After decades of neglect, this 200-year-old stone house on the island of Hvar was brought back to life
The home overlooks the Adriatic Sea. Photo: Vedran Rafael Janic “It was a ruin, basically: four walls, no roof or floors,” Tomi Sakic says of the property he and his partner bought on the island of Hvar. “The house stood like this for half a century before we took it on.” Finding property that has a “cleared” ownership title in Croatia is challenging, Sakic explains, since many long-abandoned houses can still be claimed by descendants of people who emigrated between the 1890s and World War I.
“Early on, when I envisioned the stone house I was looking for, I always thought it would be placed directly by the sea,” Sakic says. He feels lucky that he found a property with a view of the water rather than being on the water, as it removes the house from the tourist scene. He kept the original footprint of the building in the renovation and established alfresco areas in which to relax and dine.
