Description

One of the most beautiful manors of Oltenia, Romano Mansion in Pleșoiu was built between 1920 and 1925 after the plans of Grigore Cerchez. Although erected in the interwar period, the manor has a long and intense history going all the way back to Tudor Vladimirescu’s times and also all the way to Russia where it get its name. The brothers Romanov, because they are the ones that started this story, were seven brothers from Russia that were hired mercenaries in Tudor’s Army. A few of them stayed forever in Oltenia: two of them killed during the Battle from Drăgășani and one of them settling at Pleșoiu where he started a family that over the years will build this magnificent beauty we admire even today. Taken by the communists in 1949, the manor became a students camp, then a farm, then a school, while in the last years of the communist times it was considered to be the “private retreat of Emil Barbulescu, the nephew of Nicolae Ceausescu himself and a very important figure of the Olt county of those times. The manor was given back to the heirs of the Romano family in 1998 and since then it went through some renovations and repairs. The manor is spectacular, with rich decorations as we would expect from a very exuberant neoromanian style of Grigore Cerchez: the high tower with beautiful design, the round smaller tower on the opposite corner, de façade decorations, the monumental pillars marking the main entrance and the tri-lobes arches being only a few of the elements that are really eye-catching. The manor itself, the main building, has a 313 sqm footprint nd a total built area of 429 sqm, while additionally we will find two more buildings that offer usable space: a second home, as old as the manor, with a total built area of 128 sqm and a more recent construction with a total built area of 339 sqm. The gate is a monument in itself, with two high and very imposing towers, that make the entry to the property resemble the access in an old citadel or in a cathedral. The domain is a lot bigger, has a total of 8.57 ha and comprises a lot more elements : a 1 ha pond with fish, a big size pool (more than 400 sqm) , more small annex buildings but also a big one, with more than 300 sqm footprint, that can be transformed at will by its future owners. With such a rich history that it can become a screenplay for an adventure movie, with an unmatched architectural beauty and with such a large domain, the Romano Mansion is a valuable asset that can be transformed in a beautiful hotel, an events center or a clinic. However it can also be used as it once was, as the main residence with a lot of character, with an important historical and architectural value.
