Description
From the very beginning, it was a home for extraordinary people. It was built in 1904, designed by Karol Stryjeński. The villa combined the Zakopane style with modern architectural solutions for its time. Among those who visited were Witkacy, Julian Tuwim, Jan Kasprowicz, Leopold Staff, Maria Pawlikowska-Jasnorzewska, and Michał Choromański. In 1987, our mother – Ewa Harasimowicz, a grandmaster of bridge, bought the house. She lived there with her partner Marcin Leśniewski, also a bridge grandmaster, for nearly 40 years. The villa once again became a meeting place for exceptional people from the world of culture, art, and sports. To this day, we remember the New Year's Eve we spent here with Agnieszka Osiecka. Now we are giving the villa a new life and inviting guests who want to feel the atmosphere of old Zakopane. Located high above the city, it offers 140 meters of privacy, a stunning view of the Tatra Mountains, and is just a short walk from the center. You may love bridge or poetry, but you don't have to. We, however, love hosting guests, suggesting lesser-known gems in the area, and helping organize guided tours. Come by, we are waiting on the trail to Gubałówka.
