STIRBEI VODA This 1923 villa built in a Brancovenesque style with modern influences is a mix of a townhouse and auberge, as it combines pre-war urban design with rustic features

March 2009 - From the Print Edition

Although situated in central Bucharest, the detached villa is isolated from the ebb and flow of the city due to its large back garden, with fir trees and a lawn, creating a breath of fresh air near one of Bucharest’s main thoroughfares.
The villa is now a company’s head office and can be used as an embassy headquarters, an office building or a residence, due to its large number of facilities. It is equipped with air conditioning, central heating and a security system.
The house, which covers 645 sqm, was completely refurbished in 2001. The 12 rooms are partitioned on two floors and are fully furnished. The entrance hallway has decorated columns and paintings depicting classic war scenes, while the ceilings are tall and laid with marble floors.
Outside a small decorative fountain and lamps bring a romantic touch. At the back of the garden there is a separate building with a large guest room in a rustic style, with wooden beams, a stove and a large wooden table in the middle, which is perfect for outdoor parties.
Below the villa is a wine cellar, with an entrance in the style of a country pub and a long table with small chairs, a wooden bar with rustic clay dishes. Here a wagon wheel hangs from the ceiling as a sign of good luck.
