Short Summary

My name is Miklos Nagy. I was born in Hungary but live in Ontario, Canada over the past 27 years. I have been working in the banking and financial advisory business over the entire time. My family's and my dream is to offer truly relaxing private and luxurious fractional ownership properties in the heart of the world historical wine regions. 

To start this project my family bought an approximately 2 acres of land in the historic Hungarian "Badacsony" wine region on the South-Western slope of "Oreg Hegy"  ("Old Hill or Mountain") beside Lake Balaton in Hungary. Wine production goes back almost 2,000 years to Roman times on this hill. In the nearby town of Badacsony the Roman military road between Rome and Aquincum in the Roman province of Pannonia is still visible and used today. The typical wine in this region is Pinot Gris and is considered one of the best and famous wine of Hungary. Lake Balaton is the largest lake in Central Europe and has been a major tourist attraction for centuries. Badacsony and its environ belongs to the sub-Mediterranean climate with hot and dry summers, long and warm springs and falls and with a mild winter.

The property is located in the town of Badacsonyors and has a panoramic view of Lake Balaton and the volcanically formed Badacsony Mountain with significant quality wine production. It was planted with vines last year and will produce approximately 7,000 litres of wine starting in 2014.

Badacsonyors is conveniently located in the heart of Europe. The distance from it to Budapest is appr. 170km to Vienna appr. 210km to Zagreb apr. 220km to Venice apr. 580 km. just to give a couple of examples. It is an ideal spot to enjoy and explore Europe from. It is also only 35 km away from Heviz the world second largest natural hot spring lake which is a very busy major historic Spa town in Europe.

My family and I plan to develop this property first and use it as a showcase before embarking on buying and developing similar properties situated in historic wine regions in France and Italy and later possibly in Argentina. After the completion of developments of these properties we will sell them as fractional ownership units to high net-worth individuals who are interested spending, enjoying and savouring extended period of times each year in selected locations in historical wine regions in the world. These properties will be developed so that the fractional owners will relax in luxurious vineyard properties in the midst of historic wine regions close to a lake or the Mediterrenean Sea with sandy beaches, excellent hiking opportunities, great cuisine and restaurants and close to many attractions.

We have the plan for the house done by a well-known architect. The house on the property will be built from stone and will have three levels. The wine cellar will have an area of appr. 124 m2, the main floor area will have 85 m2 and the finished loft will have 54 m2. The architectural plan is attached.

The contribution you provide will help us to get this business going which is my family's dream for some time.

What We Need & What You Get

To finish our project we need to build a luxurious house on the property and furnish it accordingly. This will approximately cost $180,000. The remaining $40,000 we need for a possible cost increase and maintenance costs for the next 10 years while we are offering the perks for our contributors.

For the next 10 years the property will not be rented out to anyone else then to contributors as perks. This project will give us a great showcase so we can  embark on buying and developing other similar projects in France and Italy and possibly other countries. The perks we offer are of great value if you are looking for a unique, wine country experience, luxurious accommodation for a very reasonable price for the next 10 years.

Without your help we can not finish this great project!

We thank you in advance of all your contributions and hope that we will see you at the winery in Hungary in the coming years.

The Impact

The concept my family and I want to implement is to provide people with luxurious accommodation in historical wine regions in Europe and possibly in other parts of the world with easy access to beaches and major attractions within a 600 km radius from the property.

This type of retreats will provide true enjoyment of nature, wine and wine-making, beaches, great cuisine and historical sightseeing opportunities within a short driving distance.
