Sanpetru

Sanpetru, Braşov, Romania

Sânpetru, one of the 14 establishments founded by Saxon colonists in 1211 in ?ara Bârsei, was known throughout history as Petersburg, Sant Petru or Mons Sancti Petri. Called by the locals „The Old School”, one of the most important buildings in Sânpetru hosted the Evangelical Saxon School for more than a century. The now private property is undergoing a renovation process in order to receive a new function in the near future: hotel and event center. The two buildings are built in L shape on the edges of a 2500 sqm land that offers plenty of usage options. The location is very fortunate, in the historical area of Sânpetru, in the vicinity of the Evangelical Fortified Church built in 1794 on the foundation of a 13th-century church. The access to and from Bra?ov is facil and the view towards Lempe? Hill nearby ensures a relaxing sight. The main building facing the street, built in the second half of the 19th century, is the former school and bears an important historic value. Its main façade, recently renovated, contains neoclassic elements. The balanced proportions and symmetrical composition embellish it, with the two entrances mirroring each other. The total built surface is 1058 sqm and the four levels are basement, ground floor, first floor and attic. The conversion project implies creating a winery, dining areas and generous rooms with en-suite bathrooms and dressings. The secondary building fully renovated with premium finishings, and is fully furnished and utilated. There are 408 sqm built on two levels. At the groundfloor we have the kitchen and an big events hall. At the first floor we have two apartments that are ready to use. . With a generous land and two renovated buildings, in the immediate vicinity of Bra?ov but offering the fresh air that climbs down from Lempe? at twilight and the picturesque panorama of ?ara Bârsei, the former Saxon School in Sânpetru can shortly become one of the touristic landmarks of the area.
