New builds - Hvar

Hvar is Croatia's longest island and one of the sunniest corners of the Mediterranean, and its property market is really several separate micro-markets. Hvar Town at the western end is the most expensive and best known, with a Renaissance core, the Fortica fortress above it and the Pakleni islands off the harbour. Stari Grad, where the ferry from Split docks, has a different rhythm and sits beside a plain on the UNESCO list — one of the best-preserved ancient agricultural landscapes in the Mediterranean. Jelsa and Vrboska on the northern shore are family-oriented and more attainable, while the interior, with villages such as Vrisnik, Pitve and Velo Grablje, offers stone houses for restoration among vineyards and lavender. Sućuraj at the far eastern tip is linked by a short ferry to Drvenik, making it the quickest connection to the Makarska Riviera. Buyers should understand that on Hvar the choice of village changes both the price and the way a property is used more than on most other islands.
