Beli, Cres – Beautifully Restored Stone House in One of the Adriatic’s Most Authentic Settings
Beli, Island of Cres
A stone house for those who choose a place, not an address.
In the very heart of historic Beli, one of the most authentic places among the Croatian islands, Kaiser Immobilien presents a rare opportunity to acquire an exceptional detached stone house combining tradition, character, and contemporary comfort.
Nestled among the narrow stone lanes of this unique hilltop village above the sea, the house offers approximately 180 m² of living space arranged across three levels and organized into two independent residential units with separate entrances, allowing for multiple ways of use — from family living and multi-generational residence to a combination of private enjoyment and tourist rental.
The ground-floor unit offers a warm and intimate atmosphere with a spacious living room, traditional fireplace, kitchen, large bathroom, and utility spaces. Thick stone walls, natural coolness, and a sense of privacy give this space its distinctive character.
The main entrance leads to a duplex apartment occupying the first and second floors. The lower level comprises an entrance hall, kitchen, bathroom, storage room, and living and dining area connected to two terraces offering different experiences throughout the day — one welcomes you home, while the other becomes an extension of the living space and a setting for peaceful mornings or long summer evenings.
The upper floor accommodates three bedrooms and an additional bathroom, with selected rooms opening onto a balcony or a generous terrace overlooking the surrounding village atmosphere.
During an extensive reconstruction and renovation completed in 2005, the house was thoroughly renewed with exceptional attention to detail and with the involvement of specialized contractors. Key structural and finishing elements were upgraded, including the roof and roof insulation, new copper sheet metal works, chimneys and fireplaces, inter-floor structures, exterior joinery with insulated glazing, aluminium shutters, façade, balcony elements, and the complete interior.
Much of the interior, including bespoke furniture, interior and entrance doors, and selected premium household appliances, was created with long-term use in mind and without compromise in quality.
The property has been continuously used and carefully maintained throughout the years. Future owners may choose to carry out minor cosmetic updates according to personal preferences; however, the house is fully functional and ready for immediate use without the need for major investment.
Documentation relating to the renovation works and contractors involved is available.
Thanks to its thick stone walls, the house naturally remains pleasantly cool during summer months, while heating is provided by fireplaces and additional heating systems. The property also benefits from its own rainwater cistern and connection to the public water supply.
The true value of this property lies in its location.
Beli is not a place people choose by accident.
Situated in the north of Cres Island, far from mass tourism, it is known for its stone architecture, untouched nature, crystal-clear sea, and unique sense of peace. It is a place for those seeking authenticity, space, and a different rhythm of life.
The property includes a parking space located approximately 150 metres away. As with most historic island settlements, the final approach is on foot through narrow stone alleys — a detail that today no longer represents a limitation, but a privilege.
Some properties offer space.
