Istra, Loborika, family house, 280 m², auxiliary building

A detached family house with a usable area of approximately 240 m² is for sale in Loborica, in a quiet location. It is south-facing, ensuring plenty of natural light throughout the day, and was built in 2005. The house also has an occupancy permit.

The house comprises a ground floor and first floor and is arranged as two completely separate apartments, each with two bedrooms. This layout offers the possibility of family living, a combination of owner-occupation and tourist rental, or use by two families.

• Ground floor: entrance area and hallway, living room, kitchen with dining area, two bedrooms, bathroom, storage room, spacious terrace.
• First floor: entrance area and hallway, two bedrooms, living room, kitchen with dining area, bathroom, storage room, spacious covered terrace.

An internal staircase connects the floors, while the first-floor apartment also has a separate entrance. The ground-floor apartment is functionally laid out, and approximately three years ago the kitchen and part of the living room furniture were renovated. A particular advantage of the first floor is the terrace, which is accessed from the living room and one of the bedrooms.

Both apartments are equipped with air conditioning, while functional wood-burning stoves connected to chimneys provide additional heating.

The property is set on a spacious plot offering ample room for family life, outdoor living, a garden, and further landscaping according to the future owner's wishes. Private parking is also available.

There are two prefabricated structures on the plot, positioned right along the plot boundary: one serves as a garage for a car, while the other is fitted out as a tool shed with a concrete floor.

An additional feature of the property is a separate detached building with a footprint of approximately 45 m², which currently requires renovation and updating, but offers interesting potential for an additional residential or investment use.

• Detached building of approx. 45 m²: kitchen with dining area and living room, separate spacious bedroom, bathroom, preparation for connecting a wood-burning stove to the existing chimney.

As the building is physically separated from the main house and positioned along the plot boundary, with its own access from the yard, it offers a very good level of privacy. It could be attractive for long-term rental, for example to a young couple or an individual, as well as for use as an additional residential unit for family members, without compromising the privacy of those using the main house.

Behind the building there is an additional area of approximately 20 m², currently used as a woodshed and storage space.

The greatest advantage of this house is its versatility. Two functional apartments provide comfortable family living, while the separate building of approximately 45 m² offers additional potential for long-term rental or accommodation for family members. The property is also particularly appealing to investors looking to combine owner-occupation with rental income, without the need for the additional residential unit to be located within the main house.

Loborica is a quiet settlement in the Municipality of Marčana, in a highly practical position in southern Istria. A particular advantage of the location is its proximity to Pula, the airport, and the main transport routes, making it suitable both for everyday living and for tourist or long-term investment.

Loborica is located along the important D66 route, which connects the Pula area with eastern Istria, while access to the Istrian Y is also nearby. Pula Airport is located in the immediate vicinity of the settlement, which further enhances the appeal of the location for owners coming from other parts of Croatia or from abroad.

At the same time, Pula and its amenities are just a short drive away, while good transport connections make it easy to reach Medulin, Fažana, Vodnjan, Rovinj, and other Istrian destinations. Loborica is therefore an excellent choice for those seeking a quieter place to live without being isolated from the city and key transport links.

• Family home: one apartment for the owner, the other for family members.
• Living + rental: the owner uses one apartment, while the other can be used for long-term or tourist rental.
• Two families: two separate apartments allow shared living while maintaining privacy.
• Additional income: the detached building of approx. 45 m² can be renovated and used as an additional residential unit, depending on possibilities and applicable regulations.
• Investment property: the combination of the main house, additional building, garage, storage, and large yard offers multiple possibilities for future use.

This is a property that stands out for its spacious yard, as many as three potential residential units, and excellent connections to Pula and the rest of Istria.
