purchased by the lawyer and politician Eduard Mirto, who was the last rightful owner until the installation of the Communist regime. Eduard Mirto will initiate the links between the Blank Palace and the United States Embassy, renting the building in 1939 after some authorized renovation, consolidation and modernization works. He installed a system of centralized heating and plumbing extending the construction in the area of its secondary façade right on the verge of the outbreak of the Second World War. The US Embassy will remain there until 2011 when the building re-entered the private circuit as one of Bucharest’s architectural masterpieces.

House with garden Breaza de Sus (Romania)

Contemporary architecture plays with volumes, full and empty, overlapping parallelepipeds with elongated sides - as is this villa, a perpedicular universe of right angles tamed by carefully placed vegetation, thick-crowned trees and bushy shrubs. Ample, modernly designed terraces are designed to allow life outside, in the fresh air of this quiet, secluded part of Breaza. The ground floor appears fluid, the space having continuity and lightness in a slightly masculine atmosphere where the chromaticity is concentrated in olive tones, anthracite and declinations of the chocolate-caramel spectrum. The vague sobriety is also maintained in the private spaces, in the bathrooms receiving monochromatic tones of granite with dramatic accents. The two fireplaces, in the living room and the master bedroom, bring warmth and style. The dining area is placed between two glazed walls which provide light and a view to the greenery outside; on hot days, the meal is taken on the terrace where a barbeque is set up, area accessible both from the kitchen and living room. A stylish, Japanese spa-like atmosphere is provided by the 72m2 indoor pool, a perfect example of minimalism, that extreme simplification of lines and form for a reduction to the essentials of function and aesthetics. In fact, the house also shares the passion for technology classically associated with Japanese culture - it is a smart home, the commands can be given from the application installed on the phone or from the switches - security system, air conditioning, dimming lighting, music are fully integrated. The chosen level of comfort means individual air conditioning in each room, underfloor heating throughout the house, external defrosting, water softener, lightning rod with long protection radius and grounding socket, solar panels and HDMI wiring in all rooms as well as a Variovac Premium 240VIP central vacuum with 12 m hose and controllers on the handle. The vegetation created by a landscape architect benefits from an irrigation system that can be fed from the network or from its own well and the pump from the underground technical room. The indoor pool is controlled by an Orpheo automatic with pH and ORP dosing plus a sand filter, has a Dantherm dehumidifier and can be illuminated with 6-color LEDs. To the rear of the house there is a shed with generous space for tools and gardening. The property is connected to the sewer, it also has its own pit and two deep wells with stone walls for rainwater. Safety is also a key aspect taken seriously - all rooms have a glass break sensor and a motion sensor, and the hallways have a smoke and temperature sensor; in addition, all rooms where there are water pipes have a flood sensor. There is a system of video cameras outside and inside plus sensor lights in the car park, on the building and perimeter (trees) as well as on the 70m access road. The two gates are automatic and have control light, and access is via an Aprilaire video intercom. In conclusion, the villa is an ideal home or place of refuge in nature and in the fresh air of Breaza, offering facilities rarely found even in big cities. There is the option to also purchase a 500m2 plot of land next to the villa, with a non-functional building at present, if an extension of the property is desired. Photo: Tudor Prisecaru

Property Craiova (Romania)

