School building Villa Jakovici
Welcome to a unique residence that combines a rich history with modern luxury. This villa is located in the picturesque heart of Istria and was built over 100 years ago as a schoolhouse. Today it has been transformed into a spacious and elegant holiday home, ideal for groups of up to 20 guests.
From the moment you arrive, you'll be mesmerized by its authentic charm – the wide courtyard, imposing entrance, and rows of elegant windows all hint at its educational past. Inside, carefully preserved historical details blend harmoniously with contemporary comforts, ensuring a perfect balance between tradition and modern convenience.
The ground floor has a spacious living room with a comfortable seating area and an extra bed, a fully equipped kitchen, and a large dining area that is perfect for gatherings. This level also has two bedrooms that share a bathroom, making it an ideal setup for families with children. A beautifully preserved staircase leads to the upper floor, where a bright hall with arched windows floods the space with natural light. Here you will find seven additional bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and views of the lush garden and private pool.
Outside, the villa offers a serene and private retreat. The outdoor swimming pool is surrounded by sun loungers and greenery, providing the perfect place to relax. Next to the pool, a covered terrace with a traditional stone barbecue and a dining area invites you to enjoy al fresco meals under the warm Istrian sky. With its unique past, refined comfort and idyllic surroundings, this promises an unforgettable stay in Istria.
Located in the tranquil village of Jakovici, the villa offers the perfect balance of privacy and proximity to Istria's top attractions. Despite the quiet rural setting, the villa is only a 15-minute drive from Poreč, where you can discover beautiful beaches, restaurants, and cultural attractions. Other highlights, such as Rovinj, Pula and the Istrian countryside, are also within easy reach. Nearby, the villages of Tinjan and Baderna offer easy access to shops, restaurants, and essential amenities.
