Villa in Istria. City - Labin
Discover this exceptional real estate investment opportunity in Istria with this beautiful house with a pool and spacious garden for sale in the Labin area, located just thirteen kilometres from the sea. On the south-eastern coast of the Istrian peninsula, where green hills meet the Adriatic Sea, nature and cultural heritage come together in two charming towns with complementary characters — Labin and Rabac. The picturesque medieval town of Labin rises on a hill three hundred and twenty metres high, just four kilometres from the snow-white pebble beaches of Rabac. Steeped in the rich history and mining heritage that shaped the region, Labin today is a fascinating town of contrasts, perfectly blending old and new, history and modernity, tourism and art.
Located not far from the centre of Labin, this modern property offers an authentic experience of a small Istrian village, providing complete privacy and an escape from city noise while remaining close to the sea and essential urban amenities. In addition to its peaceful micro-location, this property stands out for its high quality of construction, which guarantees long-term satisfaction and comfortable Mediterranean living. The frame house has a timeless architectural design that harmoniously blends with the surrounding settlement and the natural Istrian landscape. It is designed as a single-family residential house, occupying one beautifully designed and well-equipped ground floor with a highly functional layout.
The interior occupies a total area of 152 square metres and consists of an open space combining a modern kitchen, dining room and bright living room with direct access to a covered terrace. The layout also includes three comfortable bedrooms, two bathrooms, a guest toilet and a practical utility room. The property plot has an exceptionally large land area of 3855 square metres. The landscaped garden includes a private pool with a sunbathing area and an auxiliary building serving as a summer kitchen for outdoor dining. Since the entire garden plot is located within the residential construction zone of the settlement, it offers excellent opportunities for additional construction, for example, for building a second country house or extending the existing estate. The excellent location combined with the thoughtful organisation of both the interior and exterior makes this Istrian property an ideal choice for comfortable family living or a highly profitable investment in the luxury tourism rental market.
