Description

In an exceptional location just about 60 meters from the east coast of Istria, nestled in the picturesque landscape of Duga Luka, a modern villa is emerging, already impressive in its shell construction—not only through its clear, timeless architectural language but especially through the unobstructed view over the Adriatic, which is a defining feature throughout the entire planning of this house. Upon entering the villa, a sense of spaciousness unfolds. The open living area welcomes with large-format window fronts and seamlessly connects the interior with the exterior. This space is also to be complemented by an elegant, open-plan kitchen that harmoniously integrates into the overall picture. An open fireplace and an airy dining area create an inviting atmosphere. At the rear of the floor is a separately usable room, ideal as a guest room or home office. Here, too, generosity, light, and views have been prioritized—elements that consistently shape this house. A delicate staircase leads to the upper floor, which houses the private retreat. Three bedrooms offer the highest level of comfort, each with access to its own balcony. The master bedroom particularly impresses with an open bathroom concept and a direct view of the sea. All rooms are oriented so that the spectacular view always remains an integral part of the living experience. The villa provides further versatile spaces in the basement. A spacious fitness area, utility room, and technical rooms are already planned. Here, too, functionality and light were important considerations in planning—daylight windows allow natural lighting even on this level. The outdoor area is entirely geared towards the Mediterranean lifestyle, which predominantly takes place outdoors—with generous terraces, an infinity pool, a planned summer kitchen, and purposefully designed sightlines that repeatedly direct the view to the sea. Here, architecture and nature merge into a place of stylish retreat. The completed shell construction offers the ideal foundation for individual design ideas. High-quality windows from Austria by the company Josko and Roma CDL blinds have already been installed. Further materials, surfaces, and equipment details can be entirely selected according to personal preferences for all other trades—be it modern-puristic, warm and Mediterranean, or urban-elegant. As there are no further building plots in the residential area, this property is essentially the last new construction in the village. The property is being sold in its current state, not as a turnkey object.

Location: Duga Luka, Istria

On the edge of the charming old town of Labin, amidst a peaceful, nature-connected environment, lies this villa under construction, which, once completed, will serve as both a year-round residence and a holiday home. Anyone arriving here immediately senses the special atmosphere: The vastness of the surrounding landscape, the Mediterranean vegetation, and the light of the Istrian sun combine to create a place where one can breathe deeply and feel at home. Just a few minutes' walk separates you from the turquoise waters of the Adriatic – whether for a morning swim, a leisurely stroll along the coast, or simply to escape everyday life. Although the house is not directly by the sea, the short journey is a pleasant part of the daily quality of life that distinguishes this location. Labin itself delights with its historic old town, narrow streets, small galleries, and a diverse cultural offering. The town is regarded as an artists' haven and scores with a lively yet relaxed lifestyle. Regular markets, exhibitions, and concerts provide variety without losing the authentic character of the region. The coastal town of Rabac is reachable within a few minutes by car and offers beautiful beaches, small coves, and numerous restaurants with sea views. There, one can enjoy relaxing evenings with freshly caught fish, Istrian wine, and the soothing sound of the waves. Culinary-wise, the region is a true highlight. Istria is known for its honest, high-quality cuisine: olive oils, truffles, regional wines, and handmade pasta are not only part of the gastronomy but an expression of a deeply rooted culture of enjoyment. Many konobas offer authentic cuisine at a high level. Active vacationers and nature enthusiasts will also get their money's worth here. Numerous cycling and hiking trails lead through hilly forests, along old railway tracks, or through quiet olive groves. In the surrounding area, there are also small wineries inviting you to taste their fine wines. The proximity to larger cities such as Pula and Opatija, both about an hour away, ensures that urban flair, cultural events, and further infrastructure are never out of reach. International airports in Pula or Rijeka enable easy access. Those seeking a home with character and soul – away from the overcrowded coastal towns, yet close enough to the sea – will find it here.
