Luxury 400 year old restored villa with 180 degree views across the Bay of Kotor

The 400 year-old heritage property has been fully restored and modernised to provide all the comforts of 21st century living, while retaining all the charm of its long history. Located high up on the Lustica peninsula, the villa has dramatic, 180-degree views of the Bay of Kotor and the twin massifs of the Orjen and Lovcen mountains, and is nestled on a peaceful hillside surrounded by olive groves, small stone hamlets and fishing villages.

This villa features a seasonal outdoor 10m salt pool, dry cleaning, and laundry facilities. Free WiFi and parking are also provided. Additionally, a garden, barbecue grills, and a private pool are on site. The villa benefits from a daily housekeeping service.

This villa offers 5 air-conditioned bedrooms, which are accessible via separate entrances and feature private en-suites and safes. Each bedroom is individually decorated with a combination of English and continental antique and contemporary furniture.

There is a large sitting room with comfortable sofas, and a wood burning stove, a spacious and modern kitchen dining room comfortably seating 12, and a sizeable first floor veranda for outdoor dining, with stunning views onto the rural landscape and the sea beyond.

The terraced garden, which is planted with typical Mediterranean plans, herbs and trees, includes a 10 meter infinity pool, a large stone paved sun terrace, and a shady pergola made from parts of the original wooden olive press that was in use until less than twenty years ago. The pergola also includes a basic summer kitchen with fridge and BBQ.

Guests will not want to leave this stunning hillside sanctuary, but should they want to, the medieval UNESCO protected seaside fortress town of Kotor, the idyllic Venetian republic maritime towns of Rose and Perast, and the glitz of Porto Montenegro, Europe's largest super-yacht marina, with its clubs, boutiques, spas and restaurants, are all a short drive away. The house is well served by local restaurants serving fresh local fish and seafood and supermarkets, and there are several beaches within a 15 minute drive.

The villa is a perfect get away location in the autumn/winter "off season" with a wood burning stove, a well stocked wood-shed, first class bedding/ soft furnishings shipped from London, and a variety of mountain walks/hiking nearby ( as well as skiing in the mountains to the North).
