Architect's home Plitvice, National Park Plitvice Lakes

As the name says, this is not a house, this is a HOME. Designed by prominent architect in Croatia, Zdravko Bregovac in the 1970-ties (1973 to be exact), now also owned by an architect and his family, the Architect’s home presents rare example of luxury accommodation in the very heart of Plitvice National Park – in the village Plitvica Selo.
Architect Bregovac, also known as architect of tourism, has a fascinating opus of designing more than 35 hotels and 25 tourist villages thourghout this region, and Architect’s home present one of rare Single houses designed by him. Working and designing through different typologies, sizes and organisations, no matter if it is a hotel on the Adriatic coast, or in the far depths of Lika forest, Bregovac makes tourist constructions never to be seen by that time, spaces in which a guest perceives unseen experience.
Architect’s home is one of such places. Situated in a small village of Plitvica selo, just after the Big waterfall, the property has 3500 square meters of land and almost 220 square meters of house, overlooking the Kozjak lake. Surrounded with 50 years old pine trees and wooden fence, it presents a peaceful get-a-way in the very centre of Plitvice National Park.
If you ever want to get out of the house, it will take you 10 minutes of leisure walk to get to lake Kozjak and transfer boats and 15 minutes to the Big waterfall.
As mentioned before, the house is now also owned by an architect, who meticulously renewed the old house, keeping full wooden structure and mountain appearance. With new luxury amenities, this house is self-sustainable, suitable for family or families to settle for a couple of days and get the full Lika forest and Plitvice National Park tour.

Just at a first glance, you can see that this house is something really different than other rentals in the neighborhood. With wooden roof stretching almost to the ground, big glass balcony doors overlooking Kozjak lake, stone basement, wooden beams hanging from ceiling and impressive design, entering the Home you can feel as though you have entered into architects home in the 70-ties. However, the house is completely renovated, respectfully keeping the spirit of that age.

Keep in mind, this is still a wooden house surrounded by 3500 square meters of private property. So if you hear some scratching on the roof, that are probably our 2 squirrels fighting over a hazelnut and during winter time be sure to take a look out on the field to find some fresh rabbit tracks in the snow.

Architect’s home Plitivce is equipped with everything you think you need and some more: central heating system powered by organic pelettes, (air condition is really not necessary), lots of extras for the kids, wellness area for “big kids”, kitchen with coffee/tea machine, ice maker, wine fridge, bread baker,satelite TV, wi-fi, hi-fi docking station,….the house is completely self-sustainable for you to enjoy, and if it weren’t for these beautiful lakes that are 10 minutes walk from the house, you would probably never want to go out.

Lets take a tour of the house:
GROUND FLOOR
Ground floor is the only floor made out of stone and concrete. This is THE PARTY part of the house. You can enter it from the garden or down the stairs from the first floor, since the main entrance of the house is on the 1st floor. Going down the stairs, first you will find our wellness area. Equipped with big tailor made sauna, shower and a hot tub and a relaxing are, it is for adults only area. Please keep in mind you are using it at your own responsibility. Down the hallway, you will arrive to a party room that leads to the garden. Party room has nice area to mingle with friends, fully equipped kitchen (also used as summer kitchen for barbecue) and a fridge with a bar.

FIRST FLOOR
When you arrive at the property and park the car, main entrance to the house gets you directly on the first floor. This is the very heart of the house. You can find there also a fully equipped kitchen, bathroom with a shower, dinning area, 2 large sofas (that can be stretched for more bed accommodation), fireplace and a reading area, and balcony overlooking the property. There are also special area for kinds with bean bag and lost of toys in the treasure chest.

Weather you just want to have breakfast in the terrace under the sun, or read a book with cracking sound of wood burning in the fireplace, this area is suited to indulge your every need.

SECOND FLOOR
