Property Description: Stepped into the house with the landlady, from an old landed family here in Romania, and felt like I was openeing the vault to Al Capone`s crypt - except it was full of loot! The house - originaly it was one house - was built by the great grandfather and they were able to maintain possesion of the ground floor when the communists came. Nobody has lived in the apartment since the grandmother passed away many years ago and the apartment has become a storage space for the many pieces of furniture and paintings collected by the family over the years. House was very well built (in the 1930`s) in a French Classical fashion, but has some very interesting bits of Modernist design inside as well. Apartment enjoys two livingrooms, a working fireplace with ancient marble mantle, some absolutely amazing wood work and plastering on the ceilings, original thick oak flooring set mostly in a herringbone pattern, wonderful windows, two bedrooms, an original bathroom with old cast iron tub and blue floor tiles, kitchen (which is a 100% replacement job) and a wonderful brick cellar with iron rods keeping the masonry up and strong. Apartment also enjoys a private garden space of 75 sqm with a lovely shade tree. Ground floor has 155 usable square meters plus a basement space that looks like it might be abother 50 sqm. She`s really something special.
Neighborhood Description: Quiet street surrounded by houses of the same period. In the Icoanei neighborhood which is our favorite because of the walking distance to the cultural heart of the city, two picturesque parks, restaurants and history in architecture.
