Love the turquoise shutters!
Grey in the bathroom is fabulous
Traditional wooden flooring
Modern mixed with traditional
Clear uncluttered bedroom, and double doors
Spacious attic room with en suite bathroom
Here's the grey bathroom again
Peaceful patio
Interesting artwork on the landing to create interest
Attractive courtyard surrounded by lavendar ...
I know several people who read Azure Croatia have an interest in interiors (all my other favourite blogs have the interior theme). Although my blog is to air my ideas/views/ surroundings I couldn't help but post this today. I have been working on some properties in the Istrian area - north of Croatia. Properties are quite different in Istria to the ones in Dubrovnik as it is usual in the north to always have fireplaces, central heating, and all insulation from the cold. They always get snow whereas Dubrovnik gets snow once every 45 years (once being Feb 2008). This property is a beautifully restored 18th century villa in Motovun, a fashionable town, famous for its annual film festival. Three bedrooms, and very stylish, the property caught my attention. source.

  2. Such a lovely house! I visited Motovun long time ago when I was a little girl. I was born in Istria and I absolutely love it, as I do all the Adria.
