House Veprinac

Opatija Riviera | Veprinac – Mediterranean residence with panoramic sea view | Exceptional privacy
VILLA MONA MIA More than a view. Feel of home. Private Mediterranean residence above Opatija There are homes that make a strong first impression. And there are places that stay with you long after you leave. Villa Mona Mia belongs to that second group. Hidden among the green slopes of Veprinac, above the elegant Opatija Riviera, this private Mediterranean residence offers what has become a true rarity on the Adriatic today – genuine peace, total privacy and a connection with nature that cannot be built, only experienced. Surrounded by mature Mediterranean greenery, with no immediate neighbours and an open view towards the Kvarner Bay, Villa Mona Mia was created for those who value space more than showing off, and peace more than attention. Here mornings begin with the song of birds among the treetops. Afternoons pass by the pool under the warm Mediterranean sun. Evenings end on the terrace, while the lights of the coast slowly turn on above the sea. This is a home where time naturally slows down. Designed in the spirit of traditional Mediterranean architecture, the villa follows the natural configuration of the terrain, allowing each floor direct contact with the garden, spacious terraces and open views. Instead of dominating the landscape, it harmoniously blends with its surroundings, creating a rare sense of balance between architecture and nature. The original project was drawn up in the early 1990s, while the building permit was issued in 2012. The estate spreads over approximately 1,200 m² of carefully landscaped grounds, while the residence itself offers about 280 m² of living space spread over three floors. The main house is designed for comfortable everyday living, as well as elegant entertaining. It includes spacious living areas, four bedrooms and multiple bathrooms. The former garage has been converted into a fully finished, independent apartment with one bedroom, living room and kitchen, ideal for guests, family members or independent living. During 2022 the property underwent extensive aesthetic and technical refurbishment, with special attention given to preserving the villa’s original character. The bathrooms have been completely renovated. The façade has been refreshed. New interior doors have been installed, and the entire villa is equipped with carefully selected new furniture. The grounds have been horticulturally arranged so that every corner becomes a natural extension of the living space. A new wood‑fired boiler for central heating, a solar system for domestic hot water and a brand‑new pool machine with a modern electrolytic system have been installed. The property also holds an A+ energy certificate, confirming its excellent energy efficiency. Life in Villa Mona Mia does not take place only within its walls. The pool becomes the centre of long summer afternoons. A covered pergola invites relaxed gatherings and open‑air dinners. Quiet garden nooks provide space for reading, contemplation or simply enjoying the silence. Every part of the grounds has been thoughtfully designed so that nature becomes an integral part of everyday life. While offering an exceptional sense of privacy, Villa Mona Mia is only a few minutes’ drive from Opatija, the Ičići marina, beautiful beaches, top‑class restaurants and all amenities needed for comfortable year‑round living. Here privacy does not mean isolation. It means freedom. Villa Mona Mia is not a house defined by square metres. Nor by the number of bedrooms. It is defined by atmosphere. The sound of wind among the treetops. Sunsets over the Kvarner Bay. And that special feeling when you close the door behind you and the rest of the world simply stays outside. ⸻ Highlights • Private residence surrounded by Mediterranean greenery • About 280 m² of living space • Landscaped grounds of approximately 1,198 m² • Main house with four bedrooms • Separate apartment with one bedroom • Pool with new electrolytic system • Covered pergola for dining and outdoor gatherings • Extensively renovated during 2022 • New bathrooms, interior doors, furniture and horticultural landscaping • New wood‑fired boiler for central heating • Solar system for hot water production • Energy certificate A+ • Open view to sea and nature • Complete privacy with no immediate neighbours • Only a few minutes’ drive to Opatija and the Adriatic coast ⸻ Villa Mona Mia Where silence meets the view.
