Are you looking for a holiday home or are you planning to emigrate to Hungary?
In a beautiful natural setting with a magnificent panoramic view of the Kis-Balaton, a holiday home with a unique outlook is for sale on the vineyard of Zalaszabar!
The wine cellar and holiday home, built in 2000, are in excellent condition and are also perfectly suited as a permanent residence. The plot covers an area of 4,843 m² and features a well-maintained garden and an orchard. The building has solid brick walls and a floor area of 110 m². The property includes a detached single garage with a 10 m² covered parking space.
The living area is accessed via a staircase leading through the entrance hall into an open-plan living-dining room with a kitchen. Floor-to-ceiling windows make this room bright and provide a wonderful all-round view of the garden and the lake. In front of the living area is a balcony where you can enjoy the fascinating panoramic view of one of Hungary's most beautiful nature reserves, the Kis-Balaton, over a cup of coffee. For early risers, there is probably no better place than this to watch the sunrise. On the same level, there is a bedroom, a modern bathroom with a shower (renovated in 2024), and a separate toilet.
In the attic, there are two additional living rooms, equipped with wooden floors, built-in ceiling spotlights, and four skylights. The house also has two cellar rooms that can be used as storage or for keeping garden furniture and tools.
The garden features a built-in brick grill and cozy seating areas. In 2024/25, part of the garden was redesigned by a professional gardener to be low-maintenance. The garden gate was also replaced in the same year.
The property is located approximately 500 m from the village and is accessible via a paved road.
Keszthely (Lake Balaton) and Hévíz, with its famous thermal lake, are 22 km away. Budapest is 200 km, Graz 190 km, Vienna 215 km, and the Croatian coast (Rijeka) is 320 km away.
Electricity and water are connected to the house. Sewage disposal is managed via a closed septic tank. Hot water is provided by an electric boiler. A wood-burning stove ensures cozy warmth in the house on cold days.
In your absence, the house is looked after by a reliable, German-speaking property manager, and a gardener takes care of any necessary garden work as required. If desired, both are happy to continue offering their services.
Living and residing in the region:
The surrounding towns of Hévíz, Keszthely, and Nagykanizsa offer excellent infrastructure, featuring supermarkets, regular weekly markets, restaurants, and cafés.
For nature observers, the balcony is the best place to pursue their hobby. Deer, foxes, badgers, and stags can be spotted in the garden in the mornings and evenings, and in September, you can listen to the spectacular deer rutting.
The immediate area offers a wide range of leisure activities, such as cycling, fishing, sailing, equestrian sports, hunting, or golfing. The nearest golf course, Zala Springs Golf Resort, is only 20 km away.
