Historic villas on the coast for people with refined taste - Montenegrin luxury real estate also delighted the British

Above the entrance is the most outstanding decorative detail: a composition of angels in stucco with a baroque frame with the coat of arms of the Vrachien family, depicting a swallow. Next to the entrance is an arched street passage, above which is a room that originally served as a house chapel, the only one of its kind in Kotor.

- It is a challenge, but the builders have adapted and trained themselves to build such palaces. What we got through a strong investment cycle is that the British came to our country and taught us how to renovate such houses. They have it in their DNA and their history, houses from the 16th or 17th century are not unknown to them. Now we have learned to do it too, we preserve the architecture, materials and elegance that those buildings have. I notice more and more people`s awareness that this heritage should be preserved. It`s a good thing that even Unesco does not allow construction of buildings that deviate from the concept of the bay - says our interlocutor.

And who are the buyers of these types of real estate? Our interlocutor says that these are people of exquisite taste, those who recognize their true value - price, historical and artistic.

- These are people who, above all, love the Mediterranean, who love history, know how to appreciate the entire heritage that stands behind such buildings. They are mostly business people, who have seen and experienced a lot. They know how to recognize true values, take care of history and architecture. Although we are talking here about buildings that were built with only a compass and a ruler, at a time when there were no computers and modern programs, they have incredible beauty. You can clearly see that the people of that time knew what they were doing, that they assessed every corner, every surface, every window, that a lot of love was put into those houses. Therefore, the buyers of such buildings must be truly experienced people, who recognize all this, have love for such real estate and who, through their family upbringing and family values, have learned to appreciate it - concludes Lakovic.
