Property For Sale
I became involved in the Bulgarian property market
back in 2004 when I looked to purchase a new build apartment in Bansko.
Luckily for me, due to many problems with the developer and agent, I
pulled out of the deal and after much wrangling and fighting, got my
money back. I went on to purchase a portfolio of rural houses (now
totally 11 houses and 1 plot of land) and have renovated 4 of these and
had a new house built from scratch. I am now selling a handful of these
properties as has become too much to manage them all on my own, keep on
top of the gardens, check the properties regularly and currently not
looking to do any further renovations.
I now live near Stara Zagora and have a small
selection of property for sale. Mainly a few of my own houses and a
couple for friends. I no longer work with any agencies.
If you wish to come and stay for a few days, see the area, view some
properties, see the properties I have renovated so you get an idea of
what can be done at what price, please contact me.
Below are a few of the properties
that I currently have for sale. I also run
http://www.thetravelbug.org
and more are listed on this site, as well as general information on
investing in Bulgaria.

Room House with Land
Price: Around 3,500 Euros
A 2 storey house with 2 rooms on the ground floor, and
external stone steps to a terrace and into a large central hall with two rooms
off it and a smaller room ideal for a bathroom. There is also separate building
that could be used as a garage or a large storage or converted into a guest
annex. In front of the property is a good size garden, behind the house there
are several outbuildings and to the side is a small field. Needs a lot of work
but price reflects this.

Small Bungalow with Field
Price: Around 7,000 Euros
This little house has a central hall, 2 larger rooms and a
small kitchen room with internal sink. There is a small basement and several
small buildings to the rear. In front of the house there is a small garden with
vines and fruit trees. There is then a large field next to the property of
around 2000sqm, suitable for building on, grazing, selling off as a separate
plot. The house is in decent condition but will require a septic tank, new
plumbing and wiring and internal decoration.

Red Brick House with 1900sqm
Price: 8,950 Euros
This house is generally in good condition, but will need
connecting to the mains sewerage (to side of house), an internal bathroom
fitting and re-wiring. Downstairs will also require some redecoration
(plastering, new floors etc) and the glass conservatory type area really needs
replacing. The house is a 2 minute walk from the village train station, which
serves all the main stations in Bulgaria.
There is a small garden in front and to the side of the
property and a large field behind. The property is on the edge of the village at
the top of a small hill.

Character House with 1500sqm and Additional Building
Price: 8,950 Euros
My first purchase and has great character. Has internal
plumbing and a basic bathroom downstairs. There are two bedrooms upstairs and a
kitchen and lounge downstairs, small barn to side and barn/garage behind. Needs
a lot of work but nice village and area and close to mountains and main Sofia to
Burgas road.
The plot is 1500sqm with an additional building at the
bottom which used to be a mini market.

3 Bedroom Partly Renovated House with Additional
Building Plot I originally bought this
house to extend and renovate and to be my main home but then decided I
preferred to build a brand new house from scratch.
The property consists of a 2 storey villa.
Downstairs there is a large bedroom, small wet room with new electric
boiler, toilet, shower and sink, and a large kitchen/living area with
open fire place. The kitchen has been recently retiled and plastered.
The second storey is accessed by a fairly narrow
and steep metal stair case and leads to two further bedrooms, one with
access to a small balcony.
There is an additional tavern in the basement
with storage area. This is all wood panelled and makes a great bar or
entertaining area.
There is a septic tank and the property is
perfectly liveable in, having been used by various friends for a few
months at a time while they renovated their own houses in the area.
There is a flat, square plot of 800sqm with a
few vines and fruit trees surrounding the property and an additional
700sqm opposite, which would be ideal for a separate building plot.
I gained full planning permission with all
architect's plans and proposals (approved by local municipality) for a
large two storey extension to incorporate a sun room, a new kitchen at
the rear, stairs to the tavern, internal stairs to the second floor
and then a main bathroom and large terrace, giving magnificent views
over the mountains. These plans will all be handed over to the new
owner and cost in the region of 2000 Euros for all fees, drawings,
permissions and taxes.
Price: 25,000 Euros or nearest offer |

Lovely, 2 Bedroom House, completely renovated, lived
in by English It is situated in the village of Nikalievo, a 5
minute drive from Gurkovo (and Hemblass pass over to Veliko Turnovo) and
about 40 minutes from Stara Zagora and Sliven and around 25 minutes from
Kazanlak. It is a large village with all amenities. The centre has a
couple of small super markets as well as other shops such as small DIY
shops and clothes shops. There is a health centre with 2 local doctors
plus a weekly specialist from Stara Zagora, a dental clinic and a chemist.
There is a post office, bank, small gym, coffee bars, small summer
restaurants (2 very good ones we regularly visit) and a bus station, train
station, petrol station, church and theatre.
The village is just off the main road to Sliven and
the Black sea coast and Kazanlak and through to Stara zagora. It is close
to the Sredna Gora mountains where there are many walks, a small hostel, a
wide variety of flora and fauna and the Balkans are just over the road on
the other side so perfectly placed for those enjoying nature and walking.
There is a river running by the village and lakes nearby with good fishing
(Carp, Bream, Roach, Rudd, Perch, Pike, Chub, Barbel, Crucian Carp.....).
The house was previously the country residence of a
highly honoured and famous Bulgarian historian and chancellor of the Sofia
University. His monument stands in the centre of the village.
The house itself is a 5 minute walk from the centre
but down a quiet (tarmac) street. You enter the house through a gate into
the completely landscaped and lawned garden. There are then 2 entrances to
the house. One is through the main wooden door into the hall and the other
is into the large conservatory room.
Entering through the main door into the hallway,
there are stairs on the left leading up to a landing area (currently used
as a small office space) and two large double bedrooms. Downstairs there
is a large storage type room (no windows), a lovely small living
area/dining room and then a bathroom and kitchen and conservatory.
There are a couple of steps leading down into the
living room and then back up again to the corridor leading to the bathroom
and kitchen. The bathroom has an electric boiler for hot water, shower
with half bath, toilet, sink and currently houses the washing machine.
The kitchen has a large traditional fire place which
heats the water for the central heating and there are radiators throughout
the house. There is plenty of work surface and fitted units.
The conservatory area is from PVC and gives a large
additional living space with views over the garden. There is also an
additional sink and kitchen units in the far end and two door ways to
outside.
The kitchen roof has recently been insulated and
re-roofed and inside has been newly painted. It is well decorated through
out.
There is cable TV, internet and phone.
The plot is around 850sqm and very private. There
are lawned areas and raised flower beds as well as areas for vegetables,
main fruit trees (peach, pear, plums, nectarines, figs and cherries) and a
large area shaded by vines. There is a large fish pond, separate barn and
dog kennel plus irrigation system for the garden and pump and outside
toilet.
There is also a large garage with additional room
attached with fireplace, which could be converted to guest accommodation
if required.
This is the prefect house for anyone who wants to
move straight into somewhere requiring no work and who likes gardening
(although local gardener could be arranged). Current owners are moving to
a new house and looking to complete the sale sometime in spring 2009.
Price: 37,000 Euros o.n.o (including commission)
