Just 2.5 km from the Adriatic Sea and the centre of Umag, this newly built semi-detached villa combines contemporary Mediterranean architecture, generous indoor and outdoor living spaces, high-quality construction and an attractive location on the Istrian coast. Set on a 500 m² landscaped plot, the property offers 157 m² of net living space, a heated 28 m² infinity swimming pool and a carefully designed garden, making it suitable both as a private family residence and as a Croatia holiday home or luxury tourist rental investment.
The villa has been designed to create a seamless connection between the architecture, surrounding landscape and outdoor living areas. Its modern lines, carefully chosen natural tones and extensive glazed surfaces allow the property to blend naturally into the Istrian environment while providing bright, open and highly functional interiors.
The accommodation is distributed over two floors and follows a practical open-plan concept. Large windows and glass walls bring abundant natural light into the living spaces, while a restrained neutral colour palette, contemporary furnishings and carefully selected materials create an elegant yet comfortable residential atmosphere.
The ground floor features a spacious open-plan living area incorporating the living room, kitchen and dining area, with direct access to the covered outdoor terrace. This level also includes a bedroom with its own private bathroom and a separate guest WC.
The first floor provides three additional bedrooms, each with a private bathroom, together with access to a terrace. With four bedrooms and four private bathrooms in total, the house offers an excellent layout for family living as well as for accommodating holiday guests.
The outdoor area is conceived as a natural extension of the interior living space. The 500 m² plot is fully fenced and landscaped in a Mediterranean style, providing privacy and a pleasant setting for relaxation.
The centrepiece of the garden is the 28 m² heated infinity swimming pool, featuring four-sided overflow technology. Together with the covered terrace and landscaped surroundings, the pool area creates an attractive outdoor living zone particularly suited to the long Istrian summer season.

The town combines a historic Mediterranean character with modern tourist infrastructure. Its waterfront promenades, varied coastline and numerous beaches provide opportunities for swimming, boating and other seaside activities, while the surrounding countryside is characterised by rolling hills, vineyards, olive groves, traditional villages and agritourism estates.
The property's location also makes it convenient for exploring other major destinations on the Istrian peninsula. Poreč is approximately 30 km away, Rovinj around 60 km, and Pula approximately 80 km.
