This stunning 4-bedroom villa lies to the west of Split, on the edge of the beautiful Marjan Forest. With extensive grounds of its own and views out to the Adriatic Ocean, Villa Franjo is furnished to a very high standard and offers a spacious covered terrace and private pool.

The ideal choice for those wishing to explore both Split and the many other wonders of the Dalmatian Coast, Villa Franjo is well located for both the beach and city. The sands lie just 600m from the property, while the centre of Split is just 1.5km away. Popular destinations such as Omiš, Dugi Rat and Jesenice are within a 35-minute drive.

An attractive veranda is steps away from the poolside and features seating areas with a partial sea view. The large garden features an olive tree hill and you will find sun loungers and parasols waiting for you in the pool area.

On the ground floor, you have two large living rooms and a library, each one elegant and comfortable. The chandelier-lit dining area is the place to entertain or be entertained, and it’s easy to adjourn to the terrace for drinks after your meal. A fully equipped open kitchen with dishwasher, microwave, coffee machine and everything else you may need is also on this floor.

With a large balcony, en suite bathroom and walk-in closet, the master bedroom on the first floor enjoys some breathtaking views of the sea and city. There are two more double bedrooms on this floor, both en suite and with underfloor heating. A large suite covers the whole of the second floor, with a double bed and pull-out couch, and its own living area and bathroom.

As if all that wasn’t enough, you will find another bathroom and a fitness room down in the basement, while a garage provides parking for five cars. There’s no shortage of scenic places to drive to on the mainland, from the glorious Krka National Park to the coastal beauty Makarska, or you could take a boat trip to the incredible islands of Brač, Hvar or Korčula – each one is definitely worth setting sail for.
