Stone house 77 m², Žminj - authentic and renovated

An authentic stone house of 77 m² with a courtyard of 105,60 m² is located in a quiet small village in the surroundings of Žminj, in the heart of Istria. The property is sold in its current condition, in the final stage of works, and represents an excellent basis for a private holiday home, a weekend house, or a house for tourist rental.

The village, with only a few houses, has been gradually developing in recent years into a small oasis for leisure and tourism. The house is surrounded by traditional Istrian architecture and nature and offers a special atmosphere in a small and quiet Istrian village, far enough from the bustle of tourist centers, yet well connected to the rest of Istria.

The house has been completely renovated, and the works began in 2023. From the outset, the project was conceived as a private house for enjoyment, which is why special attention was paid to the quality of workmanship, the preservation of authentic elements, and the choice of materials. The renovation is dominated by Istrian stone, wood, and iron, which create a distinctive Mediterranean ambiance and connect traditional architecture with the functionality of a contemporary space.

What remains is to finish the floors and furnish the interior, while the outdoor area can be further adapted to the wishes of the future owner, including completion of the summer kitchen. This stage of renovation makes it possible to fully adapt the final appearance of the house to personal taste and intended use.

The outdoor area stands out in particular for its traditional organization of the yard, stone walls, and a covered social area. Within the courtyard there is a private cistern, whose upper surface has been used as a terrace, and the system is also connected to irrigation for the rest of the yard. In this way, one of the traditional elements of Istrian houses has been preserved and adapted to modern functionality.

The house has water and electricity connections installed, with the electricity connection already paid for, and a private septic tank has been built for drainage.

This is a property for those who appreciate authentic Istrian style, but want the freedom to complete it according to their own vision.
