Smart Green Home

We are offering a modern, energy-efficient family home into good hands – a property that represents a long-term, value-preserving investment thanks to its premium construction quality, exceptionally low running costs and multifunctional layout.

This is a rare opportunity in Újszeged, not comparable to surrounding family houses, as it is fully green, spacious and equipped with advanced energy-saving solutions:

– Solar panels generate a significant share of the home’s electricity.
– A ground-source geothermal heat pump provides both heating and cooling.
– Solar thermal collectors supply domestic hot water during sunny periods.
– Smart home system: advanced building services control energy-efficient operation.
– Low utility costs: with a net floor area of 341 m², electricity consumption is approx. 320 kWh per month, corresponding to about EUR 31 per month, including heating and cooling. This is far below what would normally be expected for a house of this size. For a property like this, utility costs are typically extreme – here, however, the complex energy system keeps operating costs unusually low.

UPDATE

A newly built property with similar technical specifications and three residential units would currently cost over EUR 1.10–1.18 million. Thanks to its fully green technology and smart-home features, this property offers a significantly more favorable price-to-value ratio.
The new asking price is EUR 0.965 million.

In addition, as a value-enhancing investment, the property is being submitted to the Home Energy Storage Program, under which an inverter replacement and a brand-new 10 kWh energy storage system may be installed in the future, with an investment value of approximately EUR 6,560. This further supports the property’s sustainable future and serves the buyer’s long-term interests.

DETAILS

Situated on an 800 m² plot, the three-storey property offers a total of nine rooms, combining green technologies, a homely atmosphere and modern comfort. As shown in the photos, natural light flows generously throughout the house.

The property consists of three fully equipped residential units, each featuring an open-plan living room with kitchen, two bedrooms and a private bathroom. Private and shared spaces are well separated (accessible via separate staircases), yet can be connected if desired.

This multifunctional property adapts easily to different life situations:

– The two upper residential units have separate staircases with independent street access, making them ideal for rental, office or medical practice use – an excellent investment opportunity. The building layout also allows for potential future condominium subdivision.
– One separated unit is ideal for remote work, providing a quiet and dedicated home-office environment that supports work-life balance.
– Three independent entrances ensure peaceful co-living – ideal for families with grown children: together, yet independent.
– Young families can benefit from both options: short-term rental income initially, and later expanded living space as the family grows.

The ground-floor unit includes a bedroom and a 55 m² gallery-style living room, filled with natural light and space. This connects directly to a 19 m² kitchen with granite countertops and a kitchen island. This central area forms the heart of the home and opens onto a south-west facing terrace featuring a built-in brick barbecue and pizza oven.

The ground-floor bathroom includes a dual-mode sauna (infrared and Finnish). The first floor connects all three units, which can be opened together or separated as needed. The two upper units feature 27 m² and 29 m² open-plan living rooms, each with two bedrooms and a private bathroom. The second bedrooms are located in the attic, where climate-controlled spaces and exposed beams create a cozy, classic loft atmosphere.

The 44 m² double garage is heated and cooled and fitted with an electric, insulated Hörmann garage door. Inside the fenced area, there is space for an additional car, camper or caravan. The wide street frontage allows parking for up to seven vehicles and even provides space for children’s sidewalk chalk drawings.

The façade features a self-ventilating, mortar-free NovaBrik brick cladding, both elegant and weather-resistant. Premium Internorm windows ensure excellent thermal insulation and noise protection.

The garden is lovingly maintained and blooms throughout the summer with fragrant plants such as fruit trees, lilac, raspberries and lavender. A white pergola is gently entwined with blackberry and kiwi vines. The automatic irrigation system is supplied by rainwater and a drilled well. A wind-sensor-controlled electric Somfy awning shades the terrace.

Children can enjoy a wooden playhouse with slide and sandbox, while the living room features a custom-built under-stair “hideaway” with handcrafted wooden doors and windows – a favorite retreat for kids.

The garden is green – but the house is even greener.

Green technology + smart solutions = Smart Green Home.

Such a large, multi-unit, fully green family home is truly rare in Újszeged. Its energy system ensures exceptionally low operating costs:

– A Dimplex geothermal heat-pump system with ground probes provides reliable heating and cooling year-round.
– A water-jacket fireplace economically supplements heating when in use, combining atmosphere with efficiency.
– Solar collectors assist in domestic hot-water production, meaning that during sunny periods, hot water is largely solar-powered.
– There is no gas connection. An 8.5 kW photovoltaic system (Fronius Symo) further reduces operating costs. A central light corridor floods the stairwell and living area with daylight – solar panels on the roof, sunshine inside the home.
– Rainwater from the roof is collected in a 6 m³ tank for irrigation; when rainfall is insufficient, a 53-meter drilled well automatically replenishes the system. A secondary water meter enables irrigation cost benefits.

The Smart Green Home is equipped with an advanced Building Management System (BMS), offering both energy efficiency and comfort advantages:

– Ceiling, wall and underfloor heating and cooling, individually controllable by smartphone or laptop. 64 temperature sensors ensure precise comfort zoning.
– Heating or cooling automatically switches off when windows are opened, preventing unnecessary energy loss.
– Hot-water production and climate control are fully programmable – even vacation mode is supported, so a comfortable home awaits your return.
– The house controls almost everything – except breakfast (for now). Expansion options remain open, ensuring long-term technological relevance.

Additional smart features include:

– Electric Somfy shutters on all four sides of the house, operated via remote control or wall switches.
– A Paradox zoned alarm system and six security cameras, accessible via smartphone through the DMSS (Dahua Mobile Surveillance System).

LOCATION

The surrounding area guarantees suburban quality of life:

– The nearby Nova Shopping Center offers a supermarket, pharmacy, children’s play center, restaurants and café.
– The neighboring Gellért Leisure Center provides extensive sports facilities (tennis, fitness, indoor football, squash, climbing, etc.).
– The quiet cul-de-sac ensures safety and minimal traffic – ideal for families with children.
– Within minutes on foot are Kállay Grove, Holt-Maros and Erzsébet Grove, perfect for jogging, dog walking or playground visits.

SUMMARY

The property’s size is substantial (341 m² net, 431 m² gross), yet its true value lies not in square meters but in sustainability and multifunctional usability. Despite its size, operating costs remain low, while the flexible layout allows for subdivision, rental or mixed use.

“Modern comfort, generous space for family” – this is the philosophy of the house.

We hope this exceptional property will find owners who value and enjoy it as much as we have. This is not a sterile luxury residence, but a warm, livable premium family home. A true rarity in Újszeged: spacious, multifunctional, fully green, low-cost and technologically advanced.
