Price: 29 000 €
Land: 1200 sq. m.
Location: Bulgaria, near Nikopol, Pleven

Property situated in the village of Novachene, Nikopol Municipality, Pleven District. The village is located in North-Central Bulgaria, 18 kilometers from the Danube river (and the border with Romania), 35 kilometers from the City of Pleven, 120 kilometers from Veliko Turnovo and 180 kilometers from the capital Sofia.
The property is located at the East end of Novachene, right on the crossing of the main road of the village and another smaller street. The estate comprises of a big two-storeyed villa house in excellent condition (after renovation), additional outbuilding offering another five rooms, several two-storeyed farm-buildings in very good condition, a garage, and a yard with 1200 sq.m. of land.
The main house is on two floors, in excellent condition, just plastered inside and outside in the summer of 2009. The first floor is more urban-styled than rural. It offers two big bedrooms, a living-room, kitchen with dinning area, and a brand new bathroom with a toilet (and a new septic tank built in the yard). All this is connected through a big corridor and a glazed entrance-hall. The house is ready to move in and it is offered for sale with all its furniture and house-hold goods.
Concrete outer stairs are leading to the second floor, which is mansard and having the same size as the first floor. It is very charming and spacious; it has two balconies offering stunning views towards the hills surrounding the village. The second floor could be turned into a nice studio apartment.
The house is brick-built, with reinforced concrete columns and concrete slabs, and is certified to resist an earthquake with a magnitude of up to 9 on the Richter's scale. The house is facing South-East which is also an advantage especially during the winter days.
Next to the house, there is another, smaller house for guests. It offers another four rooms and a kitchen. The guest’s house is in very good condition, but it will benefit from adding an internal bathroom with WC.
At the opposite side of the yard are located the farm-buildings. They are all brick-built and in very good condition. The two attached outbuildings (one of which is single storied, and the other - two storied) could be converted in almost anything: workshops, playing rooms, BBQ area, etc.
Another option is converting the outbuildings into additional living area - two more guest houses, or three studio apartments, two on the ground floor and another one on the upper. Having so much living area and outbuildings, the property could be developed into a B&B hotel accommodation, offering good rental potential.
Next to the farm-buildings there is another storage room and a garage with pit. There is a driveway, which allows parking several cars into the yard. The property is accessible through all seasons via two asphalt paved roads in very good condition.
All these buildings, forming in a peculiar manner a “small village in the village”, are located on a beautiful piece of land with size of 1200 square meters. The land is plane, in rectangular shape and very well-kept.
Adding a swimming pool would add even more charm and value to the property. At the moment there are lots of flowers, fruit-trees, trellis-vines, pine trees etc. Another plus to the estate is the draw-well. It could be used for watering the garden, filling-up a swimming pool, or as an alternative water supply for the house.
Water and electricity are connected to mains, Internet and Digital TV are also provided. There is electricity and water in all of the outbuildings.
The property is in excellent condition and offered for sale with all the house-hold goods and furniture. The house could be used for living right away; no renovations needed, unless any special requirements have to be reached.
