Three-bedroom design-led apartment with historic charm in Palma

Nestled within a characterful building from 1942, this full-floor residence represents a sophisticated approach to island living in Mallorca. Located in the tranquil, tree-lined enclave of Palma, the home has been meticulously reimagined to honour its heritage while introducing a contemporary, organic aesthetic. This Property in Palma offers a rare sense of seclusion and space, standing as a testament to intentional design just a short stroll from the vibrant energy of Santa Catalina.

Property Interior

The living spaces are defined by an impressive 3.10-metre ceiling height and a soft palette of mineral-textured walls and seamless concrete flooring. At the heart of the home, a bespoke oak and natural stone kitchen by Aina Interiors flows into a bright, open-plan lounge, creating a social hub that feels both grounded and airy. Every detail has been curated to foster a sense of calm, from the tactile finishes to the way light interacts with the broad architectural volumes.

The master suite serves as a private sanctuary, featuring extensive floor-to-ceiling wardrobes and a luxurious en-suite finished in microcement. Twin natural-stone basins and a spacious double shower provide a tactile, spa-like experience within the comfort of the home. Two additional bedrooms offer versatile space for guests or family, each retaining the same commitment to quality materials and understated elegance found throughout the residence.

Practicality meets luxury with the inclusion of a separate guest water closet and discreet underfloor heating in the bathrooms for the cooler winter months. The layout occupies the entire floor of the building, ensuring a level of privacy and quietude that is hard to find in such a central urban location. The renovation, completed in 2026, ensures that every modern convenience is integrated seamlessly into the historic fabric of the structure.

Property Exterior

Outdoor living is thoughtfully integrated into the floor plan, with a generous 20-square-metre east-facing terrace extending from the main living area. This space serves as an alfresco dining room, catching the soft morning light and providing a serene backdrop for slow Mediterranean lunches. The connection between the interior and the terrace is fluid, encouraged by large openings that invite the outside in.

Beyond the main terrace, the property features a variety of balconies and private exterior niches, ensuring that every room has its own direct access to the fresh air. This architectural choice maximises natural light and creates a constant dialogue with the surrounding Son Armadams neighbourhood. The most notable outdoor feature remains the secluded loggia off the master bedroom, a true architectural gem designed for relaxation.

The exterior of the 1942 building retains its timeless Mediterranean charm, sitting harmoniously within a district known for its quiet streets and proximity to the sea. Residents can enjoy the greenery of the nearby Bellver Forest or walk down to the marina within minutes. It is a location that perfectly facilitates a lifestyle of ease, where the best of the city’s culinary and cultural offerings are always within reach.
