The facades are finished in a harmonious combination of plaster and natural stone, carefully integrated into the surrounding landscape. The lower level of each villa is dedicated to relaxation and functional spaces and includes a garage, gym, sauna, wine cellar, and technical/service rooms.
Set in a peaceful, greenery-surrounded residential area, on an elevated location near Poreč, two exclusive villas are positioned on separate plots of 1,500 m² each. The villas share a similar architectural concept and level of execution, with 300 m² of living space distributed over two floors, complemented by private swimming pools, ensuring a high standard of comfort, luxury, and privacy.
The upper level is designed for everyday living and features a spacious open-plan living area with direct access to the terrace, an elegant kitchen and dining area, and four luxurious bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom.
Each villa features a private swimming pool set within a thoughtfully designed outdoor area that offers complete privacy and comfort. Characteristic masonry privacy screens further define the pool area; in addition to providing sun protection, they enhance the sense of intimacy. The surrounding grounds are meticulously landscaped, with particular emphasis placed on architectural lighting design, which accentuates the spatial qualities of the exterior during evening hours.
Stone-clad elements, large decorative stone features within the landscape, and a fire pit for evening gatherings create a distinctive blend of traditional materials and contemporary design.
Thanks to the elevated position of the development, both villas enjoy spectacular sea views, visible from the interiors as well as from the generous terraces. The gentle slope of the terrain adds spatial dynamism, reinforcing the sense of luxury and the strong connection to the natural environment.
Special attention has been devoted to the interior design, characterized by a refined aesthetic and a strong sense of elegance. The seamless integration of indoor and outdoor spaces is achieved through large glass facades, carefully selected materials, and a sophisticated color palette, creating a harmonious and inspiring atmosphere for both living and leisure
