The Gingerbread House - Gradina €150,000 (approx £131,500) Stefan Stambolovo Veliko Tarnovo

Описание: Gingerbread House - Gradina 5192 (Formerly Stefan Stambolovo)

A Masterfully Renovated Bulgarian Heritage Home with Annex, Barn & Orchard 🇧🇬

📍 Gradina (formerly Stefan Stambolovo)

There are renovated houses…
And then there are homes where someone truly understood the soul of the building ✨

Set behind its traditional stone wall on approximately 1,800m², this beautifully restored Bulgarian property combines original character with modern comfort in a way that is incredibly hard to find.

The ornate stucco façade 🤍
The deep wooden eaves 🌳
The solid stone barn standing proudly beside it 🪨

It feels established. Grounded. Important.


🏡 The Main House

Fully insulated, rewired, replumbed and fitted with UPVC windows and doors, this home offers comfort all year round while keeping its heritage alive.

🛏 Accommodation Includes:
• 3 Bedrooms (including annex suite)
• 3 Bathrooms 🚿
• 2 Lounge rooms 🛋
• 2 Kitchen-diners 🍽
• Separate annex with en-suite
• Attached conservatory room 🌞
• External staircase allowing flexible living arrangements

Rooms feature ceiling fans and wood-fired burners creating warmth and atmosphere through the winter months 🔥

Exposed beams 🪵
Solid wood floors 👌
Thick whitewashed walls 🧱
Cosy fireplaces that make you want to cancel plans and stay home ❄️🔥


🌿 The Annex

Perfect for:

• Guest accommodation 🛌
• Airbnb income 💶
• Visiting family 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦
• Independent living space

It includes its own en-suite and access to the charming conservatory room, a beautiful, light-filled space made using reclaimed original windows 🪟✨


🌳 Outside Space

The courtyard area feels private and peaceful, with:
• Traditional well ⛲
• Mature planting 🌱
• Orchard with multiple fruit trees 🍎🍒🍐
• Sheltered off-road parking 🚗
• Large stone barn 🪨
• Multiple workshops and outbuildings 🔨

The barn alone offers huge potential — studio space 🎨, events 🎉, further accommodation 🏡, or simply an impressive storage space with authentic character.


📍 Location

Gradina offers:
• Good expat community 🌍
• Small shops and local bars 🍺
• Bus service 🚌
• 15 minutes to Polski Trambesh
• 25 minutes to Veliko Tarnovo

You get countryside calm without isolation 🌄


✨ The Important Practical Bits

✔ New electrics ⚡
✔ New plumbing 🚿
✔ Fully insulated 🧱
✔ UPVC windows & doors 🪟
✔ Sold fully furnished (including appliances) 🛋🍳

You could move straight in tomorrow 🔑


💫 Why This Property Stands Out

Many homes claim to be “renovated.”

This one has been renovated with respect 🤍

The original beams remain.
The proportions feel right.
The materials suit the house.

It hasn’t been stripped of its Bulgarian identity, it’s been enhanced.

At €150,000, you are not just buying square metres.

You’re buying history 📜, atmosphere 🌿, space 🌳, income potential 💶 and a home that already feels loved.

And homes like this do not come along often.
