In the long history of the Leordeni, a village which was first documented in 18th of May 1526 by the voievode (local prince) Radu de la Afumaţi, we can find extraordinary specificities from the evolution of the Romanian society along the great noble families which shaped it. Leordeni, cornerstone of important dynasties – Leurdenii, Băleanu, Golescu, Lahovary or Kretzulescu – was home to imposing residences and domains corresponding to the great power and reputation of their owners. One of the last great lords in Leordeni was Nicolae Kretzulescu (Crețulescu) (1812-1900) founding father of the Romanian Academy and a stated liberal appointed Prime Minister three times. Nicolae Kretzulescu, Constantin Brâncoveanu and Iordache Kretzulescu’s heir of Leordeni, built an impressive estate which later has been inherited by his daughter, Anna, who married Lahovary. At the same time Kretzulescu was managing his estates, Nicolae (Nae) Gussi (1830-1901), appeared on the scenery as administrator of the Golescu family’s fortune – another great family in Leordeni. After 1880, Gussi becomes the owner of the Golescu estates which were neighbouring those belonging to the Prime Minister. The hostility between Kretzulescu and Gussi was notorious, and the economic struggles between them both culminated in a series of lawsuits at the end of the nineteenth century. The variety of lands (arable, vineyards, forests) defining the estates of the Leordeni would evolve over time through various agrarian reforms, landing or expropriation laws, inheritances, or successions. And in the interwar period these testified the last two great families. The Gussi family (Alexandru, Traian, Paul and Elena) and the Lahovary family (through Anna) held together approximately 550 ha, plus another 100 ha of vineyards. They were in fact the descendants of Nicholas Kretzulescu and Nae Gussi. The Golescu-Gussi estate evolved notably through the two centuries of history. The first version of the manor was built by the Golescu family, probably during the life of Iordache Golescu, who also built the Golescu Church in the proximity of the estate. Subsequently, after Nicolae Gussi’s ownership, the property changed, so that after 1900, Alexandru Gussi (1864-1947) revolutionized the manor and the entire estate. In fact, Alexandru, a magistrate and a politician with an important activity in the Muscel Bar and Prefecture, would devote much of his career and life to the modernization of his native lands. Owning the old house of the Golesti, Alexander rebuilt it between 1938-1939, making it a truly monumental construction. After 1949, the entire domain was nationalized and had different functionalities serving the communist institutions (the office of "Sovrom Petrol", IAS and the City Hall).

Heading to Huedin from Cluj-Napoca, one steps into Călatei Land, a region with villages where there are still carved wooden gates, old houses, authentic customs; a region where the people cook old recipes, wear folk costumes and enjoy traditional dances. Mănăstireni is only 50 km away from Cluj-Napoca, in Călatei Land, a settlement probably dating back to antiquity according to the Roman vestiges embedded in the walls of the old reformed church: two carved funerary lions and a medusa (gorgon) head. Otherwise, the first documentary attestation of Mănăstireni dates from 1332. Walking along the country road, the real estate is located right on the edge of the forest: a glimpse of paradise in an undisturbed oasis of green and peace. On the fenced plot of 7,500 sqm, the buildings that make up the property respect the spirit of the place and invite to pastoral retreat. The first building is the guest house, with lime plastered walls and roses in front of the porch. The house has two living spaces with separate entrances. The interiors are furnished in a rustic style, with the roof wooden beams left uncovered and stone finishes in the kitchen area. Painted pieces of furniture and doors, pillows embroidered with traditional motifs or the iron stove are the details which preserve the specifics of the place while providing modern comfort. The old farmhouse was divided into two independent spaces, connected by an "alley" whose roof is being finished, but which projects the space directly into nature. The first building is structured on two levels: ground floor and attic. It is a railroad house, with windows on both sides. The exterior stone walls seem to prepare for an austere and minimalist interior. In reality, the interior design is sophisticated, ingeniously using the linear layout of the construction by creating spaces with precise destinations in complementary styles. The rustic style kitchen is complemented by the antiqued wooden frames and the wooden roof. Comfortable furniture and finishes with stone and wallpaper are the choice for the living room opposite the open kitchen . The bedroom is bright and the home's two bathrooms display an impressive design and quality. The attic occupies only a portion of the building and is set up as a bedroom. The second building in the old farmhouse is not finished, but used as an arts and crafts workshop and warehouse.The former shed, with a generous size, is used as a garage for 2 or 3 cars. The real estate is truly a glimpse of paradise, a perfect retreat into nature and access to fairy-tale lands, unspoiled by the passage of time. It can be kept in the current structure or expanded according to the vision of the future owner. photo Florin Pepene

