Is Žižanj Island Villa Estate for sale, and how much does it cost?

Žižanj Island Villa Estate is a 11.7 acres private island in Adriatic (Zadar archipelago), Croatia. It is currently offered for sale: €7,500,000. Tenure is freehold. Foreign ownership is permitted subject to local approvals. This is an editorial profile drawn from public record, clearly attributed, not our listing.

Summary

A rare turnkey private island in the Zadar archipelago, Žižanj is offered at seven and a half million euros as a fully self-sufficient estate. Its roughly twelve acres carry two modern stone villas, an infinity pool and a certified-organic olive grove, all run off solar power and desalination with two private piers for yachts. Marketed complete with furnishings, boats and olive-press equipment, it is one of the few Croatian islands a buyer can occupy immediately. The appeal is a ready-made, off-grid Adriatic retreat with income and lifestyle potential, a short run from the serviced mainland at Biograd.

Land & Waterfront

The island runs to about twelve acres with some five hundred and eighty metres of private coastline on the clear, sheltered waters of the Zadar archipelago. Its centrepiece beyond the buildings is a 665-tree certified-organic olive grove planted in 2006, which has produced award-winning oil, giving the land a genuine productive purpose. The Adriatic here is renowned for clarity and calm anchorages, making bathing, diving and yacht mooring straightforward. Two private piers connect the estate directly to the water, and the compact scale keeps the whole island easily managed.

Access & Utilities

Access is a twenty-minute boat ride from Biograd na Moru, with Zadar airport serving the wider region. The estate is entirely self-sufficient: solar power, a desalination plant producing around seven thousand litres a day, and some two hundred thousand litres of water storage support year-round use without mains connection. Two piers provide secure berthing for visiting yachts. Because the systems are already installed and proven, a buyer inherits a working off-grid property rather than an engineering project, though capacities and maintenance records should be verified in diligence.

Ownership & Use

EU and EEA buyers can acquire on national terms under EU rules, and the island is offered as a clean private freehold, avoiding the divided-title issues seen elsewhere on the coast. Sold furnished and equipped, including boats and olive-processing gear, it is positioned for immediate private use or as a high-end rental flagship, with the olive operation adding character and modest yield. Buyers should confirm the coastal maritime-domain strip and pier consents through counsel, but the essential proposition is unusually simple: a habitable, income-capable Adriatic island ready from day one.
