This property is rather spectacular. It’s a manor house that was built in 1648, has over 800 m2 of indoor space and more than twice that of land. It has the potential for 10 bedrooms, a real tower, and a price of just €80,000.

At that price you can probably guess it’s not a turnkey property, but instead one for which major renovations are required. It’s currently being handled by Think Slovenia, who describe it as follows on their website:

Beautiful manor house with 1896 m2 of land and 833 m2 of indoor space in a lovely location with scope for use as a private residence or for tourist related purposes. The building is historically very interesting with its origins dating back to a monastery in the 13th century.

The Soča Valley is without doubt one of the most beautiful places in Slovenia, with the turquoise waters of the river flowing through the dramatic landscapes of Triglav National Park. The area is full of natural wonders, and one that affords countless opportunities to engage with the great outdoors. Hiking, biking, kayaking, canyoning, paragliding, mountaineering and more, as well as more leisurely pursuits such as photography, painting and simply sitting outside and breathing clean air and soaking in the stunning views.

This week’s property, located in the village of Svino – not far from Kobarid, the home of one of the best restaurants in the world, Hiša Franko, and Bovec, the adventure sports centre – is thus one for those who like to get away from it all. As well as a cosy home, it would make an ideal holiday cottage or rental, with three bedrooms, a garden, and a bargain price of just €65,000, much reduced from the original €130,000 asking price. It’s being handled by Think Slovenia, who are promoting it as follows:

Svino is a small village a short distance from Kobarid and the stunning Soča River. The house itself lies in the centre of the village. Though in good condition, it would benefit from moderate renovation.

This week’s property is a home with options – a three-floor home in the village of Ribno with three apartments, great views and not far from one of the most famous and visited spots in Slovenia, Lake Bled.

While “holiday rental” is perhaps one’s first thought when looking at this arrangement – as each apartment is self-contained and fully-equipped – I have friends with older children and the same kind of property for whom this layout has served as a perfect family home, with enough space and facilities for privacy and independence, while keeping everyone close for communal meals and activities. That said, the house could easily be converted from three apartments to one large house.

Currently on the market for €360,000, the property is being handled by Think Slovenia, who describe it as follows:

Wonderful family home divided into three apartments in an elevated position and views on both sides in the picturesque village of Ribno, just 5 mins drive from Bled. This three-storey house is currently converted into three separate apartments each on its own floor, ideal for short or long term rental.  The apartments are fully equipped and well looked after.

The ground floor apartments consists of a bathroom, kitchen, one bedroom and large living area. Large French doors in the living room lead out onto the large terrace overlooking the mountains, perfect for relaxing on hot summer evenings. The upper floor apartment consists of two bedrooms, bathroom, open plan kitchen with dining and living area and two balconies with stunning views over the village and mountains beyond. The middle floor apartment has one bedroom with kitchen, bathroom, living and dining area. An attractive 500 m2 garden surrounds the house and offers great mountain views. The house has been converted in a way so that if desired it could easily be changed back into a single family residence.

The village of Ribno offers various restaurants / bars and a bakery with an appealing secluded quiet atmosphere whilst being just a 5-minute drive away from the attractions and amenities of Lake Bled. The region gives opportunities for numerous summer and winter activities, from skiing and cross country, hiking, cycling, water sports on Lake Bled and Bohinj, or just relaxing, surrounded by stunning unspoiled alpine scenery. The highway is just 10 minutes’ drive, and with regard to skiing there are three resorts just 30 minutes away, while Ljubljana can be reached in 40 minutes. A great opportunity to purchase a spacious three-apartment house set up to make immediate rental income or as a permanent residence in one of the most sought after locations of Slovenia.

I’m looking for a three-bedroom place to move, and I love this one, but it's more than a little out of my budget. The high price is not because it's in Ljubljana, or on the coast, but rather in Bled, the site of Slovenia’s most iconic view, a place with fantastic holiday potential, and / or a base for an active career, as it’s still within commuting distance of Ljubljana, just 30 minutes by car and the same for Italy and Austria.

Note: the map shows the location of Bled, not the property

With three bedrooms and 1,360 m2 of land, it’s being handled by Slovenia Estates, who describe it as follows:

This is a newly renovated attractive villa in Bled with 3 bedrooms, garden, private driveway and an outbuilding. Located in a nice, open and sunny location with no immediate neighbours, the villa has recently undergone a major renovation.
