Ostrov, Vratsa, Bulgaria

Rural property with house, old annex, big garage and spacious plot of land situated in a lively village on the banks of the Danube river. The house is located in a quiet spot within the limits of the village about 4-5 minutes away by car from the center, shops and the small river port. The place had been empty for several years now and requires certain amount of renovation and repairs in order to be brought back to modern day living standards. The house has two floors with separate entrances. The ground level consists of living room with kitchenette, storage room and corridor with bathroom at the far end. The upper floor has terrace, three bedrooms and a corridor with bathroom at the bottom. Next to the house is the garage which is very big and spacious structure with the possibility to hold an extension of the house or a big terrace on top. Further into the yard one can find an old annex and a storage building but both structures are in bad condition and will need substantial repairs in order to be brought back to good, usable state. The plot of land is quite spacious and some of it is sloped so at the highest point one can get better views of the surrounding area and the vicinity of the village. The house is located in a neighborhood which is not much populated so this is the perfect place for rest and relaxation as plenty of peace, quiet and fresh air are guaranteed. The soil here and the moderate climate helped by the wind currents affected by the passing Danube river make the place great for all kinds of gardening activities such as growing fruits and vegetables, making a small orchard, looking after animals, etc. The village is located on the banks of the Danube and is situated about 20 km away from the nearest town. There is the seat of the local council and also a ferry port providing connection over the river between Bulgaria and Romania. There one can find different shops and stores, construction materials, bank and ATM, restaurants and bars, police station, doctor, dentist, regular bus to the regional capital city Vratsa and much more.
