Description
This modern property blends seamlessly and elegantly into the hillside of the enchanting east coast of Istria and was designed with the clear goal of preserving the unobstructed view of the shimmering Adriatic Sea at every level. Large glass facades and a well-thought-out room orientation ensure that the picturesque view is always present and significantly shapes the character of the house. With approximately 263m² of living space, the property is spread over three floors and combines two separate residential units as well as a functionally designed basement. The concept combines modern clarity with a summery living feeling and offers both communal and private retreats – ideal for large families or friends who enjoy spending time together while valuing privacy. The first residential unit is located on the main floor, which impresses with a generous, open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area. The interior is flooded with light and opens onto a terrace that showcases the stunning sea view. The furnishings are modern, with a friendly atmosphere and deliberately used color accents that give the interior a summery lightness. A guest toilet with a washing machine and a hallway with ample storage space, as well as two bedrooms with elegantly designed en suite bathrooms, complete the space offering. The second, almost identical residential unit is located on the top floor, also with views of the rocky coastline and the deep blue sea, where two bedrooms and a shared stylish bathroom complete the interior of the level. A private balcony also provides this apartment with additional outdoor space with a view and invites you to spend relaxing hours outdoors. The basement houses functional areas of the property. In addition to a utility room, the garage with space for one vehicle and direct house access is available. The communal outdoor area completes the overall picture. A well-maintained garden and a constructed swimming pool create ideal conditions for relaxing days in the open air. Whether sunbathing, swimming, or socializing – the outdoor area invites you to enjoy outdoor life to the fullest.
The property is located in Drenje, a quiet and nature-close place on the east coast of Istria, characterized by its hillside location above the sea and its pristine surroundings. Only about 800 meters as the crow flies separate the property from the Adriatic coast, whose shimmering blue impressively integrates into everyday life. Narrow paths lead in a few minutes to the surrounding bays and small, natural beaches, distinguished by their seclusion and clear water. The location of Drenje offers a perfect balance of retreat and accessibility. The nearest larger town, Labin, can be reached in about 15 minutes by car. The charming old town of Labin with its cobbled streets, historic buildings, and small galleries is a cultural attraction. Here you will also find all the facilities for daily needs - from supermarkets to banks to medical care. Also easily accessible is Rabac, a lively coastal town with a marina, promenade, and a wide range of gastronomic offerings. Rabac is considered one of the most beautiful seaside resorts in Istria and offers a successful complement to the quiet character of Drenje. In the surrounding area, there are numerous typical local taverns and family-run restaurants that celebrate Istrian cuisine with regional specialties and fresh fish. Authentic cuisine meets warm hospitality here - often accompanied by wines from the region. Several wineries in the area invite you to tastings and present the diversity of Istrian grape varieties in an atmospheric setting. The entire east coast of Istria is ideal for excursions, characterized by its natural beauty, hiking trails, mountain bike routes, and the interplay of sea and hills. The Kvarner Bay and the nearby Učka Nature Park area offer additional opportunities for nature experiences and sporting activities. The connection to the international airport in Pula is also comfortable at a distance of around 50 kilometers. In less than an hour's drive, you can reach the terminal, which offers numerous direct connections to many European cities during the summer season - ideal for owners who regularly use the house or want to offer guests an uncomplicated arrival. The location in Drenje combines tranquility, nature, and wide views with a variety of possibilities. It is both a retreat and a starting point - for relaxing hours by the sea as well as for culinary discoveries, sporting excursions, and cultural forays.
