Description

Set in the picturesque village of Bikfalva, in the heart of Transylvania, this remarkable historic manor built in 1750 offers a rare opportunity to own an authentic heritage property.
This estate is deeply rooted in the legacy of the Apor and the Simonyi family — families whose lineage traces back to the medieval Hungarian nobility.
Among its distinguished residents was György Simonyi, hussar captain and later colonel, and his wife, Baroness Anna Apor.
The estate reflects a world of aristocratic life, military prestige, and refined rural culture.
In 1920, renowned architect and writer Károly Kós personally visited the manor, recognizing the unique architectural and cultural value of Bikfalva’s estates.
According to the book written by Berta Zathureczky, the property once featured a landscaped English garden, pergolas, orchards, a pond, and elegant leisure spaces — a true noble retreat.

The estate is set on a 5800 sqm plot and includes a 2500 sqm building and convertible attic, complemented by a beautifully restored vaulted cellar of 110sqm (multi-room).

The ground floor features five rooms and a distinctive Gothic-style private chapel, preserving the original architectural charm.
Ceiling height approx. 3.6 m.
Original timber beam ceilings and thick stone walls.
The attic provides excellent potential for further development into additional rooms or guest accommodation.
The estate’s authentic vaulted brick cellar is an exceptional feature.

The manor has a rich and well-documented history, having belonged to the Simonyi family, with connections to Anna Apor, a noble figure of high rank. The property also inspired the writer Zathureczky Berta in her novel “Simonyi Öbesterné”, centered around Anna and György Simonyi. The book tells a captivating story worthy of a Hollywood film.

It is considered one of the best-documented manor houses in the region, with archival records available at the Székely National Museum, including a detailed inventory of the estate.