The birth certificate of the monumental place that would definitively enter into the city life of Craiova and the country through the name, utility and brilliance of “Minerva Casino”, was signed more than a century ago, when the architect Toma Dobrescu handed over the plans for the new construction to a society in which entrepreneurs and workers were predominantly Italian. The Moorish-style building, completed in 1902, had a restaurant and hotel at its inauguration, later adding, through clever arrangements, the wine cellar and the summer garden. Later, under the care of extraordinary restorers (Vasilescu, Bazavan, Andronescu, Mândreanu, Istrățoiu, Barbu), the famous Moorish hall and beerhouse became the city’s main attraction, Minerva competing and surpassing all other party venues. The motto of that time - All the fine people gathers at Minerva’s made the regular attendance of the place to be an event for the citizens of Craiova. From the very beginning, Minerva brought together on the concert stage the most appreciated fiddlers of the times, such as Cristache Ciolacu or the Buică troupe, Dinicii, Tandinii, the instrumentalists from the Piculeata and Julea family. It must be remembered that artists that created a name for themselves in the country's artistic life made their debut on the Minerva stage. This is where Madelaine and Manu Nedeianu, Iodănescu-Bruno, Ion Vasilescu, Mia Braia, Ioana Radu, Dorina Drăghici, Petre Alexandru and many, many others started. When Giani Spinelli sang, the tables also occupied the entrance hall, many waiting outside, because there was no more room in the hall. It should also be remembered that Minerva was a real citadel of culture, here the artists spending their free time, over a drink, discussing art issues and making plans, giving birth to ideas. Here could be seen Amza Pellea, Gheorghe Cozorici, Constantin Rauțchi, Silvia Popovici, Sanda Toma, Ioana Bulca, Andreea Năstăsescu, Rodica Tapalagă, Ioana Măgură, Vasile Constantinescu, Vasile Nițulescu, Remus Comăneanu, Geo Barton, George Marutza or Costel Rădulescu, Mircea Bohoreanu, Benedict Gănescu, George Apostu, Victor Roman, Ilie Purcaru, Paul Anghel, Ion Caraion, Haralambie Grămescu, Mihai Ungheanu, Adrian Petringereanu, Horia Pătrașcu or Petre Dragu. Ion Voicu or Constantin Piliuță whenever they came to Craiova, Minerva was their host. Minerva hosted important people of the world: General Charles De Gaule, Ciu-En-Lai, Emperor Pahlavi of Iran, President Gomulka of Poland and so many others. The Minerva Garden hosted the first boxing galas in which many champions of the country competed: Anton Osca, Marin Gaspar or Gheorghe Lungu. Minerva remains an exceptional achievement in Craiova's urban planning, impressing in size and architectural exuberance. A monumental construction made in Moorish style, with a rich exterior decoration, with an entrance that stands out for its monumentality. The Maur salon has a huge skylight, with Viennese mirrors on the side that highlight the splendor and grandeur designed by the architect. Today Minerva is in a project state and is patiently and nostalgically waiting for the time to shine again. Consolidated and partially renovated, the building needs a renovation project in order to be used again as a hotel with restaurant, beerhouse and summer garden facilities and to become again the main attraction of a city that has been missing for too long.

Property with garden Ceptura de Jos (Romania)

Between Ceptura and Fântânele, Prahova County, spread over 23 hectares of soil rich in siliceous clay, with a climatic condition similar to that of Bordeaux or Tuscany, The Rotenberg Wine Cellar offer the ideal conditions for obtaining the maximum potential of fruity, expressive and strong aromas of wines. The plantations are predominant in Merlot, but Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon varieties are also present. What gives the grapes an exceptional quality is the separate harvesting depending on sunshine, soil and planting density, together with the vine age- over 50 years old. The rigorosity of grapes harvesting offers the highest quality aura to the drinks flavour. Here, the grapes are fermented on separate plots, the ‘’Single vineyard’’ wines being obtained by this technique. The red wine is fermented in semi-open pots, with a submerged ‘’hat’’, while the seeds are kept in the ‘’pigeage’’ hat, being eliminated most of the bad, bitter and herbaceous tannins, leaving behind the intense taste of a quality red wine. Although it is expensive and non-industrial, this process gives the wines a special and deep fineness, unattainable in ‘’stainless steels”. The Rotenberg Winery offers 2 overlapping cellars with 400 barrels that allow a gravitational techonogical flow in which the wine is not attacked by pumps. Its passage from the fermentation vessels into barrels, then into bottles is done under the influence of its own weight, avoiding mechanical filtration, giving it a special texture. The wood is strictly selected- it has no white, permeable fibers or decays. The wood is aged for at least 18 months in wind and rain, in order for the sap and some of the tannins to be washed. Some barrels are deep burned, giving the complex and deep taste, so characteristic of the Rotenberg wine. The burning process time and intensity represents the secret of the premium wine that can be found only at The Rotenberg Wine Cellar. The property also offers a manor for tastings and events (oenotourism), in an exceptional ambiance. The Rotenberg Winery was founded in 2007 and produces 1000HL of premium wine per year from the grapes cultivated on 23 Ha of land (18 Ha of Merlot, 3 Ha of Cab. Franc, 2 Ha of Cab. Sauvignon). Awarded at ‘’Mondial du Merlot’’- Switzerland, in 2010 and 2014, the wines can be found in most of the retail networks, which absorb about 75% of production. All these make The Rotenberg Wineries not only the place where the perfect combination of softness and stature of internationally awarded wines is born, but also a brand and a bussines ready to be exploited.

