A True Escape From the Ordinary
Ancient Rome's villas were not merely countryside residences but symbols of power, status, and the pursuit of intellectual and spiritual enlightenment. These sprawling estates, often located in rural, suburban, or coastal areas, embraced the beauty of their natural surroundings. The interior spaces revolved around enchanting courtyards, while columned terraced gardens showcased abundant flora and fauna. The villas served as retreats, offering solace from the pressures of city life and opportunities for intellectual growth and philosophical contemplation. And that's the same philosophy of LaMaison Villa. This Istrian retreat, situated on a 2500 square meter plot, offers a true escape from the ordinary, where each room opens up to the verdant gardens that surround the property. Basking in the warm embrace of nature, you can truly immerse yourself in the tranquility and beauty of the outdoors, indulging in moments of relaxation and rejuvenation. Whether sipping a morning coffee in the outdoor kitchen or enjoying an evening aperitif near the pool, the lush gardens provide the perfect backdrop for unwinding and embracing the joys of life's luxuries.
Fusion of Medieval and Contemporary Styles
As soon as you step inside, you'll be captivated by its luxurious and welcoming atmosphere. With three bedrooms and a master suite, it offers enough space for you and your loved ones to relax and unwind.
Most of the furniture and decor items are sourced from Provence, adding a touch of rustic elegance to the villa. Many of these pieces are created by lesser-known French artists, lending an air of exclusivity to the space. You'll also notice the influence of Moroccan and Indian styles, which infuse the rooms with a hint of exoticism. The juxtaposition of these elements with large, modern furniture pieces creates a refreshing and eclectic ambiance that sets La Maison apart from others.

Moreover, if you happen to drive an electric vehicle, you'll be pleased to know that the villa provides a TESLA charging station in the parking area, ensuring that your trusty electric companion is always ready to go on new adventures. And when we talk about the adventures, you'll love the villa's location. Situated in the heart of Istria, all charming towns are within reach. Poreč and romantic Rovinj are a 25-minute drive away, the attractive Istrian medieval town Motovun is 30 minutes away, and the largest town in Istria, Pula, with its impressive Roman amphitheater, is 35 minutes away.
