Of all the houses built around Bucharest, we present a very special one, due to the harmonious way in which combines the comfort - so valued by us, those who are used to living in the city - with the simplicity of natural materials. A happy symbiosis for which owners deserve congratulations.
How many of us would not want to have a house on the shore of the lake, far from the agitation of the city, but not so much - how to keep in touch with civilization, with the nature almost surrounded by an ambience to represent us ? Since they all have materialized in a beautiful villa on the shore of Lake Snagov, the owners feel the need to come to Bucharest just for business. At Snagov they found everything they want: tranquility, beauty, nature and a dream house.
Much of the merit for this arrangement belongs to the owner, Mrs. M.P, who, although he turned to philology, kept the preoccupation for constructions and interior fittings permanently, being a family legacy taken over from his father, who is half of the Transfagarasan. The basic idea from which the ambient was started was the preference for two natural materials: stone and wood, whose joining, made with much refinement, is found at the level of each room.
The overall look combines the elements of a hunting interior with those of a holiday home, a combination that is rarely encountered and, as the owners have told us, the more pleasant the way the villa's destination became the permanent home.
Sprawling on an alley with pavilions a refined garden, a miniature universe dotted with floral, color and stone-inspired arrangements, you reach the villa that captures the eye from far away through symmetrical architecture. The brilliant white, combined with the brick tile, the carved stone base of the terrace, with stones (anticipating the interior design) and the wide glazed openings, offer a hospitable, bright, modern, light home. The immense court is not yet fully arranged, including, among other things, that a garage be built next to the existing one. On the left side of the entrance, a first invitation to relax: a gorgeous terrace, full of refinement, which announces the main themes of the interior.
The furniture is made of wrought iron and glass and is complemented by decorative objects: a stone vessel placed in a forged iron stand, a wooden chandelier and wrought iron, lanterns ... all framed in a square suggested by the poles reunited through dark brown bait beams, engraved on the rounded terrace.
The structure of the villa includes the ground floor, one storey and the attic. On the ground floor there is a living room, kitchen, office and bathroom, upstairs there are three bedrooms and a pavilion, a bathroom and separate entrance with a guest room in the attic. The interior finishes get a special life thanks to the abundant natural lighting made through the openings of the windows with double glazing windows.
Finishes and furniture are made of natural materials, mainly wood and stone, subject to chromatic tones of the same natural range. As a result, the environment created throughout the villa is a unitary, harmonious one, and if there are elements that bring a variation from the general lines, they only make it even more valuable. The pavement is covered with either Spanish-style sandstone or stone-tiled bedrooms that mimic the flooring. The sandstone has been prefigured throughout the house to facilitate easy maintenance and avoid damage as owners own a considerable number of dogs, members with equal family rights. Thermal comfort is provided by the radiators and the connections are masked in the floor. Currently, the heating is on Shell gas, but because of the high price, the owners intend to introduce another heating system.
The living room of 90 square meters is divided into two rooms, living areas and dinning areas, through an arcade with rounded corners and a leveling of the pavement. Ambience inspires at the same time comfort, good taste, warmth and hospitality, bringing together the decorator's preferences - which is dese
