Harmony of Nature and Architecture in Nov Dojran
Peace and Beauty – A Home with a View
Facing the stunning horizon of Dojran Lake, this home is designed as a symphony of nature and architecture. Spanning 180 square meters, it serves as an ideal retreat for families who value the tranquility and beauty of nature. Positioned to make the most of the sunlight throughout the day, the home takes full advantage of its prime location, altitude, and climate, allowing natural light to flood every corner.
The design of the house naturally follows the contours of the land, with two floors offering breathtaking views of the lake. The ground floor extends like a long platform, partially sheltered by the upper floor, creating a welcoming outdoor space that captures the morning sun.

Sustainable and Aesthetic Design
With a strong focus on sustainability, the home is constructed using local materials that reflect the natural beauty of the surroundings while minimizing maintenance needs. The facade, clad in various types of stone, blends harmoniously with the environment. Warm wooden elements, present on the terraces, interior floors, and woodwork, add character and warmth to the home. The interior, featuring neutral tones, provides a serene backdrop, allowing the owners to personalize the space.
Energy efficiency is a key aspect of the design. Large aluminum-framed windows with triple thermal glazing offer excellent insulation and reduced energy consumption. The house maximizes natural light during the day, minimizing the need for artificial lighting. Heating and cooling are managed through photovoltaic panels and heat pumps, with fan coils integrated into the floor, ensuring a comfortable indoor climate year-round with minimal environmental impact.
Bright and Inviting Spaces
At the heart of the family apartment is a spacious living room, where large windows offer a stunning view of Dojran Lake. Natural light fills the space, creating the perfect spot for relaxation and family time, enhanced by a cozy fireplace that adds charm, especially during the colder months. The open kitchen, with a large island serving as a practical workspace, becomes the center for family meals and gatherings.
Just outside the living room is a sunlit terrace that leads to a private pool. The area around the pool is ideal for relaxation and enjoying the natural surroundings, providing a peaceful spot to unwind while admiring the beautiful views. Whether it’s a family gathering or a moment of tranquility, the outdoor space seamlessly extends the indoor comfort, offering a perfect balance between interior and exterior living.
Family Home and Guest Apartments
This carefully designed space combines family privacy with guest comfort. The ground floor is reserved for the main family living area with large, open spaces. On the upper floor, three smaller apartments offer a unique rental experience, attracting tourists seeking both relaxation and adventure, just 5 kilometers from the Greek border.
Each apartment has access to a large terrace, covered with a pergola, making it an ideal spot to enjoy and encouraging guests to unwind and absorb the beauty of the surroundings. With plenty of sunlight and fresh air from the lake, the apartments provide a bright and pleasant atmosphere that enhances the summer experience.
Thoughtful Layout
The layout of the house is carefully designed to allow for a natural flow between spaces. Central stairs connect the two floors, creating easy access between the private family apartment and the guest apartments on the upper floor. This design ensures a balance between functionality and elegance, confirming that every corner of the home is thoughtfully planned for maximum enjoyment and comfort.
