On the setting

A hillside position
with the horizon held
open
on three sides.

High above the coastline of Opatija, in the village of Veprinac, this building plot of 1,686 m² (0.17 ha) offers open panoramic views over Kvarner Bay, the islands and the Adriatic. Marina Ičići lies below the hillside, while the setting remains quiet and naturally sheltered.

The land to the left, right and below the parcel is designated as protected green zone — ensuring that the horizon remains open and unobstructed. This is not a position one negotiates for twice. Once a neighbouring parcel is built, it is built.

The plot follows the natural slope of the terrain, allowing the future architecture to step down with the landscape while maintaining sea views from every level.

Approved concept, aerial view — pool deck and stepped terraces integrated into the hillside.

A five-level residence

Approved.
Unbuilt.

Within this setting, a five-level villa has been carefully planned. The property includes a valid and final building permit for a residence developed with a clearly defined architectural concept focused on privacy, wellness and spatial clarity.

Access is planned from the upper level, where parking sits next to the main entrance. Entry leads directly to the second floor, from which the residence extends both upward and downward — establishing a clear vertical organisation of living spaces. Not currently operating as a rental.

  • Five levels — access & parking, living, private suites, wellness, landscape
  • Five en-suite bedrooms, primary suite with sea orientation
  • Internal elevator connecting ground and second floors
  • Infinity pool and terraced gardens, stepped with the slope
  • Wellness level with wet-room, hammam, private spa
  • 1,686 m² land (0.17 ha) with protected green zones on three sides
  • Concept fully transferable — buildable as drawn, or revised
Why this, specifically

Permit & view don't come back.

The Opatija Riviera is one of the few remaining stretches of the Croatian coast where hillside building permits are still granted, rarely, and against genuinely protected horizons. This parcel has both, already in hand.

i.

Permit in hand

A valid and final building permit is issued for the five-level concept as drawn. No rezoning risk, no public-consultation risk, no architect-fee exposure. The approval itself is a meaningful portion of what is being transferred.

ii.

Protected horizon

Land to the left, right and below is zoned as protected green. The view cannot be taken away by a neighbour's development — the single most common way a coastal parcel loses half its value between purchase and build.

iii.

Build, hold, or revise

Three paths open from purchase. Build to the concept for owner occupation. Hold for appreciation. Or revise the concept with a new architect — the permit envelope is the hard part, and it is already negotiated.
