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 solved 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.
