Historic jewel with renovation project & holiday rental licence

Welcome to this historic jewel in the heart of Palma de Mallorca. The unique property, nestled in the historic centre of the city, in the Calatrava district, is not only part of the catalogue for the protection of buildings of historical, artistic, architectural and landscape interest, but is also a characteristic example of Gothic architecture. The building, whose origins date back to the early Middle Ages, is known as "Can Barbier" and forms an important part of the city's historical heritage. It was remodelled in the 19th and 20th centuries in the Baroque style and today is distributed over three floors. The approved project aims to preserve the unique personality and charm of this building while integrating state-of-the-art building technology. For example, the project includes a lift that connects the garage to all living levels without barriers. Other special features include the living room with a large sun terrace (19 sqm) on the same level, which faces south and offers an open view, as well as the enchanting tower roof terrace (18 sqm), which offers a fantastic view of the cathedral, Bellver Castle, the sea and the rooftops of Palma. Depending on requirements, two to five bedrooms can be created, each with an en suite bathroom. The 10 sqm indoor pool adjoins historic city walls dating back to the 8th century and is an absolute rarity in such a historic ensemble. The medieval coffered ceiling and the southern side wall bear witness to the fascinating history that this property has experienced over the centuries and emphasise the stately character of this elegant townhouse. The residence has its own cistern for an independent water supply and offers the possibility of installing solar panels to achieve complete energy independence. "Can Barbier" is not just a property, but a living link to Palma's past. Following the renovation, history and modernity combine to create an unrivalled living ambience in the heart of the Old Town. A holiday rental licence is already available. The price quoted here includes the project completed turnkey by the team of architects as shown in the renders. However, it is also possible to purchase the property in its current condition. Please contact us for detailed information.
