This attractive property includes a renovated house, an enormous 6,015 sq.m garden and several outbuildings. A lot of renovation has already been done by the existing owners and the price has been reduced to allow for the work that remains to be done (such as rendering and painting the outside of the building). The property is situated in the town of Cherven Bryag, which is on the main railway line between Sofia and Varna. There are 5 shops within a short walk from the house, so you won't have far to walk when you do your weekly shopping. The town centre is only 5 minutes away by car, or half an hour's walk. It offers a selection of shops, as well as medical services, schools, a railway station and other local facilities. Cherven Briag is now a mountain resort with new hotels and restaurants, nightclubs, coffee bars and swimming pools, so there is plenty to keep the whole family occupied.
The house has been fitted with new uPVC windows. The ground floor of the house has been totally renovated and is used as the main living area. It includes an entrance porch, a central hallway, a living room, a kitchen/dining room, a double bedroom and a family-sized bathroom. The living room and bedroom have air conditioning. There is a central heating system which is fed by a wood-burning stove. The stove also makes an attractive feature in the cosy living room. The hallway, living room and kitchen/dining room all have laminate floors. The bedroom and bathroom have natural wood floors. The house is connected to a fast internet service and to cable TV with over 100 channels.
An internal staircase leads to the upper floor. At the moment this floor is being used for storage, but with a little work it would be possible to install a second bedroom, perhaps with an en suite shower and toilet. The house also has a large basement which, if converted, would double the living area. This would be quite a simple job, although you would need to lower the basement floor to give more height to the rooms.
In addition to the main house, there is also a summer kitchen, a barn and 3 other buildings, all situated within the vast 6,015 sq.m garden. The garden has two gates, one for pedestrians and a double gate for vehicles. There is a vineyard and a well. The land is registered as 3 separate plots. If you wish, you could sell two of the plots and still have a very large garden.
The nearby city of Pleven offers an even wider range of shops and facilities, including large hypermarkets such as Metro and Kaufland. Pleven can be reached by car, by train or by bus from Cherven Bryag.
