luxury villas for sale Ilfov County, Romania

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

The famous residential compound from the Bucharest metropolitan area is, without the doubt, Paradisul Verde - a real community developed in the Northern part of the capital city, in Corbeanca. Situated in the proximity of Bucharest , surrounded by the Corbeanca Lake and Forest, the entire atmosphere is dominated by nature, as well as by the exclusive club organisation of the compound. The safety and sustainability are important characteristics, but the advantages are numerous, from the kids playground, to others such as the sports areas and the primary education centres. Amongst all these, this exceptional villa built in 2015 is developed with both a generous inside area, as well as a spacious garden full of mature plants. Probably, one of the main house's attractions consists in her exterior, as well as interior design, the architect and designer' work generating a great impression not only for the building itself, but for the entire property, being a real modern piece. The ground floor is defined by the open living area that vibrates around a floating fireplace, but also due tot the spacial transitions towards the interior staircase, towards the dining area and to the open space kitchen. With the exception of the matrimonial area placed on the ground floor, the first floor is dedicated to the bedrooms and to other relaxing areas on the terraces, adding up to the comfort and relationship with the surrounding nature.