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

The castle was built during the 17th century by Gyulay Ferencz, an Austrian general, the only child of Hungarian nobleman Gyulay Ignacz. Ferencz built the mansion on the site of a smaller building. The general’s family ruled the town called Mintia, that was renamed Marosnemeti, a term derived from the Hungarian word "nemet", that translates to "German". Several descendants of the Gyulay family lived at the castle. Historical documents from 1806 state that the Mintia mansion was owned at that time by Gyulay Istvan, followed by Albert and K.R Gyulay. Countess Gyulay of Mintia, who married Ladislau Kuun of Osdola, later inherited the domain together with her brother, Ludovic. In 1848, the Gyulay family took refuge at Cluj and, after the revolution, Ludovic, Ladislau Kuun, his wife Constance, and their children, Irene and Geza, returned to Mintia. Ludovic was the last heir of the Gyulay family. He wrote over 100 journals about the mansion and about Mintia. All of them are preserved at the Cluj-Napoca history museum. Ludovic Gyulay modified the building in 1834, giving it the shape it has today. Ludovic Gyulay never got married and, therefore, never had any heirs. His fortune was inherited by his brother-in-law, Ladislau Kuun, followed by his son, Geza Kuun. Geza studied Hungarian and German literature at the Universities of Budapest and Gottingen, and was a member and vice president of the Budapest Academy of Sciences. He was part of Vienna’s elite social circles, and became friends with the famous composer Franz Liszt – one of the most prominent pianists of all time. It was then that he also met writer Elena Ghica – daughter of Mihai Ghica, niece of Grigore Ghica the 4th, and the first woman to have climbed the Mont Blanc peak, on June 1st 1860. After 1870, Geza Kunn settled at Mintia and married Vilma Kemeny, the daughter of baron Kemeny of Magyar-Gyeno Monosto. His presence here transformed the town into a gathering place for eminent representatives of the cultural and scientific scenes, which included V. Zakrzewski – professor at the Cracovia University, Al. Szilagyi – secretary of the Historical Society, baron Balazs Orban, A. Szecsen –Imperial Court marchal. The beauty of the mansion located on the bank of Mureș River was also admired by the president of the Archeological Society – Solyon Fekete, the director of the Deva History Museum – Teglas Gabor, and by scientist Samuel Brassay – regarded as Transylvania’s last polymath. The immense library of the Mintia Castle and the salon, decorated with family portraits and precious objects, were visited by prefect George Pogany, subprefect Coloman Barcsay, count Coloman Esterhazy – director of the Transylvania Museum, by Otto von Keller – professor at the University of Prague, Zsolt Beothy – professor at the Budapest University, and by Norwegian scientist Conrad Nielsen. Baron Miklos Josika also traveled from Brănişca to Mintia, either on foot, by car, or on horseback. He also traveled by boat on Mureş River in order to admire the park that surrounded the castle. The rare species of plants and trees that embellished the park were mesmerizing. Count Kuun named the trees after the most important Hungarian writers, many of whom had been his friends. One of the trees, for example, bore the name of Attila, in the memory of Attila Gerando. Amid the rose bushes, the visitor could also discover numerous honorary or mortuary shrines. Geza Kuun died in 1905, on April 10th, and was entombed at Cluj. Legend has it that, although the body of count Geza was inhumed at Cluj, his heart was buried in the cemetery of the Mintia Reformed Church, alongside other members of his family and former owners of the castle. The Mintia domain, that comprises the castle and the park, is classed as a historical monument of national and universal importance, class A.

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

In Comarnic, green is at home; thousands of trees stretch billions of leaves towards the sun and spread shade and coolness around. In one of the high areas, on a tongue of land drowned in greenery, there are two identical houses; the "twin sister" is positioned at the back, not at all invasive in terms of privacy. The villa for sale, a modern and discreet construction at first impression, reveals its true elegance only from the glass-enclosed terrace – soft textiles in sand colors announce the chromatics of the entire house, and the exposed brick, the fireplace, the shades of cement gray and the dark metal joinery complete the atmosphere of a space designed to relax without being boring. In addition, being equipped with the necessary for an al fresco dinner, the panorama is guaranteed to be admired in the evening, when the forest darkens in the colors of twilight. The interior of the ground floor (kitchen, dining room, living room, one bedroom, bathroom and terrace) exploits the difference in level in an intelligent way, obtaining a decorative and functional step between the open kitchen and the living room. With a fireplace and soft colors, the living room is comfortable but with a certain alert feeling - here time does not flow, does not pass but is lived, enjoyed. The same goes for the first floor, where there are three bedrooms carefully decorated, with soothing shades; a luxury hotel atmosphere prevails with rounded asperities and discreet, stylish, chromatically articulated bathrooms. The master bedroom has a bathroom, sauna and a small terrace with a view. The design project is made and implemented by Simetrica Design; the furniture and materials are premium, as are the electronic equipment. The house is perfectly functional, the heating is done through the floor throughout the house (gas central heating). It has air conditioning and all the facilities, plus a person from the area who takes care of daily maintenance (cleaning, mowing the lawn, changing bedding, washing, etc.) which makes it very attractive as an investment for the purpose of tourist exploitation (AirBnB). Comarnic, for many just a town on the way to the mountains, has recently become extremely attractive for those looking for a clean place not far from Bucharest. It entices with hot bread and bagels on the main street, but the real treasures are hidden - the Lespezi hermitage, a hermitage of monks from 1661 and painted by Parvu Mutu the Painter; the Saint Nicholas church is newer, only from 1905, but it boasts a magnificent icon donated by Gheorghe Valentin Bibescu and Martha Bibescu. The Posada Hunting Museum with its exhibits - animals, weapons, hunting trophies. The spectacular Doftana Valley is also just a stone's throw away, and the more popular mountain resorts are not much further away either. Out of a complex with four plots, the property owns three plots, two are available for construction.

