We are offering for sale an extraordinary property with an unmistakable genius loci, originally built in 1927 as a compressor station for the Gabriela mine. Mining operations ceased in 1973, yet traces of its mining past can still be found here today. Nowadays, the building serves as a recreational house and represents a truly unique opportunity to acquire an exceptional retreat in the heart of nature.
The property is situated deep within the forests of the Křivoklátsko Protected Landscape Area. Despite its secluded location, it is strategically placed—just 30 minutes from Prague. Thanks to this, the property can serve not only for private leisure but also as an original glamping site or a retreat for visitors seeking to escape the hustle and bustle of the city.
The house was built to an exceptional standard and, with a sensitive renovation by future owners, has the potential to last for centuries. Massive roof trusses reinforced with steel construction, high-quality masonry, interior stone walls, and oversized foundations guarantee long-term durability and stability of the building.
