Description

Nestled within the serene and highly sought-after landscape of Alaró, this majestic 16th-century estate stands as an extraordinary testament to Mallorcan history and architectural excellence. Once the private residence of the Bishop of Palma, the property has undergone a masterful and respectful restoration under the direction of the island’s most celebrated architect, Antonio Obrador. Every protected historical element has been meticulously preserved and restored, resulting in a remarkable sanctuary where centuries of heritage blend seamlessly with refined contemporary luxury—all within walking distance of Alaró’s charming market square, vibrant international community, and acclaimed cafés, bars, and restaurants. Behind ancient stone walls lies an enchanting private Mediterranean oasis. The grounds form a living tapestry of venerable olive trees, fragrant citrus groves, and historic fig trees, woven together over generations. Meandering stone pathways and elegant staircases guide you through the estate, beginning with a grand entrance courtyard that discreetly incorporates a spacious garage. At the heart of the outdoor living experience is a pristine swimming pool surrounded by a tranquil sun terrace, complemented by a fully independent pool house complete with its own kitchen, shower, and WC—perfect for effortless entertaining and relaxed summer living. The Main Residence: Grandeur Reimagined The ground floor welcomes guests through an impressive entrance hall that immediately conveys a sense of timeless nobility. This level features an exquisite private chapel and an intimate library lounge, both centred around magnificent fireplaces, as well as a formal dining room and a gourmet kitchen with a dedicated pantry. Designed to embrace Mallorca’s indoor-outdoor lifestyle, the dining area opens directly onto the gardens and pool area. Some steps lead to a luxurious guest suite, complete with an en-suite bathroom and adjoining private sitting room, completes this floor. Ascending to the planta noble, the estate’s principal floor, one is greeted by a magnificent central salon with a stately fireplace. This elegant space leads to the exceptional master suite, featuring a generous dressing room and a lavish en-suite bathroom. Also on this level are a distinguished wood-panelled study, an additional guest bedroom with a private bathroom, and an expansive terrace overlooking the manicured gardens, with exclusive direct access to the pool below. Exceptional Accommodation for Guests and Staff Underscoring its status as one of Alaró’s most distinguished residences, the estate includes a fully independent guest house comprising three elegant bedrooms, two bathrooms, a charming living room with fireplace, and a private kitchen. In addition, a self-contained ground-floor apartment—with two bedrooms, a bathroom, living area, and kitchen—provides ideal accommodation for extended family, VIP guests, or dedicated staff. The property is equipped with central heating and air conditioning throughout, ensuring year-round comfort. More than a residence, this exceptional estate represents a rare opportunity to acquire a living piece of Mallorca’s history, meticulously restored and curated for the most discerning buyer. An additional opportunity exists to purchase the fully equipped neighbouring townhouse, offering three bedrooms and three bathrooms across 315 m² of built área, for 1.250.000 EUR.

Location: Alaró, Balearic Islands

The picturesque village of Alaró is located in a quiet valley between two well-known mountains in the south of the Tramuntana mountain range. It is located in the centre of the island of Mallorca and currently has more than 5,700 inhabitants. It is about 20 minutes from the centre of Palma, as well as from the nearest beaches and the airport. It has numerous restaurants, as well as our beautiful Engel & Völkers office in the town square. It stands out for its old architecture and beautiful cobbled streets in the oldest part of the village, as well as for the surrounding nature. Alaró is home to a weekly market every Saturday, where one can find local fresh produce and clothes. In addition, its inhabitants of different nationalities give it a great cultural diversity. One of the most famous sights is the Castell d'Alaró, which is situated on the top of the mountain at an altitude of 822 metres and is listed as a site of cultural interest. The castle has stunning views of the Mallorcan countryside and as far as the bay of Palma, and is about two hours' walk from the centre of the village. It is a popular village for cyclists and hikers as it has some of the best routes on the island. The most important industry for the village was the shoe industry, which once numbered 30 factories, and today still includes the workshop of Tony Mora, world famous for his handmade cowboy boots.