The historic streets in the center of the capital were also targeted in the modernization process of Bucharest in the interwar period, areas that, at that time, were opening up to the new economic and commercial domains. The urban block-villas would meet the required functionality needs- the building that can be found on 24-26 Polona Street, built in 1927-1928, is one of such type. The modern building, individually compartmentalized on each floor, has undergone a restoration, rehabilitation and reconversion process, becoming an ultramodern and multifunctional construction.

Built in the middle of the nineteenth century by baron Urban Petru of Monyoro, the mansion is located on the 79th National highway, on the road between Arad and Oradea, 28 km from Arad. In 1994, the mansion was completely renovated, and all the original architectural elements were preserved. The mansion provides the modern comfort, as it is connected to the water network, it has its own sewage and three gas central heating systems. There is an annex to the main building, equipped with all the standard utilities. As the yard is quite big, another house is being built, which will be used for residential purposes. In front of the mansion, there is a 50 sqm pool. There are thermal water springs at a depth of 700 m, which can be used to fill up the pool. Urban of Monyoro family was one of the important noble families of the Hungarian aristocracy. As mentioned in official records (1828), the first family member was Joseph Urban, and the family’s home was in Monyorod (today Manerau, Arad). The neoclassical mansion in Simand (only a few kilometers from Monyorod) was built in the second half of the 19th century. The mansion most likely belonged to Gyula Urban, the father of the most important member of the family, Peter Urban (1870-1935). Starting with the Eneolithic period up to the year 953 – when it is officially mentioned for the first time -, and on the modern times, Simand was one of the most important places in Transylvanian history. Moreover, in the 19th century, Simand was a strong economic hub, organizing fairs, having also present a strong Jewish community (in 1828 there were 400 Jewish people). For approximately 100 years, by the time when the mansion was built, the domain was owned by Urban of Monyoro family members. Most of them were high governors, politicians and even prefects in Arad county

This luxury real estate is located in a wooded valley, near the Voroneț River and only 4 km from the famous UNESCO heritage monastery. The two holiday homes complement each other in a bold architectural project, which uses and integrates every detail of Bucovina’s scenery. The first house is a very special and premium property, award-winning project at the National Architecture Biennale - 2023 edition as well as the Romanian Design Week 2024 edition. The materials, textures and shades - concrete, tree bark, steel are different from the classic residential options, based on brick and wood, bringing in a balanced industrial air, which contrasts but also complements the natural environment. The architects were not afraid of unevenness, slopes - the peculiarities of the location dictated the form following the function - they embedded diaphragms in the slope, supporting the house on pillars and thus giving it suppleness. The concept is focused on the idea of a "floating mystery box", anchored in the slope that also follows the slope of the land and is bonded with the landscape through discreet chromatics. The concrete infrastructure, with diaphragms placed perpendicular to the slope as a plinth, is left exposed. The integration into the landscape is ensured by the finishes of treated wooden battensimitating tree bark and corten steel with the typical rust shades of autumn leaves. The entrance is marked by two blue "V" shaped pillars - a disc reet tribute to Voronet Monastery symbolic colour - and invites you into a sequential space, built on half levels, with wide windows framing the outdoor landscape. With a 230 sqm carpet area, the house is organised on 2 levels and has also a garden terrace. The bright open atrium area connects all the spaces of the house. On the ground floor, the common spaces are placed at different heights. The refined living area starts with the refurbished and perfectly functional Laugerger & Gloss Mascagni grand piano accompanied by English sofas and armchairs and a minimalist fireplace - a reminder of the hearth in traditional homes. The 3-meters high window, central glass panel, frames both the Voronet river as well as the winding pathway in a fairytale frame, the Yin and Yang intersects in the heart of the home. The kitchen is placed at a higher level than the living area. The pièce de résistance, in addition to the top-of-the-range appliances, is the volcanic ash lava table, produced in a limited edition of 28 pieces by Swoonseditions. The second house Villa Trésor, is already a successfully branded business in Bucovina’s area with a large clients portfolio. Built in a "clean" style, the exterior design stands out for its minimalism and attention to detail spotted in window decoration or the repetition of the high ridge roof, on a smaller scale, at the entrance or its contemporary reinterpretation in the case of the gazebo. The gazebo is equipped with sink, grill and fireclay-clad pizza oven. Also outside, there is a 6 person wood-burning sauna and a luxury swimspa that can be used throughout the year. The built-up area of 200 sqm is organised on two levels. The interior design has strong English accents, from the handmade antique copper radiators to the vintage Victorian brass doorknobs. The doors and stairs are made of solid ash wood. The downstairs living and dining rooms are spacious and airy, showcasing limited edition handcrafted pieces of furniture, a fireplace and the living room wallpaper by Dutch designer Piet Hein Eek.Each of the four bedrooms has its own specific theme featured in the interior design elements of both the rooms and the related bathrooms. Rooms have double beds, thermal curtains, and the bathrooms have stucco wall finishes. The attic is multifunctional: either the perfect space to relax and socialise in the sitting area or the proper environment for an office in the workspace.

