Property description
Villa, Višnjan, 290 m², land 1.800 m²
Višnjan is a picturesque and vibrant town in western Istria, known for its natural beauty, rich history, and peaceful surroundings. Set on a gentle hill 244 meters above sea level, Višnjan is surrounded by meadows, cultivated fields, and forests of honey oak and hornbeam. The municipality encompasses 56 settlements and lies between the Mirna River to the north and the Lim Channel to the south. Today, Višnjan is most famous for its renowned observatory, which ranks among the twelve most productive in the world for asteroid discoveries.
Just outside the village, in a quiet and green setting, stands a beautiful Istrian villa that offers complete privacy and an escape from the fast-paced lifestyle. Surrounded by untouched nature, this property also comes with a successful and well-reviewed vacation rental business already in operation, making it a fantastic investment opportunity.
The villa spans 290 square meters of net living space and sits on a fully fenced plot of 1,800 square meters. The layout includes both a ground floor and an upper level. On the ground floor, you’ll find two bedrooms—each with its own en-suite bathroom—a guest toilet, a fully equipped kitchen with a pantry, and a spacious living and dining area with a fireplace. From the living room, large doors open directly onto the outdoor terrace and pergola, offering a perfect summer lounge area next to the 50-square-meter swimming pool and sunbathing deck.
Upstairs, there are three more bedrooms, all with private bathrooms. One of the rooms has access to a large terrace with views over the surrounding landscape, while another features a smaller private balcony.
The villa also includes a variety of leisure amenities such as a sauna, indoor jacuzzi, table football, billiards, and a barbecue area, ensuring entertainment and relaxation throughout the year.
The jacuzzi is housed in a separate auxiliary building, which also contains an additional toilet and utility room. In the garden, there is even a traditional Istrian kažun—a small, stone-built structure typical of the region. Currently used as a bicycle storage area, it can easily be transformed into an additional wellness space such as a sauna or luxury jacuzzi room.
This villa offers a rare blend of rural tranquility, natural surroundings, and modern comfort. It is ideal for those seeking a private retreat with a touch of luxury, as well as for buyers looking to continue an established rental business in one of Istria’s most charming and serene areas.
