This beautiful captain house is located in the historic center of Orebic, a picturesque coastal town on the Peljesac peninsula, right next to the main tourist promenade and the coast and the beachline, only 5 meters from the sea.
It is a centuries-old traditional stone house with a living area of 150 m2, whose architecture has preserved all the best features of traditional Mediterranean construction.
The house consists of ground floor, first and second floor.
The ground floor has a living room, bathroom and storage. The living room opens onto a courtyard leading to the kitchen. The kitchen is very nicely decorated. This part of the house was once a space for boats and fishing tackle, in the local dialect “orsan”, so the room is dominated by a beautiful old stone barrel vault (volat), in the Dalmatian architectural style known as “buta”. From the courtyard stairs lead to the terrace with a beautiful view of the Korcula-Peljesac channel, the island of Korcula, the Korcula archipelago and the open sea.
Stairs from the living room lead to the first floor where there are hallway, two bedrooms and a bathroom.
On the second floor are two more bedrooms and a bathroom.
In the front yard there is a storage room (pantry), and on the outside high fenced stone walls ensure complete privacy of the building.
Parking spaces are nearby. The house was completely renovated in 2007, completely new electricity and water installations were made and a filter was installed on all water inlets in the house to prevent the accumulation of limescale (the central unit of the treatment system is located in the yard in front of the orsan). Underfloor heating is installed on the ground floor and in all bathrooms.
Rooms are air conditioned (cooling and heating system). An additional insulation coating protects the house from moisture in winter, and all windows in the house have double glazing, which is additional insulation. Internet connections are made in each room. During the renovation of the building, connections were made for the future potential connection to the sewerage network.
During the renovation, great care was taken to keep the house antique, traditional look, which in combination with modern details, gives the house not only exceptional functionality but also a special aesthetic moment that preserves the spirit of times and testifies to the rich history and specific beauty of this region.
