More information about the property
Sotheby's Int. Realty Czech Republic offers for sale a unique vacation property in Zákupy near Česká Lípa, originally built in 1698 as a chapel commissioned by the Italian Grand Duke of Tuscany from the Medici family, who lived in the local castle. The chapel passed into private hands in 2015 and underwent extensive renovations to create a private residence.
The front of the house, the former space of the original chapel, has been left as an open plan living area with access to an outdoor terrace overlooking the tree alley leading to the property.
The rear part of the house was rebuilt from the ground up during the reconstruction and now includes, on the ground floor, a kitchen with a pantry and in the private part, a bedroom with its own bathroom and a laundry room. There is also access to a cellar, ideal for storing wine. The kitchen and bedroom each have their own access to the outdoor terrace through French windows.
On the first floor at the rear of the house there is a bedroom, a separate bathroom, a storage room and an open plan study which can be converted into a third bedroom.
There are 3 other smaller buildings on the property that still need to be reconstructed and it would be possible to create a guest house with up to 2 bedrooms, a wine cellar or a spacious sauna. It is also possible to build a garage for up to 3 cars.
