Edificio Storico Nel Cuore Del Centro Storico DI Nessebar

A historic freehold property in the very heart of Nessebar Old Town, one of the most atmospheric and culturally significant locations on the Bulgarian Black Sea coast. Nessebar Old Town occupies a fortified island, now linked to the mainland by a road bridge, preserving the feeling of a self-contained historic enclave suspended between land and sea. Set within the UNESCO World Heritage area, the residence enjoys an exceptional position among cobbled streets, medieval churches, ancient ruins and traditional timber-and-stone architecture, in a setting shaped by more than three thousand years of history. From the property, views open towards the sea, the old harbour, the ancient amphitheatre and the Church of St Stephen, creating a rare combination of privacy, heritage and visual identity.

The building extends to approximately 1,264 sqm and is arranged as an entire stand-alone property on its own land. Originally designed for hospitality use, it is currently undergoing conversion into a residential asset. The first, second and third floors are presently laid out as sleeping accommodation, with a total of 16 en-suite rooms. The approved residential concept envisages the creation of 10 apartments; however, the internal layout remains flexible and can be adapted to the vision of a future owner. The property could therefore become a boutique residential investment, a collection of private apartments, or an exceptional single-family residence occupying the entire building.

The ground floor includes two independent commercial units, currently arranged as a restaurant and a jewellery shop, generating a significant rental income and adding immediate value to the asset. The basement level, in addition to the restaurant kitchens, offers dedicated space suitable for a private spa and wellness area.

Externally, the private courtyard provides further potential. Depending on the preferred use of the property, it may be arranged to accommodate two parking spaces, a rare advantage in the Old Town, or transformed into an intimate leisure area with a heated swimming pool.

Combining scale, architectural character, income potential and residential flexibility, this is a unique opportunity to acquire a landmark property in one of the most distinctive historic settings on the Black Sea. Its location, views and full-building ownership make it particularly suitable for a buyer seeking a prestigious private residence or a high-quality residential conversion in the heart of ancient Nessebar.

The property is located just steps from Nessebar’s new marina, offering a convenient berth for a yacht or private boat and an ideal starting point from which to explore the Black Sea coastline. Its central position within Nessebar Old Town makes it perfect for discovering the town’s monuments, museums and ancient cobbled streets, while enjoying its traditional restaurants, artisan shops and the small beaches of the island.

Alternatively, the renowned beaches of Sveti Vlas, with their stylish beach clubs, vibrant atmosphere and lively nightlife, are only a 10-minute drive away. The new town of Nessebar provides all essential services, while Burgas, with its international airport, shopping centres and wide range of amenities, can be reached in approximately 30 minutes.
