A Brno family house to shape your way175 m², garage, Kohoutovice

A three-storey brick row house from 1978 on Nedbalova street, Brno-Kohoutovice. The ground floor holds the kitchen and a 33 m² (355 sq ft) living room with a panoramic window opening onto a 24 m² (258 sq ft) paved terrace. Upstairs: four bedrooms and a bathroom. The basement is a second living zone of its own — a 17 m² (183 sq ft) room with a garden-facing window, a separate bathroom with WC, storage and direct access to the garden. Neighbours along the street have turned the same space into self-contained suites; the staircase from the terrace is a proven concept. Add a garage and a mature, gently sloping garden of 132 m² (1,421 sq ft).

Let's be straight: the house needs renovation. Here is why that works in your favour — the expensive invisible work is largely done. Windows were replaced, the electrical wiring is new copper throughout. What remains is the interior, currently in its authentic 1970s Czechoslovak state: wood panelling, a blue retro kitchen, patterned tiles. You can keep the character, or start from a clean slate and design every room your way — no developer beige included. The visualisations in the gallery show what the rooms can become, basement music studio included.

Kohoutovice is Brno's green district: about 12,000 residents and half the cadastre covered by forest. Nedbalova is a quiet street where most owners are long-time residents — people know each other and help each other, which is not something a new development can offer. Daily life fits into 500 metres (1,640 ft): primary school at 470 m (1,540 ft), bus stop at 307 m (1,010 ft), pharmacy and GP at 365 m (1,200 ft), a corner shop and a bistro along the way. The Holedná game preserve (327 hectares / 808 acres, free-roaming deer and mouflons) starts five minutes away on foot; the Kohoutovice aquapark is four minutes by car.

For international buyers the maths is simple: 11 minutes by car to Brno Technology Park, about 6 minutes to the Bohunice university campus and hospital, around 20 minutes to the International School of Brno, direct city buses into the centre. Brno runs on tech and research, and its international community keeps growing — but family houses inside the city limits come up rarely. Most end up commuting from satellite villages. This one lets you live almost in a forest and still make the morning stand-up.
