Village Home with Forested Land and Views in Čatrnja

The Property

Welcome to this charming home located in the quiet village of Čatrnja, in the Municipality of Krnjak. Set amidst three hectares of picturesque land, this property is an ideal retreat for those who crave peace, nature, and nice views of the surrounding countryside.

The main house features a 61 m² footprint on the ground floor, with an additional 61 m² attic that offers plenty of potential for development. Whether you’re looking to create extra living space, guest rooms, or a cozy home office, the attic presents endless possibilities for expansion.

In addition to the house, there are three traditional outbuildings: a haybarn, an animal shelter and a barn. There is also a classic “mais” (corn) storage unit. Notably, both the barn and animal shelter come with permits, offering the potential to convert these structures for other uses.

The land itself is a nature lover’s paradise. Spanning three hectares in one piece, the majority of the land is forest, providing a serene backdrop to the home. The forest, located just behind the house, invites you to explore and enjoy the purity of nature right at your doorstep. The property also features an abundance of fruit trees, adding to its rural atmosphere.

The Location

Located just 30 minutes from Karlovac and 23 minutes from the picturesque village of Rastoke and Slunj, this property offers the best of both worlds—peaceful, rural living with convenient access to nearby amenities. The beautiful landscapes surrounding Čatrnja make it an ideal retreat for nature lovers, with hiking trails, fresh air, and scenic views at every turn.

Whether you’re looking to create a family home, a countryside getaway, or explore development possibilities, this property provides a unique opportunity to embrace life in Croatia’s stunning natural environment.
