Surrounded by verdant trees with expansive sky views, this home bathes in the warm glow of the Istrian countryside. Located in the small village of Barat, this is the perfect setting to switch–off and experience the beauty of slow living. From the soothing palette and natural textures to the open–plan design, every element of this villa inspires a wonderful sense of ease and freedom. And whether you’re enjoying a laughter-filled gathering around the table or a quiet moment alone on the balcony, the space is thoughtfully designed to adapt to the mood of the moment. The elevated sense of luxury extends throughout this home – each of the bedrooms has its own private bathroom and offers inspiring views across the countryside.
