authentic Half Timbered Mountain House with 4,000 sqm Land, 1 hr to Sofia airport

Authentic Half-Timbered Mountain House with 4,000 sq.m. Land – Teteven Balkan

We are pleased to offer this charming traditional half-timbered house situated in the secluded Oselna hamlet, part of Golyam Izvor village, in the heart of the picturesque Teteven Balkan. Surrounded by forests, mountains and pristine countryside, the property offers exceptional privacy and an authentic Bulgarian mountain atmosphere.

The location is ideal for anyone seeking a peaceful retreat away from urban life, while remaining within convenient reach of Teteven and Sofia.

The House

This characterful traditional property has a solid and well-preserved structural construction, although it would benefit from cleaning, renovation and modernisation.

The house is arranged over two floors:

Ground floor – traditional stone construction:

• One smaller room
• One spacious room with two separate entrances

Upper floor:

• Three good-sized rooms
• Corridor
• Access via an external staircase

The traditional combination of stone and timber-frame construction gives the house considerable character and excellent potential for restoration into a unique mountain home.

Utilities & Access

• Electricity connected
• Water supplied from a natural spring beneath the house
• Main water supply available approximately 50–100 metres away
• Access approximately 200 metres from the asphalt road
• The final section is a rural track, currently best suited to a 4x4 vehicle

Large Private Garden

The property comes with an impressive approximately 4,000 sq.m. plot, offering exceptional space and privacy.

The land provides numerous possibilities for:

• creating a large private garden
• orchard or vegetable cultivation
• outdoor recreation
• landscaping
• keeping animals or small-scale agricultural activities

The property also includes a large traditional barn. Part of its roof is damaged and requires restoration, but the building offers substantial potential for storage, workshop space or other uses.

Exceptional Privacy & Natural Setting

One of the property's greatest advantages is its beautifully secluded location. There are no immediate neighbouring houses, with only two other properties situated some distance away along the hamlet.

The surrounding landscape offers forests, mountain views and fresh air, creating a genuine escape into nature while still allowing convenient access to nearby settlements.
