Characteristics of houses

A typical house on Brač has an area between 80 and 200 m² of living space, with a plot of 300 to 1,000 m². Sizes and prices vary significantly depending on the microlocation - coastal houses achieve higher prices, while interior villages offer authentic stone houses at more accessible prices. The average price ranges between 1,500 and 4,000 euros per square meter. Traditional stone houses: Characteristic of the entire island, particularly for interior villages such as Nerežišća, Škrip, Dol and Pučišća. Built from local white stone, with thick walls, stone vaults and small windows typical of Mediterranean architecture. Most require adaptation, but preserve an authentic island character and spirit of traditional Dalmatia. Prices range between 100,000 and 350,000 euros, depending on condition and size. Coastal houses and villas: Present in places such as Supetar, Bol, Sutivan and Milna, where they offer modern floor plans, pools and sea views. Sizes range between 150 and 300 m², with prices from 400,000 to over a million euros for more luxurious first-line properties by the sea. These houses are often intended for tourist rental or secondary residence. Renovated stone houses: Adapted traditional construction that combines authenticity with modern comfort. Popular in coastal places and villages with good connectivity, with prices between 250,000 and 600,000 euros, depending on location and degree of renovation.

Areas and microlocations

Supetar: The main town and ferry port offers the best developed infrastructure and accessibility. Houses in the centre are of a smaller type with limited plots, while peripheral areas offer more spacious apartment buildings. Prices are higher due to connectivity with Split and accessibility of all amenities. Bol: The most developed tourist destination with the famous Zlatni Rat beach. Houses here achieve the highest prices on the island, and most are intended for tourist rental. The offer includes modern villas with pools and renovated stone houses in the old part of the town. Sutivan and Milna: Peaceful coastal places with marinas, suitable for sailors. Houses here offer a balance between sea access and peaceful surroundings, with prices lower than in Bol but higher than interior villages. Milna particularly attracts boat owners due to its sheltered cove. Pučišća and Postira: Traditional places known for stone and authentic architecture. Houses are mostly stone with smaller plots, suitable for buyers seeking an authentic island experience with proximity to the sea. Interior villages (Nerežišća, Škrip, Dol): Peaceful areas with traditional stone architecture and the lowest prices on the island. Houses here offer space, privacy and an authentic spirit of Brač, but are further from the sea and often require adaptation.

Location advantages

• Connectivity with Split: A ferry connection of 50 minutes enables daily commute to the coast, making the island suitable for permanent residence with work in the city.
• Tourist tradition: Developed tourist infrastructure in places such as Bol makes houses attractive for investments in tourist rental with high returns.
