Stanzia Sparagna is an exquisite property next to the village of Kostanjica in the most picturesque part of Istria. Located on a solitary position, it is an ideal haven for those seeking complete relaxation in a natural environment. Yet, it is perfectly located in the proximity of the most popular spots - historic towns, beaches, top restaurants, and wineries of northwest Istria. Owned by the same family for more than two centuries, Stanzia Sparagna has been carefully renovated from 2020 to 2022. All the works have been carried out by local craftsmen applying traditional techniques and renewable materials. The core of the property is a thoroughly renovated stone house immersed in the hilly rural landscape with contemporary designed interiors, a 12-meter swimming pool, and a rooftop observation deck. The spacious ground floor consists of the kitchen with a dining zone and a partly double height living room with an open staircase. The front terrace with an old stone table is covered by a jasmine and wisteria pergola. It overlooks the swimming pool, with olive trees and vineyards in the background. The swimming pool is equipped with a swim jet for recreational swimming, an outside shower, and a bathroom accessible from the outside. The shaded back terrace with a kitchen garden is used for open air dining under an old oak, looking at the picturesque village of Kostanjica in the distance. Each of the five bedrooms has its own bathroom and windows with amazing views on both sides of the house. On the first floor there is a master bedroom and another bedroom with its own exit to the garden, both with en suite bathrooms. On the second floor there are three bedrooms with high ceilings under the traditional sloped roof. Two of them have en suite bathrooms while the largest room has strip windows on both sides connecting it to the surrounding landscape. The estate has an area of more than one hectare, consisting of the front and back lawns, a kitchen garden, a small oak forest and a recently planted orchard and olive groves with old local varieties of fruit and olive trees, all organically grown.
