Villa Stepančić

Stepančići 8 - 52231 Labin - Općina Labin - Croatia

Sophisticated modern villa in a green oasis, on the east coast of Istria peninsula

Villa Stepancic, a gorgeously restored villa secluded in three acres of lush Istrian forest is the perfect countryside retreat. The house itself is one of the oldest buildings in the original hamlet of Stepancici and was lovingly restored by its owners in 2016 to create a contemporary and comfortable holiday home.

The villa can easily sleep up to eight guests across four comfortable bedrooms, plus an additional two guests on the sofa bed in the living room and a single futon bed in one of the larger bedrooms. There are three luxurious bathrooms for the guests to use, as well as a large well-manicured garden and private swimming pool. The open-plan living area is bright, airy and spacious with full length windows and patio doors allowing plenty of sunlight to flood the room. There is a fully equipped kitchen, dining and living area – perfect for relaxing with friends and family.

You will find two bedrooms on the ground floor, a double room with en-suite bathroom, a twin bedroom and the first family bathroom. Head upstairs for the remaining two bedrooms, a double and a twin as well as the second family bathroom. All bedrooms have been designed to an extremely high standard with plenty of wardrobe space in each.
Head through the patio doors onto the lovely garden which is extremely private due to its secluded location in the forest. Children will love running around and exploring the garden as well as the playing on the swings. The private swimming pool is the perfect place to cool off on those hot summer days, and can even be heated during cooler months for extra comfort as you swim. There are plenty of seating areas to relax on, both in and out of the shade, the owners of the villa produce their very own wine and the terrace makes the perfect place to sample a glass! Make the most of the barbecue and dine al fresco at any time of the day. With no close neighbours, guests lucky enough to enjoy a stay at Villa Stepancic will enjoy total tranquility and privacy.

Drive just 11km to the coastal resort of Rabac where you can enjoy the beautiful beach coves, dine at one of the lovely restaurants, enjoy a drink in one of the bars or browse the shops. Villa Stepancic provides the perfect base for those wishing to explore the area as well as have a comfortable holiday villa in Croatia.

Sustainability
Villa Stepancic has also put in place a number of features to ensure the villa is as environmentally friendly as possible. The villa is thoroughly insulated thanks to both its traditional thick stone walls and modern insulation techniques, so the house stays cool in summer and warm in winter, saving the amount of energy used to moderate the temperature inside the villa.
The villa has also been designed to maximise natural light with the inclusion of skylights on the top floor, creating a light and airy feeling throughout the property. Solar panels have been installed allowing the Istrian sunshine to heat the water you use the property, while a traditional cistern is used to collect rainfall and provide irrigation during the dry summer months.

Fruit trees and a vineyard surround Villa Stepancic, so depending on the season, it is possible to eat homegrown organic produce, including figs, olives, peaches, chestnuts and more! What's even better, is that any organic waste is composted and placed back in the garden to fertilise the fruit trees. And thanks to this natural surrounding, any wood provided for the fireplace at Villa Stepancic is harvested locally, sometimes within 100m of the villa, so you can rest easy knowing that are enjoying local products during your stay.
