Property Description
Some houses are bought; others are fallen in love with. This charming, fully renovated farmhouse belongs to the latter category.
Situated on a quiet street in Balatonfőkajár, just 5 km from Lake Balaton, this lovingly renovated home is waiting for its new owner. It preserves the character of the past while offering a wide range of possibilities for modern living. Thick mixed-masonry walls, white window frames, a covered veranda, a plot of almost 2,000 m² planted with fruit trees, and a distinctive vaulted stone wine cellar create the atmosphere that makes a country home so appealing.
With 130 m² of living space arranged over two floors, the house comprises two separate living units, each with its own entrance and suitable for independent use. In total, it offers 3 bedrooms—2 of them on the gallery/mezzanine level—2 living rooms, 1 kitchen and 2 bathrooms. It could be ideal as a multi-generational home, for hosting guests, or as a private retreat by Lake Balaton where family and friends can all feel comfortable.
One of the house’s most beautiful features is its renovated vaulted stone cellar of approximately 10 m², with a heraldic-pattern brick floor and ventilation. The current owners use it with a table seating ten and unique chairs made from barrels—a perfect setting for long conversations, shared dinners and enjoying wines from the Lake Balaton region.
The garden’s rural character is enhanced by sour cherry, apple, quince, walnut and mulberry trees, as well as acacia, lilac and elderberry. There are also two wells on the property: an old, stone-lined dug well fitted with a submersible pump, and a covered artesian borehole whose usability has not yet been assessed. The covered veranda is the loveliest place for morning coffee, summer showers and unhurried afternoons.
The house was renovated carefully in several stages: the first living unit was completed between 2019 and 2021, the veranda in 2021, and the rear living unit by 2022. The roof tiles were replaced in 2018. The electrical wiring and plumbing have been renewed, as have several exterior surfaces. The windows and doors are custom-made timber units fitted with triple glazing, argon gas and Low-E glass.
The front living unit has five electric heating panels, four of which are Adax Neo WiFi models that can be controlled remotely. The living room also features a fireplace built by a local craftsman. The chimney in the rear living unit has been rebuilt, and provision has been made for the installation of air conditioning. Hot water is supplied by 120-litre and 80-litre boilers, with an instantaneous water heater in the kitchen. Glass-wool insulation is installed above the attic.
The house has traditional mixed masonry approximately 60 cm thick, made of adobe, brick and stone. There is no external thermal insulation. Thanks to its mixed-masonry construction, the house is well ventilated and provides a healthy living environment; no dampness has been observed.
Electricity, mains water and public sewerage are available, and internet access is possible. A gas connection point is located within the plot, but gas has not been connected to the house. The bespoke furniture made for the property may be purchased by separate agreement.
