At the foot of the Hvar Mountains, between Stari Grad and Jelsa, you will find the village of Vrbanj with a population of about 450 people.
Here you will find an old stone house located on the edge of this quiet, peaceful village - with magnificent sweeping views of the houses below and opposite the island of Brac and the Croatian mainland.
This historic property, some 150 years old, is offered for sale completely restored and renovated to the highest standards. The property includes a large main house, three separate and self-contained cottage apartments, plus a two-level courtyard and patio with swimming pool.
Description of the main house: Optimal sized and carefully restored lava house, which consists of three large floors, each with a living area of 48 m2, with a further floor of attic storage space.
Ground floor: large open plan kitchen, dining and utility room, with downstairs toilet. The wood burning stove is set on a fully functioning chimney and a large staircase leading to the second floor.
Second floor: Spacious, fully air-conditioned open plan living area. Natural wood floors, rotating ceiling fans, a second wood-burning stove and a feature staircase make this space cozy, comfortable and beautiful all year round.
With five shutters on the windows and a door leading outside and down to the terrace and suite, it serves as both a conveniently located hub for friends and visitors, as well as a refuge from the high temperatures during the hottest months. A spiral staircase leads to the third floor.
Third Floor: Calm and spacious space with large windows, air conditioning and plenty of ceiling fans. The third floor consists of a master bedroom, a large bathroom and a private outdoor terrace with panoramic sea views. The bedroom has plenty of space for a queen-size bed and built-in oak wardrobes, while the bathroom has a Jacuzzi-style bathtub and double walk-in shower. The private terrace offers views of the Croatian mainland and the island of Brac, making this a special place to relax.
Fourth floor - attic space: large attic space. Plenty of storage space or the ability to transform the space.
Description of cottages
The property includes three fully furnished and equipped cottages with varying levels of capacity (2 people - 4 people), which have a large patio and private pool. Each cottage is furnished to a very high standard and has its own kitchen and bathroom. The yard is a tranquil, year-round sunny area and is planted with many flowering plants and hanging vines. From here steps lead down to the pool where there are even more beautiful plants.
Note: Three of the cottages are currently designed as separate holiday homes, but two of them could easily be combined with the main house to create a luxurious and very large family home with three or four bedrooms.
The 15m2 swimming pool is a rarity in Vrbanj, where temperatures can reach 30C on a summer day. There is a separate plot of land for private parking and ample space for a small olive grove. There is a place nearby where you can buy pizza and a store which is only 2-3 minutes away. Vrbanj is located 5-6 km from the cities of Jelsa and Stari Grad and 6 km from the main port of Stari Grad, from where ferries run regularly to Split. The town of Hvar is 22 km away.
