Olive grove in Draguć, Cerovlje

Olive grove in Draguć, Cerovlje, over 11 hectares!

Hidden deep within Istria, beyond seven mountains and nestled between Pazin and Buzet, lies the charming village of Draguć. Perched on a hilltop, this picturesque hamlet captivates with its timeless, old-world vistas. Draguć, however, is more than just a scenic backdrop; it is a destination for curious tourists drawn to its vividly painted churches adorned with frescoes and sacred treasures. The current village grew around a medieval castle, now seamlessly integrated into later architectural periods. First mentioned in 1102 as Dravuie in a grant by Istrian Margrave Ulrich to the Patriarchs of Aquileia, Draguć later became part of the Duchy of Pazin, passing through the hands of the Counts of Gorizia and eventually the Habsburgs.

Near Draguć, on one of the surrounding hills, lies an agricultural plot now for sale. This land is home to a young olive grove, with 2,400 olive trees (primarily Bianchera and Pendolino varieties) planted across 11.7 hectares. The olive trees, aged between 5 and 10 years, are cultivated within an eco-production system and benefit from an incentive program. The property also features the ruins of an old house and a farm building, both situated at the center of the estate, which, when viewed from above, resembles a star.

The entire land plot is securely fenced, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding hills that cradle this magnificent olive grove. Access is via a well-maintained macadam road.

The seller is a legal entity within the VAT system, and the property has clear ownership with no encumbrances.

This exceptional property is an ideal investment for those interested in olive cultivation, located in a renowned microlocation famous for producing some of the finest Istrian olive oil. It is certainly worth your attention.
