Villa Livia is a detached natural stone villa with pool and panoramic views of the surrounding vineyards and hills.
The house is situated on the hillside, on the edge of a small village called Sovinjak, between the two medieval towns of Buzet and Motovun, in the centre of Istria's truffle region.
The enchanting landscape, tranquillity and unspoilt nature are ideal for families and friends seeking relaxation from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
Due to its location in the centre of Istria, the villa is an ideal starting point for exploring the whole of Istria, which is famous for its excellent wines, olive oils, white truffles and gourmet restaurants.

No expense or effort was spared when it came to the interior design, which is both tasteful and practical.
