Types of houses

Traditional stone houses: Older buildings in Murter town, Betina and Jezera. Most require renovation, but retain authentic Dalmatian character. Suitable for buyers seeking a renovation project.

Investment context

Houses on Murter show stable growth in value thanks to tourist demand and limited supply of new building plots. The possibility of tourist rental ensures additional income, while proximity to Kornati attracts a specific profile of guests. For comparison, apartments offer easier maintenance and often better liquidity. Alternatively, buyers can consider land for construction tailored to their own needs. In the wider area, houses in Tisno and Vodice offer similar accessibility with different location characteristics.
