Legal
The property is 100% owned by a Croatian limited liability company (d.o.o.) which is available to purchase. This makes it very flexible if you want either to develop and sell/rent the East wing, or rent out the whole property. In addition, if the company is purchased there is no liability for the Real Estate Transfer Tax (3% of the assessed market value, not sale value) and there will be no Agency buyer's fee (usually 1-3% of the purchase price).
We can help a prospective buyer find lawyers, accountants, architects, builders, and rental agencies to help smooth your path to a successful purchase.

Very Rare Development Opportunity
There are almost no development opportunities of this size and location left in Kaštela. It represents a fantastic opportunity to develop additional accommodation to complement the main house (work from home office space, gym, additional bedrooms - the list is almost endless).
Alternatively, three two-bedroom apartments could be developed, one on each floor, allowing great rental income opportunities to complement the main house. Combined, the two wings represent a very rare opportunity to create separate accommodation which would also be suitable for one large group.
The east wing of this house is connected to the west wing via the kitchen, and also has access from the courtyard (which has a large gate to the street on the west side) and the street behind, making it uniquely flexible. Guests can come and go on the street side, or come together in the evening in the courtyard.

Kaštel Stari Marina Looking Towards Kaštel Novi
Kaštel Novi - an historic seafront village
Kaštel Novi is an old stone village nestled on the Dalmatian coast between the two UNESCO-protected towns of Split and Trogir.
It is one of seven (together known as the town of Kaštela) that grew up around castles built by local noble families to protect against the threatened Ottoman invasion in the 16th century.
With lots of cafés, bars, great restaurants, and shops nearby, along with two fine beaches (equidistant at 5 mins walk), the house is very well located in the heart of the unspoilt, historic village of Kaštel Novi. There are a number of marinas in the area and the main ferry port in Split, which allow easy access to stunning islands such as Hvar and Brač, for which Croatia is justifiably famous.

Before and After Redevelopment of West Wing
Before and After
This old historic stone house is several hundred years old, and is peacefully located in a quiet but very convenient part of the old town of Kaštel Novi just behind the seafront.
The ground floor had been used as an agricultural store, and the kamenica (big stone storage container), that is visible in the before photo, was traditionally used for storing pressed olive oil. Removing it caused quite a headache, given its size and weight
The end wall was knocked through, creating a spacious, open-plan room, with a huge kitchen, dining area, and two seating areas.
