House Roč, Buzet, 160m2

ISTRA - ROČ In Ročko Polje, a small Istrian village located between the ancient Glagolitic centers of the towns of Roč and Hum, are ‘hidden’ these charming holiday homes with a beautiful garden and two interconnected pools, just a half-hour drive to the sea and Opatija. When the current owner bought the old, dilapidated, and abandoned family estate at the beginning of the 1990s, built probably at the end of the 18th century, he had a clear vision of what he wanted to do with it. He would restore it in a way that fully respects its history and preserves the spirit of the past, while at the same time making it functional and comfortable for everyday life and relaxation. Two separate buildings, covering approximately 160 square meters, have been tastefully decorated. The rustic interiors, which seem to have been "frozen" somewhere a hundred years ago, harmoniously and subtly complement the more modernly decorated areas. The property extends over 1177 square meters, and the meticulously arranged garden, planted with various Mediterranean herbs, stands out. Iris predominates, and the lush vegetation blends seamlessly with the natural stone pool, which has been transformed into a pond covered with water lilies. In between the residential buildings, in the middle of the garden, there is a circular pool with a diameter of seven meters and a depth of 1.5 meters, as well as a smaller jacuzzi pool with a diameter of 3.5 meters. Everything was built according to feng shui principles, so the entire space should be harmonious, with a balanced energy that positively impacts the residents. Tall herbs, especially cypress trees, shield the view from the road to the interior of the estate. The residential part consists of two small stone houses, two fully equipped units, and the most interesting and attractive apartment, where the essence of the Istrian country house has been fully preserved, with a hearth that serves as an important aesthetic detail. Against the stone walls, old furniture rests – simple, understated, and carefully restored cabinets, tables, and chairs. Attention was paid to every detail in the decoration and furnishing, from the dishes and the coal iron to the trunks hidden under lace decorations. Upstairs, a bedroom is situated under wooden beams, entirely authentic in every imperfect curve. Together, these two houses make up a single property capable of accommodating five people. The property has been used for tourism and is categorized. Ročko Polje is in an excellent location - Rijeka, Pula, Rovinj, and Poreč are about forty minutes away by car, Buzet is a ten-minute drive, and the nature in this part of the Istrian hinterland is truly beautiful. Opatija is just 25 kilometers away. There is the option to purchase only the stone houses with a 508 square meter yard and the possibility of building a pool, as well as the option to purchase a construction land of 669 square meters, on which the pools and a covered spot for one vehicle have been built. The price for the complete estate with two houses and pools is 320,000 euros, for the houses with the land is 280,000 euros, and for the land with the pools, the price is 120,000 euros. The property has been used for tourism, with an occupancy rate of 4-5 months. Clear ownership, one owner. For more information and a viewing, please call +385/ 99/. ID CODE: 15413 ... show all
