About 20 years ago my wife parents bought a house in Elena region same condition and we passed the same long way of renovation as you.For me as leaving in Varna was very inspiring.
The price of materials have gone up so much recently here in Bulgaria ... its just cheaper to buy fully renovated houses now with how much these kind of houses cost to renovate
It's all relative, we're a quarter of the way through the complete renovation process to get what we want and, from what we've spent so far, we see houses going for so much more, even 5x to a "fully renovated" house, and they're all the same looking. However, yes, prices have dramatically increased since we've been here I will agree there
Hi Mark .. thinking of moving over to Bulgariain soon ,what was the shipping charges like to move all the stuff you had in the room ? Watched a few of your episodes already but out of sequence. Your an example of what can happen if you really want something
In total we paid around £1500 in total to courier all our personal belongings and tools/ furniture from the UK to BG. Thanks for the positive response 🙂
What was the reason for chopping down the peach tree? I know you mentioned the chimney, but seems like it could have just been trimmed back for that. Was it causing other issues, or did you just prefer a clear space there? For me, it looked like the best thing about this house 😅
Unfortunately it was infected and diseaed also, so the larger branches were causing a risk to falling at any point. It was a lovely aspect of the house when it was in full bloom but it had to go 😔
We'd rather not say the exact village on here but feel free to chat through Facebook or Instagram if you have it. We're based in the Strahitza region. It's actually my dad's but it's a small trailer puller tractor thingy haha but ride on mowers of all sizes are always being advertised on the expat Facebook pages 🙂
Hey, looks like you're an hour and a half away from us, still close but maybe not as close as you originally thought? Haven't really had the chance to explore up that way, so can't really advise
@@MarkandAnisha I'm watching your videos closely 'cos everything you've already done over the past two years is what I'm likely to do soon. Keep 'em coming!
Goodness me, cutting all these beautiful fruit trees which I'm sure are a 100 years old is a crime. You just need to Pollard them, trim them. What a shame! What a crime!😢
Sadly this is one of our poor quality videos, I know it's so frustrating 😔 The whole video didn't record original audio as I walked round so I badly tried to narrate it over the top.