Seen from above, the landscape unfolds in a vast expanse of green, traced only by three parallel roads intersected by two others, all set far apart from each other. Between them, nothing but vegetation — and upon closer inspection, one area stands out through the symmetry of vineyard rows, neatly aligned in perfect order. A small orchard separates the vineyard from the winery. At ground level, access to the property is through a gate framed by red brick pillars; to the right, the eye is drawn to a house with the personality of the old and unconquered, while straight ahead lies the vineyard in all its splendor — 3.13 hectares in the heart of the D.O.C. Miniș / Crișana wine region. Here, Cabernet Sauvignon is cultivated using sustainable viticulture methods (the organic certification process for both the vineyard and the wine began in 2022). The grapes are vinified as a single varietal, and the winery holds vintages over ten years old, made from vines aged between 35 and 50 years. An additional feature that gives the estate a unique potential is the land subdivision – there are nine intravilan (buildable) plots, each with easy access (asphalt or gravel roads), utilities on site, and the possibility to build holiday cottages or bungalows. This configuration allows for the development of a tourist and leisure area, offering guests the opportunity to enjoy the complete vineyard and wine experience. The property includes vineyard maintenance services, as well as the full infrastructure necessary for premium wine production – from grape to bottle, under the Protected Designation of Origin (D.O.P. Miniș). There is also the possibility to store the wine produced in the estate’s cellars, while the central area of the property can host private events or wine tastings in an authentic, rustic, and elegant setting. Wine has been produced in Birăuaș since 1801, at that time under the name Josef Domany Estates, official supplier to the Imperial Court of Vienna, which obtained the title of K.U.K. Hoflieferant in 1899. Active again since 2002, the property now owns the most valuable part of these former estates — three wine cellars and part of the old vineyard. The vines embrace not only the land but also the corners of the house, climbing gently around old wooden shutters and up to the eaves. Alongside the low stone fences separating the areas and the wooden pillars supporting heavy red-tiled roofs, the breeze whispering through the ripe grape clusters tells the story of a life fulfilled through passion and dedication to nature. The Miniș wines were awarded in London (1862, 1876) and Budapest (1875, 1884) and have not lost their value today, continuing to receive awards and maintaining an average rating of 3.8/5 on Vivino. These wines have excellent aging potential, being barrel-aged in French oak, and the sale package includes approximately 20,000 bottles of premium bottled wine.In addition to the winery and winemaking equipment, the property also includes a mini-distillery (a Christian Carl column still with trays) where high-quality distillates are produced from wine and pomace (“Grappa”), as well as a special fortified wine (“vin de noix”). The property is sold as a fully functional business, including all equipment and machinery for wine production, distillation, and vineyard processing (complete list available upon request), along with a comprehensive branding and e-commerce package (new website, integrated online shop, logo rebranding, labels, business cards, wine list, etc.), domestic retail contracts (resellers/distributors and specialized venues). Next to the vineyard are two traditional houses (colne, built in the mid-19th century) totaling 380 sqm, arranged as tasting and relaxation spaces, a 210 sqm production building, 200 sqm of vaulted cellars, covered terraces, and an attic of approximately 200 sqm suitable for conversion. D.O.C. Miniș Vineyard - Cabernet Sauvignon – 12 years old, approx. 4,800 vines/ha on 3.13 ha and fruit orchard
