Whispers of Timeless Elegance: The Swiss Manor Awaits”
A Unique European Estate at the Foot of the Karkonosze Mountains – An Exceptional Offer for Connoisseurs of Luxury and History



This remarkable residence, built in 1642, is one of the few remaining Przysłupowy (Upper Lusatian) houses, a unique architectural style distinct from half-timbered houses. This type of construction, typical of regions like Saxon Switzerland, the Karkonosze Mountains, and the Czech Republic, is a rare architectural gem. Currently, only about 200 of these houses remain in Poland, with most in ruins and only a few preserved from the 18th and 19th centuries. The oldest Przysłupowy building is located in Giebułtów in Lower Silesia, dating back to 1509, but it is also in a state of ruin. Across Europe, approximately 17,000 such buildings exist, with many in poor condition or complete ruins.


Unmatched Location

Located in a picturesque area at the foot of the Karkonosze Mountains, the estate offers direct access to mountain trails and is close to renowned resorts such as Szklarska Poręba. The surroundings provide excellent cycling and walking paths, as well as numerous castles and palaces. Historically, when this region was part of Germany, it was one of the wealthiest, and today it is well-connected with infrastructure, providing easy access to Germany and the Czech Republic.



Exceptional Plot

The estate is surrounded by natural landscapes – a private forest, meadows, orchard, and a mountain stream flowing through the property with a waterfall and picturesque cascades, enhancing its charm and seclusion. The garden, filled with well-maintained plants, allows for relaxation amidst nature.


This offer represents a true gem on the real estate market – one of a kind, rich in history and character, unlike anything else available. We invite you to contact us to arrange a viewing of this exceptional property.
