Selo near Bled, a modern residential villa with interesting architectural solutions, next to an original preserved farmhouse with outbuildings, in the village centre, a 15-minute walk from Lake Bled.

The old village centre of Selo is situated in a sheltered position at the foot of Dobra gora hill, and is made up of clustered farms, which, in addition to agritourism, are still home to agricultural activity. Directly below the farms, meadows and pastures stretch all the way to the Sava Bohinjska and beyond to the slopes of Jelovica, used for grazing, mowing and other farm tasks, and in more recent times especially for walking, hiking, cycling, fishing and other water and coastal activities.

In the middle of a rural village, in a sunny position, stands this unique property, where a modern primary building with a spacious paved courtyard is connected to the original farmhouse, and the two are combined into an ideal compact whole by carefully tended building, agricultural and forest land, totalling 12,000 m2.

The main building is the work of a well-known Slovenian architect, who has positioned the building in the space so that it acts as a kind of extension of the terrain configuration, almost imperceptibly transitioning from the green bank beneath the building into the area of the distinctive shell of the house. The internal arrangement of the spaces in the building is extremely interesting, the living areas are arranged in the form of a kind of amphitheatre with several individual mezzanine floors on which there are thematically separated spaces that define the way of life in the house - on the first mezzanine floor there are two rooms next to the kitchen, The next mezzanine contains the library, and below it on the ground floor is a beautifully furnished and equipped lounge. From this interesting open space, we then pass through the reception area into the rest of the house, first reaching another extremely interesting living area with access to the spacious terrace in front of the building, which, in addition to the neatly selected furniture, contains part of the stone wall on which the building is leaning and which the owner has very cleverly exposed.... From here we continue to the technical part of the building, before reaching the very nicely and practically arranged wine cellar, with a space for socialising. Then we complete the circular walk around the ground floor and come back to the main living area.

From the first mezzanine floor, we enter the attic space via an open staircase, where there is a really spacious master bedroom with a dressing room, a beautifully decorated and extremely large bathroom, followed by an additional bedroom with an en-suite bathroom and a small lounge with a view of the surrounding area.

At the entrance of the building there is a garage spacious enough to park two vehicles.

In the main building there is a total of about 580 m2 of space.

Farmhouse - the familiar look of the farmhouse has been deliberately preserved in its entirety, while new rooms have been created inside the building, which, with a really imaginative design and execution, create a very homely and welcoming atmosphere.

There is a large garage (two vehicles) on the ground floor, and the former stable has been converted into ancillary and technical rooms. The living areas are reached by a wooden external staircase connected to the porch: enter the entrance hall and then the open larch-wood-panelled living area, in the middle of which stands a superb rustic stove with benches around it, and the room combines a larger kitchen with a dining room and a living room, followed by a bathroom, and in the attic part of the building there is an open-plan bedroom with five beds. The rest of the farmhouse is still unfinished and a larger two-storey apartment could be built there. In total, the farmhouse has about 290 m2 of floor space.

Both buildings are independent units both in public records and with connections and heating method.

From the cobbled courtyard between the two buildings, a beautifully designed staircase amongst a variety of ornamental shrubs leads down to the lower terrace below the main building, which leads on to a very interesting and varied garden, with a multitude of fruit and forest trees and its own private pond.

The site, as mentioned, is 12,000 m2, part of the land under the building is a real botanical garden with a variety of ornamental shrubs, and in the western part of the site there is a larger group of fruit trees (mostly apples) planted on a closer part of the land. Further on, we enter a well-kept mixed forest, bordered in the southern part by a completely natural lake (pond), with fish, frogs, birds and other "inhabitants".. Above the wooded part of the property is a wooden hayloft for drying hay and storing a tractor and other farm machinery. The main building was built in 1985, using first-class classical materials (concrete, glass, Macedonian marble, granite and wood flooring). The building was then extensively renovated in 1996, followed by the installation of new burglar-resistant windows (ALU profiles) in 2017, a new roof and a solar power plant in 2022, and a heat pump to heat the main building, which reduced the cost of living in the building to a minimum (€30/month) -. the building is actually self-sustaining and low-energy house.

The farmhouse was completely renovated to its present state in 1996 (new foundations, injected walls, AB panels, plumbing, flooring, cladding, windows, doors, etc.) and refreshed again this year (façade, renovated garage).

The property for sale is a special type of property for a discerning buyer, combining the modern living style of a residential villa with the romantic domestic living environment of a farmhouse, all complemented by an extremely carefully landscaped garden, which, in addition to offering the various benefits and pleasures of living in nature practically on your doorstep, of course requires constant care and regular work to ensure that the property continues to function in a quality manner.

The lake is a 15-minute walk (800 m) away, the centre of Bled is a 25-minute walk away, and below the building there are various paths leading to the Sava Bohinjka, to the fields on both sides of the Sava, further on to the Jelovica plateau or along the Sava to the Bohinjska Bela, and further on to the Pokljuka plateau, in which there are plenty of opportunities for family outings, hiking tours or cycling.

The seller is making the sale conditional on the buyer reimbursing him for part of the costs incurred in the sale of the property.
