Agricultural land 18,889 m², Novo Selo na Braču, peaceful surroundings
In the northeastern part of the island of Brač, in the immediate vicinity of the village of Novo Selo, a spacious agricultural plot with a total area of 18,889 m² is available for purchase. The plot is set in a peaceful, unspoiled natural environment, on flat terrain with open views of the surrounding hills, greenery, and the sea in the distance, far from the tourist crowds yet still close to the sea and all amenities.
The land is fully fenced and cultivated, levelled by machinery, with approximately 500 almond trees carefully arranged in a regular grid. The orchard is maintained and organized to allow easy mechanical upkeep, and the orderly planting reflects a planned approach to cultivation and serious investment. The fenced perimeter itself provides additional security, protection, and a sense of integrity, which is of particular value for larger agricultural areas.
Access to the plot is provided by a wide, officially registered concrete road, allowing easy arrival by passenger car and light commercial vehicles. Infrastructure in this area is developing in line with the needs of the local population and agricultural activity, while the size and configuration of the plot allow for various ways of organizing the space.
Self-sufficient solutions are also possible, such as:
- solar panels
- water tanks
- irrigation systems
Such solutions are becoming an increasingly common choice on the island, especially among those seeking energy independence and a sustainable lifestyle.
Almond cultivation on Brač offers exceptional agroecological advantages, as almonds tolerate drought very well, do not require intensive irrigation, and are perfectly suited to the island’s soil and climate. In addition to being a long-lasting and resilient crop, almonds also have strong market potential due to their wide application in the food, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical industries. Growing demand for locally produced, high-quality, and naturally grown almonds creates opportunities for serious agricultural entrepreneurship, and with additional investment it is also possible to develop in-house processing or a branded product.
According to the current spatial plan of Općine Selca, for agricultural land with an area between 1 and 3 hectares, provided that at least 70% of the area is planted with permanent crops and that the land is located more than 1,000 m from the coast, the construction of individual agricultural buildings serving agricultural activity is permitted.
- Permitted construction: a single-storey building of up to 200 m² gross area
- Additional option: a fully underground basement of up to 400 m²
- Minimum distance from the edge of the plot: 20 meters
- Purpose of the buildings: storage of equipment, processing and storage of products, as well as other related uses
It is important to note that any construction requires additional verification of the specific conditions in accordance with the spatial planning documentation and the competent authorities.
This plot is not just a piece of land, but a foundation for creating a sustainable, authentic story on an island that is increasingly becoming a desirable place to live, work, and reconnect with nature. Whether the plan is to continue cultivation, establish a family farm, develop an ecological project, or simply invest in long-term value, this property offers exceptional potential in one of the most stable and attractive parts of the Croatian coast.