Property Bucharest (Romania)

The last few years have brought to our attention areas, names and ancient histories that put in context and humanize the town we live in and the buildings we pass by in a hurry. The House of Guilds is one of those witness-houses, few and often in danger of extinction, which recover the history of the city and its largest minority, the Jews. Sephardic refugees from Spain and later, after the Principalities Union, Ashkenazi from Galitia, the Jews are doctors, potters, merchants, samsari, tailors, painters, craftsmen specialized in metalworking and are useful to the city because it contributes to its urbanization. They settled on the left bank of Dâmbovița, near the Royal Court and later in the area that became the Jewish Quarter. They built houses with shops on the ground floor, public baths, kosher butchers shops and dairies, teahouses where religious music was listened to, temples and synagogues. Today few remember this community; the legionary fires of 1941 and the massive demolition of the 1980s changed the appearance of the neighborhood considerably. At present, the toponym Jewish Quarter encapsulates more storrytelling than material evidence, which makes the property proposed for sale even more valuable. On Spătaru Street at number 10A we find today this neo-Gothic building, richly decorated, Casa Breslelor, the work of the architect Luigi Ludovic Lipizer, who arrived in Bucharest from the Austrian Empire in the middle of the 19th century. The building has not only a unique architecture but also a historical and architectural value that the restoration and extension project carried out by an architectural office specialized in the rehabilitation of historical monuments intends to preserve (the project is currently subject to approval). Lipizer embraces the neo-Gothic style, expressed in Europe in the18th and 19th centuries, and this option makes the building look like a commercial hall from the Middle Ages and is known today as the House of Guilds - it is believed that the statues placed on the columns with capitals and protected by meticulously decorated canopies represent various professions. The access is made through an arched door under a noble broken arch, but the neo-Gothic remains outside; inside, only the light entering the house brings with it the beauty of the windows. On the ground floor, besides the hall and stairwell, there will be, according to the restoration and extension project, an office, a living room with dinning area, a bathroom and a kitchen. Upstairs it is proposed to redistribute the space into a master bedroom, a bathroom, another bedroom plus a family room and the current loggia. The architects propose an additional floor with a bedroom and terrace; also here the restoration and extension project includes the transformation of a portion of the roof into a glass roof. In the basement generous areas have been designed for the technical room, laundry/ bathroom and cellar, plus living quarters for staff. An open cellar is provided with access from the courtyard, where the demolition of the adjoining bodies without residential and architectural-historical value is taken into account with the preservation of some brick walls as decorative elements of the green spaces that will form the interior garden. The present values the past, shakes it from the dust and sees its future. The House of Guilds, one of the few left standing despite its 160th anniversary, has the chance to shine again as a magnificent private home, unique in its history and architecture, comfortable and warm through its planned restoration works.

Farmhouse with garden Grădiștea (Romania)

