This beautiful villa overlooking the marina is located in the beautiful historic town of Starigrad and at the same time very quiet and private, just 100 m from the lively center of the village.
The villa has an area of 153 m2 plus 67 m2 of terrace and is located on a total area of 1201 m2. It is spacious and organized on two floors. Built in 1947 with thick stone walls, shutters, wooden and tile floors, the villa was completely renovated by owners from the UK between 2004 and 2007.
The villa is one of the few villas on the island of Hvar with large gardens. In fact, there are two subgroups with a villa on a plot of 608 m2 and a second plot of 593 m2. It can be kept as part of a single property or sold separately, these plots are in front of the villa and used as a garden. This land offers an exceptional opportunity for further development, including a swimming pool. Initial plans for the villa on the site were designed to show what it might look like. There are currently two parking spaces for the villa; the road on which the villa is located is very quiet.
Upstairs, the villa has a large terrace that looks across the marina and the old village. There is a large kitchen, living room, two bedrooms with double beds and a very large bathroom with shower and bathroom. There is a second exterior terrace on the back which can be improved.
The inner and outer stairs connect the upper and lower stairs. In summer on the lower floor, the large living room and dining room remain cool even on the hottest days. There's a big fireplace for winter. Below are two bedrooms with double beds and two bathrooms; one bedroom has its own entrance and terrace. You can create an additional bedroom at the bottom without difficulty, while maintaining a spacious living room. The lower part of the area can be turned into a separate apartment, so that when groups of friends or family use the house, each can have privacy.
Stari Grad, which means “Old Town”, is one of the oldest settlements in the Adriatic. It's a World Heritage site. It has many historic buildings and atmospheric alleys with many fantastic restaurants, bars and coffee shops. Nearby there is a supermarket, a fresh fish market, a grocery market and a bakery.
Marina is beautiful and always busy with local fishing boats and yachts. On both sides opens an impressive new promenade and marina. The quality of the village is reflected in the fact that the 5-star Four Seasons Hotel is being built on its outskirts and two more luxury villas on each side of the harbour entrance, from where the ferry crosses from Split. It is easy to reach the town of Hvar and other villages on the island from Stargrad.
Stargrad has beaches that are within walking distance of the villa and other places where you can swim within walking distance. There are pedestrian roads from the villa through the Mediterranean countryside, planted with grapes, lavender and wild herbs and flowers. Hvar is known as a bicycle island for good reason with easy cycling in villages and in the countryside. There are many marked hiking and cycling routes and all kinds of bikes, boats, kayaks and rental cars to explore the island.
The price of this property and land is 800,000 euros and it will be sold as a unit. The premises, refrigerators (2), washing machine and dishwasher will be sold with the villa, and the owners will keep beautiful furniture and artwork.
The house has been successfully used for rent for many years, generating rental income of around 22,000 euros per year. Owners will be happy to hand over marketing agreements if the new owner wishes to continue the business.
