Real estate in Montenegro is very diverse: here ancient stone houses harmoniously coexist with modern villas in a minimalist style. And if villas have already become something ordinary for our eyes, then stone houses (with history) arouse great interest. We looked into our catalog and made a selection of traditional stone houses in Montenegro.

Stone houses in Montenegro were built very simply: builders used natural materials from the surrounding area and adapted them to the terrain. Thus, in the harsh landscape of Central Montenegro, all houses were built from local stone; the walls were made of roughly hewn stone with a total thickness of 50 to 80 cm. Such thick walls were a good protection from the heat — and air conditioning was completely unnecessary.

Much time has passed since then, but stone houses in Montenegro continue to be built, and foreigners are still interested in buying them. We, in turn, have compiled a selection of such houses in different regions of this beautiful country.

Let’s Sum It Up

When choosing a house or villa in Montenegro, there are several things to consider:

  • Utilities. In some areas, there may be problems with water supply, as in the case of the house in Kunya. Check the availability of all necessary communications.
  • Maintenance costs. In addition to the cost of the property itself, consider property taxes in Montenegro and utility bills. For houses with swimming pools, maintenance costs will be higher.
  • Transport accessibility. The distance to the nearest city, airport, beaches, and shops significantly affects the comfort of living and potential rental attractiveness.
  • Property condition. Some properties require major renovations (like the house in Muo), while others are completely ready for occupancy. 

Therefore, choose the appropriate option, depending on your capabilities and desire to do repairs.
