Description

In a unique location, directly on the waterfront of the historic old town of Novigrad, this extraordinary stone house presents itself as an architectural jewel with history. Originally built in the 17th century within the old Roman city walls, it has been extensively renovated with the greatest respect for its past and brought up to the latest technical standards. Today, it combines authentic coastal flair, Venetian elegance, and contemporary comfort in an unparalleled manner. On approximately 170 m² of living space, spread over three levels, it offers a unique living environment for lovers of maritime life. Even the entrance area tells a story – the original stone floors from the 17th century create an impressive start. The other rooms are laid out with white wood or resin, creating a bright, Mediterranean atmosphere. Colors like white, yellow, and blue dominate the interior and reflect the light of the nearby sea, which sparkles only about 10 meters away. On the ground floor, there is a spacious reception area that flows seamlessly into the living room and the open kitchen, which promises the highest culinary enjoyment with its professional stainless steel stove with a gas cooktop. From here, as well as from the entrance area, one can access the small courtyard, from which a few steps lead to a highlight of the house: the terrace with breathtaking views over the sea and the Belvedere of Novigrad. A small bathroom with shower and toilet, as well as a cloakroom, complete the layout on this floor. The first floor houses a cozy bedroom, a lovely bathroom with a shower cabin (incl. steam function), and a homely living room that can be used as an additional bedroom if needed and also offers access to the sea-view terrace. On the top floor, directly under the roof, there are two more spacious bedrooms and a bathroom equipped with a bathtub, which also offers a view of the azure sea through a small window. Carefully selected furnishings blend harmoniously into the historical ambiance with its visible wooden ceiling beams and stone details, while the Corten steel fireplace on the ground floor sets a modern accent. The technical equipment is also impressive: A heat pump provides efficient heating and cooling via convectors and radiators in the bathrooms. Hot water is generated by solar panels on the roof – sustainable and energy-saving. The private, covered parking space just 50 meters from the house offers a rare convenience in the historic city center. This exceptional property is more than a house – it is a piece of Istrian history in an exclusive location, created for people who love the genuine, the original, and the sea.

Location: Novigrad, Istria

Novigrad, one of the most charming coastal towns in Istria, uniquely combines Mediterranean lifestyle, Venetian heritage, and modern comfort. The historic center, surrounded by ancient city walls, lies directly by the sea and is considered one of the most beautiful postcard motifs on the west coast. Here, where narrow streets, colorful facades, and the fragrant sea air create a harmonious ensemble, this exceptional property is located – right on the front line to the sea and just a few steps from the lively promenade, the marina, and numerous restaurants. In the immediate vicinity, there are small boutiques, cafés, galleries, and traditional konobas serving regional specialties such as freshly caught fish, Istrian truffles, and excellent wines. The central location within the old town offers the luxury of enjoying all of Novigrad's life on foot – from morning espresso to sunset over the Adriatic. Only about 20 minutes from Poreč and around 45 minutes from Rovinj, Novigrad benefits from its ideal location between culture, sea, and nature. The region also offers a lot for sports enthusiasts: sailing, diving, cycling, or golfing on the nearby 18-hole Kempinski Adriatic Golf Club in Savudrija – here you can enjoy Istria in all its facets. The surrounding area is home to renowned wineries and olive oil producers, inviting you to tastings of their homemade noble drops and culinary experiences. The gentle hills in the hinterland invite you to hikes, bike tours, and excursions to medieval villages like Grožnjan or Motovun, where cultural events are held regularly. The good transport connections make this authentic stone house an ideal starting point for holiday trips and weekend stays: Pula Airport is reachable in about 60 minutes, Trieste is about 90 minutes away, and the international airport of Venice can be reached in just over two hours. Thanks to the good transport connections, Novigrad is suitable both as an exclusive holiday retreat and as a luxurious second home in one of the most desirable regions of the Adriatic. Novigrad represents a quality of life that harmonizes the sea, history, and enjoyment – a place where Mediterranean serenity meets historical beauty. Owning a house in this extraordinary location is a privilege that is now rarely found.
