Full Description


Beautifully Restored Historic House with Panoramic Old Town Views beside Gurko Street, Veliko TarnovoLocated in one of the most desirable and historically significant areas of Veliko Tarnovo, this beautifully restored two-bedroom house presents a rare opportunity to own a fully renovated home just moments from the famous Gurko Street. Combining authentic Bulgarian Revival character with modern comfort, the property is ready for immediate occupation and is equally suited as a permanent residence, luxury holiday home or boutique guest house.
 
General Gurko Street is one of the oldest and most photographed streets in Veliko Tarnovo. Dating back centuries and named after General Iosif Gurko following the Liberation of Bulgaria in 1877, the cobbled street is renowned for its beautifully preserved Revival houses, traditional atmosphere and spectacular views across the River Yantra towards the historic monuments of the old town. Despite its peaceful setting, the property is only a short walk from the modern shopping streets, cafés, restaurants, museums and cultural attractions that make Veliko Tarnovo one of Bulgarias most desirable places to live and visit.
 
The house offers 88 sq m of beautifully presented accommodation arranged over two levels. The upper floor extends to approximately 48 sq m and welcomes you through an entrance hallway leading to a bright and comfortable living room, a modern fitted kitchen and a spacious bedroom. An internal staircase connects to the lower floor of approximately 40 sq m, where a second hallway leads to another generous bedroom, a stylish shower room, a separate WC, a practical laundry room and additional storage beneath the staircase.
 
Originally believed to date from around 1920, the house has been the subject of an extensive and carefully planned renovation that preserves its historic character while introducing the comfort expected from a modern home. A completely new roof structure has been constructed using traditional terracotta tiles in keeping with the original design, together with high-quality insulation, new gutters and rainwater drainage. A professionally installed French drainage system protects the property against damp, while new plumbing, a completely rewired electrical system, handmade internal and external doors, and replacement windows on the upper floor complete the structural improvements.
 
Particular attention has been given to preserving the traditional atmosphere throughout the property. Original wooden floors have been meticulously restored wherever possible, with new timber flooring carefully matched to complement the existing character. The bathrooms feature distinctive ceramic finishes inspired by Bulgarian Revival architecture while incorporating contemporary styling and quality fittings.
 
The modern kitchen is fully equipped with quality appliances including an electric oven, ceramic hob, microwave oven, coffee machine and fridge freezer, making the property immediately ready for occupation. Heating and cooling are provided by three modern air conditioning units, ensuring comfortable living throughout every season.
 
Large picture windows frame magnificent panoramic views across the historic old town towards the State Art Gallery Boris Denev, the Asenevtsi Monument, Stambolov Bridge, the winding River Yantra and the wooded slopes of Sveta Gora Hill. A charming paved courtyard of approximately 8 sq m provides an attractive low-maintenance outdoor space for relaxing with a morning coffee or evening drink while enjoying the peaceful surroundings.
 
Parking is available nearby on the street together with a small shared parking area used by local residents.
 
The location is simply exceptional. Within only a few minutes on foot you can explore the vibrant centre of Veliko Tarnovo with its boutiques, restaurants, cafés and cultural landmarks, including the magnificent Tsarevets Fortress. Government offices, administrative buildings and everyday amenities are also within easy walking distance, making the property equally practical for permanent living.
 
Thanks to its prestigious location, outstanding renovation, historic charm and immediate readiness for use, the property offers excellent potential as a luxury holiday rental, boutique guest house or premium Airbnb investment, while equally providing an elegant private residence in one of Bulgarias most celebrated historic settings.
 
Properties of this quality and location rarely become available. Early viewing is highly recommended to appreciate everything this exceptional home has to offer.
