About this property
Exquisite country villa for 8 with pool, organic garden and playgrounds
This beautiful villa is located in a small village near Kanfanar. It is situated within a luxury project with 5,600 m² of private land, which includes 4 villas and the opportunity to use an organic garden with seasonal vegetables, outdoor fitness, 2 tennis courts, 2 bowling courts, as well as courts for handball, football, basketball, and volleyball. For an authentic Istrian experience, the property also features 3 boskarins, white-gray Istrian long-horned cattle, a symbol of the region.
Elegant, sophisticated, and superbly located in the heart of a picturesque Istrian village, yet close to sunny beaches and charming seaside resorts, this villa offers luxury accommodation where you can relax and enjoy every moment of your vacation.
The ground floor is fully designed for luxurious living, featuring a beautiful long room divided by arches into the living room and dining room/cooking areas, with French doors that bring in an abundance of warm Istrian light. Exposed stone walls, beamed ceilings, and a lovely open fireplace create a warm and cozy atmosphere, while a mix of modern and vintage furniture and exquisite furnishings ensure high-quality comfort. Three bedrooms are located on the upper floor, while the fourth bedroom opens directly to the private pool, a fantastic place to relax and unwind. The villa also includes a lovely, covered, authentic barbecue with a dining table, offering a wonderful retreat from the sun or the perfect spot for enjoying outdoor meals.
Villa Elena is located in the central part of the Istrian peninsula near the small town of Kanfanar. Enter thelabyrinth of narrow streetsand houses and start your journey through time to the city’sVenetian era. It goes past many great sights, restaurants and cafes. The landmark of the city is the beautiful church ofSt. Eufemija, which towers over the old town. The beaches of the region extend along the almost70 kilometers long Riveria, where both lively beaches for family holidays with children and lonely, romantic bays for couples can be found. Thenightlife in Rovinj offers a varied program of live music, club visits and bars.
Kanfanar and its surroundings are quite famous, not only for their historical and cultural heritage but also for the unique Istrian cuisine, renowned for its delectabletruffle dishes, fresh seafood, exceptional wines, and fragrant olive oils. You’ll find plenty of Konobas (local taverns) nearby, each offering delightful traditional meals. Istria is a unique and magical place that is received by visitors from all over the world, since time immemorial.
For a truly unique adventure, consider joining a truffle hunt in the nearby forests, where you can team up with experienced hunters and their trained dogs to search for the elusive and prized Istrian truffle.
One of the must-visit sites is the Dvigrad Ruins, an eerie and enchanting deserted medieval town just a short drive away. Wander through the ancient gate and you'll discover a maze of abandoned houses, churches, and streets, offering a truly distinctive experience.
For nature lovers, theLim Bay Fjord, known for its pristine blue waters and rich sea life, is perfect for swimming, diving, or simply relaxing with a picnic along the shoreline.
For those interested in exploring more of the region, the cities ofRovinj and Pula are just a short trip away.Rovinj is a charming coastal town known for its picturesque old town, vibrant streets, and stunning sunsets over the Adriatic Sea, and Pula is a historic city famous for its well-preserved Roman architecture, including the remarkable Pula Arena, one of the best-preserved amphitheaters in the world. These cities are famous for their stunning coastlines,and exceptional dining options, making them the perfect destinations for a day trip. Also Brijuni National Park is just 30 minutes away.
