Just outside of Košice, Slovakia's second city, stands Sokolany Manor, built in 1740. Now a thriving hospitality business, it blends the splendor of an aristocratic residence with a modern use with great income and financial potential.

Its original 18th century style has survived to the present day. The sprawling property is entered via a private drive leading up to the manor with double wings that were added in 1999 as part of its reconstruction. The ground floor features a reception hall leading to a kitchen and a phenomenal oval ballroom with access to the terrace. On the left is a lobby with a fireplace and a spacious social lounge. The right wing consists of a garage, and the left a caretaker's apartment. On upper floor is a central dance hall and five rooms, with three additional rooms above the left wing.

A majestic 300-year-old linden tree beautifies the grounds, where a park with automatic irrigation, castle-style paving, two gazebos, and spaces for outdoor events have been established. The manor is kept secure by a CCTV system, and it's fully air-conditioned, with underfloor heating and radiators that heat it to perfection in the cold season. There is also a partial basement.

As the property is adapted to year-round use and already has a profitable accommodation operation, it's a once-in-lifetime investment opportunity.
