There’s a Romanian saying that holds each individual accountable for planting a tree, having a child and building a house during a lifetime, only the road is not strainght for everyone. Sometimes we trim trees planted by other hands, raise children with different DNA and make ours houses originally designed for other families. In the case of the house, this order of things can be a blessing in disguise - between dream and reality, between the drawing board and the final quote, syncopes, derailments and communication errors can happen so that the final result is accepted with regret, assimilated with embarrassment because it constantly reminds us the failure to translate imagination into practice. Having a ready-made house has the advantage of showing you first hand how it solve d one challenge or another, how it negotiated space and light, volume and comfort, concrete and turf. It's easy to feel its atmosphere, to qualify the vibe and evaluate what can be done to make it "home" moulded to your needs and expectations. For those who do not have the courage, time or energy to harness a building site buying a ready-to-move-in house offers instant gratification. A property with 1320 sqm of land, 7 rooms and an outdoor gazebo located in Breaza offers exactly this opportunity. It can be easily turned into a blank canvas for you to sketch whatever works for your family. The generous windows surfaces invite light inside and guide the gaze outwards to the distant mountains. A generous living room gathers the family around a board game or the friends for taste of the local brandy (for another local product, Breaza bulz, a visit to a nearby tourist sheepfold is recommended). The bedrooms have a comfortable size and the bathrooms have walk-in showers. With a serene atmosphere, surrounded by the green carefully manicured lawn, the property is ready for you, or your designer, to choose styles, color ranges and textures. Breaza (whose name seems to come from Slavic and refers either to a shepherdess with a white strand in her black hair or to a birch forest) is one of the oldest spas being certified since 1928. Its air purity was compared to the one in the Swiss resort of Davos. Although located on a popular route to the mountain resorts of Sinaia, Predeal and Poiana Brasov, Breaza has the advantage of being outside the crowded section that starts from Comarnic onwards. This makes access from Bucharest easy and a holiday home here becomes a destination for every weekend.
