This charming, traditional-style cottage in Ukraine offers an idyllic rural lifestyle with mature gardens that produce a variety of fruits and vegetables.

The property boasts 47.3m² of accommodation, including three rooms, a kitchen, corridor, pantry, and veranda. Built from brick and timber, it enjoys lovely views over the gardens and towards a small river that flows nearby.

While liveable, the cottage requires some updates to meet modern standards, which is reflected in the remarkably low price of just $9,900 (including purchase fees).

Currently, there is no internal bathroom or internal plumbing, but the property’s generous plot provides ample scope for extending the existing structure.

The cottage sits on nearly two-thirds of an acre (2,900m²) of land, with a range of outbuildings, including a barn, root cellar, and summer kitchen. Of the land, 1,000m² is classed as privatised and buildable, while the remaining 1,900m² is agricultural.

The gardens are home to mature fruit trees, including cherry, apple, plum, and pear, along with grapevines, currant bushes, and a strawberry patch.

A small river runs along the edge of the garden, enhancing the property’s tranquil, natural setting. As is standard with waterways in Ukraine, there is a small strip of sanitation land between the edge of the river and the boundary of the property. Mains electricity is connected, and internet access is available.

Water is supplied from a well shared with the neighbouring property, and heating is provided by a traditional stove, supplemented by electric heaters. Notably, mains gas is also connected to the property, adding convenience and value.

Located in the village of Velyka Vovnyanka, the property is accessed by an unmade road approximately 300 metres from a tarmac road.

Essential amenities, including a shop, medical centre, local government building, school, kindergarten, and bus stop, are within 500 metres of the cottage. Transport links to Kyiv and nearby towns are excellent, with frequent minibuses connecting the village to the capital, approximately 135 kilometres away.

This property offers a wonderful opportunity to create a cosy countryside retreat with the potential for modernisation and personalisation in a peaceful, riverside setting.