We invite you to a green field, forgotten by the world, apparently outside of civilization and where the sun rises and sets unhindered by concrete or asphalt. The expanse of almost five hectares of land in this area means calm and solitude - the silent flat immovable plain and the forest that borders it are the guarantor. Entering the house, the green leaves the stage and wood enters - the entire lodge of over a thousand square meters is made of wood and is divided into truly generous day and night spaces. The ground floor means a high living room, a spacious kitchen and bedrooms, each with its own dressing room and bathroom. The upper floor has been reserved for a large gym and lounge area. Wood up, wood down, wood upright, horizontal, trunk, log, bar, plank - in any representation, whole or sliced, straight or gnarled, the wood is warm, silent, patient and lively and acts as a building material, decoration, binder between the outside and inside. A stylized hut exploits a hoof making it a native hobbit house, with gnarled trunks guarding the entrance (the windows are the bottoms of barrels ingeniously rotated on an axis). With a bedroom and a bathroom (approx. 40 sqm), the small building assumes the role of a guest room. A playground with a climbing wall, birds and swings provide activities for the little ones, along with the pond and the cattle on the property. The house and the outbuildings (garage, photovoltaic panels), the greenhouses and the vegetable garden, the fruit trees, the glistening water that made its way through the willows, the grass, the sheep stable and the bird area are guarantees of the self-sufficiency of the property. As additional security measures are the protective trench fence and thorny vegetation, the observation posts, the bunker as a shelter in case of calamity and the escape route. The location of the property 30 minutes from Bucharest, in Grădiștea (northeast of Ilfov County) makes it extremely attractive as a weekend refuge, a place of return to nature and peace.

Castle Iacobeni (Romania)

In the forests of Transylvania, 100 km from Brasov and Targu Mures, a manicured hedge reminiscent of the perfection of Versailles guides the steps to a petit chateau . At the end of the alley the gaze stops on a building like a piece of France moved to the Harghita Mountains. In reality, the architecture is tributary to the Transylvanian style of Kos Karoly, the architect born in the region and acclaimed co-author of a prestigious Budapest neighborhood. The property is practically a contemporary castle for a new type of castellan, one that values ​​ the refinement of the classic style, the privacy offered by 20,000 sq m of wooded land and the change of seasons. In winter the immaculate snow casts a gray-blue light mirroring the sky, and the snowy tower stands guard beside the trees surrounding the building like a defensive wall; the snow erases the contemporary leaving room for a medieval thrill. Autumn, on the other hand, contrasts the subtle refinement of architecture with the smoky burgundy of deciduous forest. Budding makes the branches crack in spring, and in summer the same coniferous and deciduous leaves bring breeze and coolness. The building is projected on the sky, yet it does not overwhelm with arrogance but with the elegance of the shades and the aesthetics of the lines. The white masonry is embraced by solid stone and blue-gray carpentry; the caramel-colored wood accents punctuate the railing area and the terrace furniture. The 17m-high tower offers a 360 degree panorama over the surrounding endless forest (although it is located in a small locality, the property enjoys the peace of isolation). Inside, the tower has walls clad in French blue wood paneling and a stylized spiral staircase that, seen from above, opens like slices of a Dobos Torte; accordingly, the light that falls on them is reflected on the walls like a liquid caramel. The building preserves the wide steps and the platform entrance of the old residences where the guests were greeted by all of people of the house, owners and staff alike. The interior is intimate, the partitions are designed to bring the family together, the rooms manage to stay warm and welcoming. Classic solid wood furniture pieces in warm colors, paintings, hunting trophies and elegant lighting fixtures (the latest made by the craftsman of the Vienna Opera) are carefully chosen and discreetly displayed to build a warm family atmosphere. In the living room there is a coffered ceiling, an impressive travertine fireplace decorated with a marble bust and wonderful pendulum wall clocks, made of carved wood. The property highlights valuable local resources - stone and wood - and completes them exquisitely with a few statues on the outside and other discreet valuables on the inside. Everything revolves around wood and the interior staircase is another homage to Kos Karoly and his Transylvanian style. Statuary and refined, the castle retains an intimate, friendly character also due to its size (the built area is 620 sqm). There are 6 bedrooms with private bathroom (their number can be supplemented through the attic partitioning), a dining room for 12 people, breakfast room, an orangery and large terraces, office, gym and table tennis, dressing room and dedicated hunting room (with a safety box for keeping the guns). The building has technical spaces and rooms for its staff, all with generous surfaces and state-of-the-art technical equipment. Moreover, the outbuildings are integrated into the landscape both practically and aesthetically; a special mention deserves the cellar dug in the ground, thus taking advantage of the constant temperature required for wine storage. Separately there is a pavilion for 25 people with barbecue area, bread oven and goulash kettle plus a garden of organic vegetables on 900 sqm. As no castle deserves its name without horses, le petit chateau has a stable and its outbuildings for two horses, in addition to the barn and the car garage.
