Alsóörs, Szőlőhegy For sale family house

SHORT SUMMARY
Located on one of the most sought-after sites in Alsóörs, on the hillside above the village, this house was built in 2014 and has since been renovated and furnished by its interior designer owner. Each of the three floors functions as an independent apartment with its own entrance, kitchen, bathroom, and separate meters, yet the floors can be connected through a shared staircase, allowing the house to be used as a single large family home. The usable area is 245 m², situated on a corner plot of 657 m², with three parking spaces accessible from two directions. The orientation is southern, offering views of Lake Balaton from the garden and all three floors. The garden has won the “Most Beautiful Garden of Balaton” award.

ABOUT THE HOUSE
This house does not look at the water from the shore, but from above. In the morning, the same view welcomes you from the garden, the living room, and the attic rooms: the village below on the slope and Lake Balaton stretching fully behind it. The southern orientation means sunlight bathes the house and garden from morning till evening. No later renovation can change this prime location, and there are few houses in Alsóörs situated this high with such orientation.

Built in 2014, the twelve-year-old structure has modern insulation and mechanical systems. The current owner, an interior designer, renovated and furnished the house according to professional standards. This is evident in the coverings, built-in furniture, and especially the kitchen. The furnishings can be purchased separately upon agreement, so the house can be taken over fully furnished.

Currently, the three floors operate as three separate apartments, each with an independent kitchen and bathroom, independently heated and metered. However, the house was designed so the floors can be connected via a common staircase, allowing it to become a single large family home. The buyer can choose between these options; the floor plan does not limit them.

The lower level includes a living room, kitchen with steam oven and dishwasher, pantry, laundry room, and a bathroom with a steam cabin. Steam cabins and laundry rooms are rare in holiday homes but become invaluable during longer stays. The attic features two rooms, a bathroom, and an independent kitchen; this level also has two attic storage spaces.

The corner plot is more than a formality here. The house can be accessed from two directions and accommodates three cars, which is practical for a holiday property hosting multiple guests or generations simultaneously. The plot also includes an outbuilding and a 4 m² pantry.

ABOUT THE GARDEN
The garden here is not an afterthought but a standalone asset, as confirmed by its award. It won the “Most Beautiful Garden of Balaton” prize. It hosts forty varieties of English roses and numerous other plant species, equipped with an automatic irrigation system and drip watering, so it requires no weekly gardening. The current gardener and cleaner are open to continuing with the new owner, ensuring the house is handed over in well-maintained condition with ongoing support. This is especially important for those using the property as a holiday home or rental.

MATERIALS AND TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Three features set this house apart from similar-aged holiday homes on Lake Balaton. First, the 30 cm thermal insulation reduces heating costs in winter and keeps the house cool in summer. Second, independent gas boilers and electric meters on each floor allow for separate operation or rental of any level. Third, the interior designer’s influence is evident in the choice of materials, particularly the Italian kitchen with Miele appliances.

ABOUT THE AREA
Alsóörs is located on the northern shore of Lake Balaton, between Balatonalmádi and Balatonfüred, in the Balatonfüred-Csopak wine region. It is lively in summer and quiet in winter; the hillside area is away from the waterfront traffic yet still offers water views. The village has a sailing marina and a beach; the center features the Törökház, one of Hungary’s oldest folk baroque houses. Balatonfüred and Balatonalmádi are a few minutes by car, with Csopak and Paloznak wineries nearby. Veszprém, Europe’s Cultural Capital in 2023, is a short drive away. Budapest is accessible via the M7 and main road 71, and the village has its own train station on the Budapest-Tapolca line.

WHY THIS HOUSE IS RARE
On the northern shore, hillside location, southern orientation, and panoramic views from every floor are individually rare. This house combines all these with a 2014 structure featuring modern insulation, a corner plot with three parking spaces, independent mechanical systems for each floor, interior designer-chosen materials, and an award-winning garden. This combination creates its value, not any single element alone. Before viewing, we send floor plans and detailed technical descriptions so the visit can focus on key points.
