Нора

Nora is a two-story villa with a mansard roof topped by a pointed gable, designed by modernist architect N.P. Kozlov from Saint Petersburg. The building is located at 5 Krasnomayakskaya Street and has served as residential housing with rental units since 1925.

The property was designed by engineer K.L. Subbotin and built by military engineer General Major Y.P. Semenov before 1912 on plot 30b of New Simeiz. It was created during a period when the south coast of Crimea was being developed as a resort destination for wealthy Russians.

The mansion takes its name from a character in Henrik Ibsen's play, showing how literary works shaped Russian design at the turn of the 1900s. This connection to literature is visible in the property's name choice.

The building is easily reached from Krasnomayakskaya Street and maintains its residential status. Since people live there, visitors can only view the exterior and the surrounding grounds.

The property was built from the start as both a private home and a rental property for visitors seeking vacation accommodations. This dual purpose as a residence and guest lodging was typical for properties developed during Simeiz's growth as a Crimean resort.
