Stunning authentic Mallorquin Finca. Relax and unwind in this beautiful property set amongst a world heritage site. With large terraces overlooking the mountains to the north and the Mediterranean to the south and the towns of Andratx in the foreground & Puerto in the distance. The setting is completely private, perfect for families and groups of friends.
In 1973 the current owner and his parents found the ruin after it had been abandoned 50 years earlier during the Spanish Civil War. It took 10 years of painstaking restoration to restore the Finca to its current authentic splendor.
INSIDE this authentically restored farmhouse are 7 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, and a fully equipped country kitchen with modern appliances perfect for group cooking (or caterers which can be arranged). Both the living & dining rooms serve as the center of the home and both rooms have open wood fireplaces supplied by ample wood fuel. And of course, there is wi-fi internet access throughout, a Flat Screen with an Apple TV device to watch movies, and a library of English books to choose from. The owner is a prolific reader of classics and contemporary literature.
The formal dining (also the front entrance hall) & living rooms and kitchen are divided by 3-foot thick walls with arched passageways between all three principal rooms.
THE KITCHEN (formerly a grain mill) has vaulted beamed ceilings & still has the original beams. You’ll love the view of the Tramuntana Mountain range and the walkout to a back terrace complete with a small garden and BBQ. The kitchen is fully equipped to accommodate large groups with a big gas stove & oven, dishwasher, two large fridges, coffee machines, blender, toaster, and microwave. There are also two clothes washing machines.
BEDROOMS AND BATHS: In the main house block there are 5 bedrooms – 4 of which are on the second floor serviced by 2 bathrooms: there two 3-piece bathrooms. Two of the upper bedrooms (both with King size beds) face south with spectacular vistas of the Med. The two north-facing bedrooms (towards the mountains) both have washbasins with hot and cold running water. The 5th bedroom (with queen bed) is on the ground floor with a walk-out to the terrace and the four-piece bathroom (ideal for the elderly).
The 6th bedroom with a King bed is a self-contained apartment yet structurally connected to the main house but is only accessible from the pool terrace. This pool apartment has its own brand new modern private 3-piece bathroom, has air conditioning, and enjoys spectacular views to the south. There is a 6th bathroom in the pool apartment for those using the pool area.
The Olive Press Wing is a magnificent (7th) bedroom (the largest) suite with King size bed, air conditioning, and its own 4-piece bathroom ensuite, fireplace, and commanding view of the valley below. It also has its own private living room and a small bedroom (8th) for babies, child or the elderly needing attention.
GARDEN
The gardens of this mountain retreat are the owner’s constant source of pride. The pool is flanked by bougainvilleas, hibiscus plants, and an almond grove. Sitting by the pool with the distant sound of the sheep bells as they climb the amphitheater of hills is sublime. Private hiking trails are accessible right off the pool terrace into the National parkland that surrounds this home. This tranquil location is a rare treat of complete privacy where clothes are optional.
