More Than Just a Villa Apartment – A Unique Buda Home with Private Garden, Garage, and Expansion Potential

Experience the charm of a century-old villa combined with the comfort of a renovated Buda home and special spaces full of possibilities.

Located on Gyöngyvirág Street 1, one of the greenest streets in Hűvösvölgy, we offer for sale a unique apartment on the raised ground floor of a villa building over 100 years old.

According to the property deed, the apartment is 61 m², but in reality, it measures about 66 m². It features 2 and a half rooms and two entrances, complemented by additional spaces and opportunities that elevate the property to a whole new level.

The apartment was renovated 5–6 years ago, so the current owner does not have to start with a fixer-upper. Along with two full rooms and a half room, there is an entrance hall, kitchen, two bathrooms, and a closed, glazed balcony of approximately 5 m², making everyday living comfortable.

Heating is provided by a gas boiler and radiators, the apartment is air-conditioned, and electric shutters on the windows ensure comfort and shade.

The real uniqueness is not just inside the apartment
The property includes a roughly 29 m² half-basement level that once served as a staff apartment but is currently in need of renovation.

This space alone can be valuable as storage, a hobby or workspace, or guest area. With proper technical and legal arrangements, it can be connected to the apartment above, increasing the usable floor area to nearly 90 m².

This is an exciting opportunity for those planning long-term and seeking a home adaptable to their changing needs rather than a fixed floor plan.

Garage, Parking Spot, and a Private Garden Oasis
The apartment comes with a garage suitable for one car and an additional parking spot for a second vehicle.

Perhaps even more special is the large, privately used garden area. Having a private garden is a rare feature in a Buda villa apartment, offering extra living space: perfect for morning coffee, family activities, relaxation, gardening, or simply enjoying a personal green retreat alongside city life.

The garden includes an approximately 20 m² gazebo, which has seen better days but with some imagination and effort, it can become one of the garden’s most exciting features.

It can be transformed into a conservatory, summer kitchen, studio, workshop, hobby room, or even a ping pong room. The function is not determined by a preset floor plan but by the new owner’s lifestyle and creativity.

This property is therefore much more than just an apartment.

A home, a separate half-basement level, a garage, a parking spot for a second car, a huge private garden, and a unique gazebo – all within the world of a century-old Buda villa.

The Villa – Where Past Meets Present
Gyöngyvirág Street is one of the older villa-lined, green residential streets in Hűvösvölgy, offering a lifestyle quite different from bustling Budapest.

The character of this over 100-year-old villa building is shaped by the unique atmosphere of old Buda villas, not the impersonality of modern apartment blocks: a smaller community, green surroundings, and a distinctiveness rooted in the building’s history.

Here, you’re not just buying square meters, but embracing a Buda lifestyle that is increasingly rare today.

The Neighborhood – The Greener Side of Hűvösvölgy
One of Gyöngyvirág Street’s greatest assets is its proximity to nature. At the street’s end, forested areas, hiking trails, and cycling routes await those who want to escape into nature within minutes from their urban home.

At the same time, you don’t have to give up city conveniences.

Nearby, the Hűvösvölgyi Service Center offers numerous everyday services and shopping options: including grocery and organic stores, drugstores, bakeries, post office, government office, cafés, restaurants, and various other services.

Daily shopping, errands, or a quick coffee are all just minutes away, while stepping outside your home immerses you in the calm of Buda’s green belt.

Transport – Buda Living Without Choosing Between Nature and City
Hűvösvölgy boasts excellent transport connections. From a nearby hub, several bus lines and trams 56, 56A, 59B, and 61 provide multiple routes to Buda districts and downtown Budapest.

This location is especially attractive for those who want to live in a green, peaceful environment without losing connection to Budapest.

Who Is This Home For?

This property is ideal for anyone looking for more than a traditional apartment.

It suits families valuing diverse living spaces, a private garden, and future expansion possibilities.

It’s exciting for couples who want a home plus a workspace, studio, hobby room, or guest area.

It’s particularly interesting for multigenerational living, as the 29 m² separate level can provide additional living space with appropriate conversion and conditions met.

It’s also a great choice for anyone who simply wants to live in a characterful Buda villa with a garage, second parking space, a huge private garden, and creatively usable extra spaces.
