Istrian stone house with Mediterranean charm and unobstructed sea view

Perched on the gently rolling hills of Istria, in the charming village of Bale near Rovinj, this distinctive stone house impressively combines tradition and modernity. With its natural-stone façade, pastel-blue shutters and picturesque setting, it blends seamlessly into the Mediterranean landscape. At first glance, the unobstructed panoramic view over olive groves to the sparkling sea on the horizon is captivating. On the ground floor, a spacious living area unfolds, where cooking, dining and relaxing merge into one open space. Large window surfaces flood the room with light and bring nature into the home. Exposed beams, soft earth tones and tasteful country-house and vintage-style furnishings give the interior an authentic, cozy character. The fireplace provides a special highlight: it not only offers warmth, but also creates an atmospheric ambience that makes convivial evenings a memorable experience. In addition, the ground floor features a welcoming bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, ideal as a guest room. Upstairs, residents will find three further bright bedrooms, each with its own bathroom. High-quality materials, subtle fabrics and warm wooden floors create an atmosphere of comfort and elegance. Particularly noteworthy is the master bedroom with a private balcony, offering sweeping views over the surrounding nature and the sea—an ideal retreat for moments of peace and relaxation. The villa’s outdoor area is an oasis of Mediterranean living. A well-kept garden surrounds the house and provides generous spaces to linger. Covered terraces invite al fresco dining, while an additional window front on one terrace offers protection in wind or cooler temperatures. At the heart is the heated infinity pool, where the interplay of landscape and sea view can be enjoyed to the fullest. In terms of technology, the property is state of the art: an air-source heat pump ensures efficient energy supply, a photovoltaic system provides electricity, and an EV charging station as well as a carport for two vehicles complete the offering. As a special extra, the olive grove in front, measuring over 5,000 m², can be purchased additionally. It guarantees the unobstructed sea view and also offers the charming opportunity to produce your own olive oil. In this way, the property unites Istrian tradition, contemporary living comfort and the beauty of nature into an incomparable place full of charm and quality of life.
