Property of the week: a one of a kind home in Majorca

If you had to list the reasons that Spain is so popular among ex-pats, high on that list for most people would be the Mediterranean sea. The Costa del Sol and Costa Blanca on the mainland are incredibly popular for this reason, but it is hard to get more Mediterranean than Majorca, the location of this week's property, a spectacular home overlooking the Bay of Palma. On a quiet street, with beautiful beaches, coves, and diving spots up and down the coast, a stone's throw from the exclusive T-Golf and Country Club, and only a short drive from the Adriano Marina in El Toro and the capital of the island, Palma, with all of its amenities, this property has everthing you could need to start a life of relaxation and luxury, in one of the most beautiful locations in the world.

At a glance, the fabulous architecture is what catches your eye, the sloping rooves and terraces reminiscient of the calm Mediterranean waves the house looks out over. Below this one of a kind façade, there is a staggering 1,479m2 of floorspace, with the plot of land belonging to the property measuring over 8,000m2. With a total of 11 bedrooms and 10 bathrooms (including the staff apartment and guest house), the property has space for any size family, and room to spare for guests. 

The living room, leading out to the terrace idealista

From the moment you step through the main entrance you will be greeted by the stunning sea views its commanding location offers, only slightly more impressive than the elegant, opulent design, right down to the polished white floors. Descending the grand, curved staircase you will find the main living area, spacious and open plan but also broken up by supporting columns, the sleek white of the floors and walls makes the space feel bright and open, while the exposed wooden support beams in the ceiling add a homely, even rustic almost, touch to the space. Next to this is the craftsman-fitted kitchen with spectacular marble worktops and splash backs, modern appliances and a walk-in refrigerator. Both the kitchen and the living area have large doors leading out to the beautiful pool and terrace, with the terrace serving as a large dining area in the shade. There is also a sunbathing area here, boasting stunning panoramic views. 

The ground floor has five double bedrooms, each with a large ensuite, built-in wardrobes, and sea views, but the master suite is located away from the rest of the rooms, providing the owners with complete privacy. This room has a large ensuite and walk-in wardrobe/dressing room, stunning sea views and a private terrace. All of the rooms open out onto the garden where there are large sofas and sun beds overlooking the sea. There is a further double bedroom on the lower floor of the property, where you will also find a wine cellar and fully equipped gym, and apart from the main house there is also a guesthouse with two en-suite bedrooms, and the staff apartments. The property has parking for up to 5 cars, a security system, sound system, underfloor heating, and air conditioning, a tennis court, and the gardens lead down to a private cave, with direct sea access.

This unique villa is one of the most beautiful properties on the whole island, perfect for an extravagent life, relaxation in the sun, or a bit of both. It is currently for sale on idealista for 35,000,000 euros.
