Balatonszemes, Mártírok Street 25
Exclusively offered by RE/MAX!

Nestled within the town’s prestigious historic villa district, this meticulously rebuilt home offers an unparalleled blend of timeless elegance, modern comfort, and year-round livability.


LOCATION
One of the most distinctive areas of Balatonszemes is its historic villa district, whose origins date back to the 18th century.

Situated on the former Hunyady family estate, this elevated plateau overlooking Lake Balaton became home to an exclusive villa community in the late 19th century when Count Hunyady developed prestigious villa plots, establishing what is today known as the Upper Villa District.

Tree-lined streets shaded by mature chestnut trees, carefully preserved turn-of-the-century villas, and a remarkably green environment create an atmosphere of timeless sophistication that has become increasingly rare around Lake Balaton.

Located on the peaceful and virtually traffic-free Mártírok Street, this beautifully landscaped corner plot of approximately 700 sqm offers both privacy and convenience.

The mature garden has been designed as a true private oasis. Tall hedges and evergreen screening provide exceptional seclusion, while the premium heated and cooled swimming pool creates the perfect setting for summer relaxation.

The covered terrace flows seamlessly into the pool area, creating an ideal space for entertaining family and friends.


THE RESIDENCE
The property offers a net internal living area of 141 sqm, complemented by a 23 sqm covered terrace.

The interior is defined by generous proportions, abundant natural light, and refined material selections throughout.

At the heart of the home is an impressive 50 sqm open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area, where large-format glazing and direct terrace access create a remarkable sense of openness and connection with the outdoors.

The residence further comprises:
- Three bedrooms
- Two bathrooms
- Separate guest toilet
- Utility and laundry room
- Garden storage area
- Dedicated mechanical room

The lower level houses the indoor unit of the heat pump system, the heating and cooling buffer tank, and a 300-litre domestic hot water storage tank.

FULLY REBUILT TO MODERN STANDARDS IN 2024
In 2024, the property underwent a comprehensive, high-specification reconstruction and modernization programme.

Features include:
- Panasonic air-to-water heat pump system
- Underfloor heating
- Radiant ceiling heating and cooling
- Panasonic fan-coil units on the upper level
- Triple-glazed premium windows and doors
- High-end flooring and interior finishes
- Energy-efficient operation
- Monthly utility costs of approximately HUF 30,000 (electricity and water combined)

The result is a home that combines outstanding comfort with remarkably low running costs.

PRIVATE RESORT-STYLE POOL EXPERIENCE
The landscaped garden is centred around a premium ceramic composite swimming pool, positioned in the most private section of the property.

The pool features:
- Saltwater treatment system
- WiFi-controlled heating and cooling heat pump
- Elegant walkable WPC pool cover
- Granite coping
- Sunbathing terrace functionality

Crystal-clear water, advanced technology, and complete privacy create a genuine resort-style experience within your own garden.

DESIGNED FOR FOUR-SEASON LIVING
This three-bedroom residence has been designed and equipped for year-round use.

Today, Balatonszemes is far more than a seasonal holiday destination. Michelin-recommended gastronomy, year-round services, and one of the southern shore’s most discerning residential communities have transformed the town into a true four-season lifestyle destination.

This property is ideally suited for buyers seeking more than just a house by the lake — it offers a long-term lifestyle investment and a timeless home in one of Lake Balaton’s most distinctive historic villa districts.
