Extraordinary villa for sale in Calvia
Description:
"Casa del Artista" is a contemporary masterpiece set in a private and tranquil property on the outskirts of the village of Calvià, at the foot of the Sierra de Tramuntana, a World Heritage Site in the heart of fashionable southwest Mallorca. After an extensive two-year restoration project, the developers have created a 570 sqm classic home. A perfect blend of contemporary architecture and a historic Mallorcan house. The property is set in 1500 sqm of ground level mature gardens, with mature olive trees, towering tropical palms and sweeping lawns. Since the 1960s, the original house has been the home and studio of a Swedish artist, inspired by the tranquillity and privacy of Casa del Artista. Today it is offered as a colonial-style villa with 5/6 bedrooms, all en-suite and each with private south-facing balconies. Stunning communal areas with direct access to the 14 metre swimming pool. The original artist's former stone house has been restored and completely transformed to accommodate the huge contemporary kitchen. The property has been built to the highest eco-standards for insulation, solar energy use and water recycling. Underfloor heating and fully integrated air conditioning are provided throughout. Privacy is a key feature of this property. Contemporary electric gates to two driveways, ample parking and garage are also provided. The villa is located 10 minutes drive from the beaches and international ports of Port of Portals and Port Adriano and 20 minutes from Palma and the port of Andratx. This exceptional property is unique in its design, construction and stunning elevated location. For those seeking more accommodation or a separate staff/guest house, the adjoining 4-bed/swimming house with garden and swimming pool is also available separately by arrangement.
