About the property
“Sire, milady, welcome to your new residence.”
That is how the video tour of this house begins. Something out of Bridgerton? Judge for yourself.
A detached family house in Babice nad Svitavou, approved for occupancy around 1940, with 244 m² of floor area including a 74 m² cellar, on a 1,993 m² plot.
The ground floor has an entrance hall, three rooms, a kitchen, a pantry, a bathroom and a WC. Upstairs there are four rooms, a walk-in closet, a storeroom and a WC. The house has a full basement — a vaulted cellar, a laundry room and storage and utility spaces. Above the first floor, a spacious attic across the entire footprint.
Heating is provided by a Stiebel heat pump; the original solid-fuel boiler has been left in the basement. Windows are uPVC with insulating double glazing. The house is connected to the municipal water and sewer mains, and a rainwater tank on the plot is plumbed into the house. The property is in need of partial renovation.
The house comes with a detached garage with an automatic door, a woodshed and a garden shed. The garden is mature, fenced and gives you privacy.
The village lies on the edge of the Moravian Karst; forest and caves are close by. There is a primary school and a nursery, a GP, a restaurant with excellent food and a football club. Bus connection to Brno.
The house is in a protected landscape area, completely cleared, free of liens and free of any restrictions on the ownership title. I conduct the viewings personally. We will arrange mortgage financing.

Buying this house as a foreign national
There is no restriction on foreign nationals buying property in the Czech Republic — EU and non-EU alike, as individuals or through a company. What follows is what actually matters for this particular house.
Protected landscape area
The house stands in the Moravian Karst protected landscape area (CHKO). Living in it and renovating the interior is unaffected; changes to the exterior, the footprint or new structures on the plot go through the CHKO administration. Worth knowing before you plan an extension — it is a process, not a prohibition.
Clean title
The property is free of liens, easements limiting the owner and any restriction on the ownership title, and the house is completely cleared. The title deed and the 2024 building survey are available for inspection before you sign anything.
Mortgage financing
Czech banks lend to foreign nationals, with the terms depending on residency and where your income comes from. We work with mortgage brokers who handle non-resident applications and can tell you early on what is realistic.
How the purchase runs
Reservation agreement, then a purchase contract with the funds held in escrow by a lawyer or a notary, then the transfer of ownership at the Land Registry — around a month once financing is in place. Legal services are included in the price, and I will run the viewing in English.
