Historic estate in Pollença to renovate, with over 8,900 sq ft of built area and unique potential

Located in one of the most authentic and sought-after areas in northern Mallorca, this spectacular estate in Pollença —known as Ca’n Martorellet— represents a unique opportunity for those seeking a historical property with soul, ideal for renovation and transformation into a high-end project.

With a built area of 8,944 sq ft (831 m²) spread across various traditional stone buildings, and set on a plot of over 603 acres (2,440,000 m²), this finca offers not only space but also history, privacy, and an exceptional natural environment.

The estate is nestled in the Vall de Sant Vicenç, within the municipality of Pollença, in the heart of the Serra de Tramuntana —a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This location is one of the most desirable among international buyers, especially from the United States, for its natural beauty, peaceful surroundings, and easy access to northern beaches, golf courses, scenic hiking trails, and charming towns such as Pollença and Cala Sant Vicenç.

The property maintains its traditional Mallorcan character and consists of the original manor house and a peasant’s dwelling. The current layout includes 9 double bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, several living areas, kitchens, a large garage for multiple vehicles, terrace, courtyard, and a spacious garden. The entire structure is currently in need of full renovation, offering the buyer complete freedom to reimagine and customize the interior and exterior spaces to fit any vision or lifestyle.

Among its most unique features is a swimming pool with cascading water, fed by an original hydraulic system that runs through the gardens, creating a serene and idyllic atmosphere. The property also includes two natural freshwater springs, a Bronze Age prehistoric necropolis, and several historic agricultural buildings such as stone sheep pens, haylofts, and barns —a testament to the finca’s long-standing rural heritage.

Ca’n Martorellet was once the central part of the medieval Alqueria of Sant Vicenç, first documented in the 13th century in the “Llibre del Repartiment,” and has retained its original character throughout the centuries. From medieval architectural details such as Gothic-style windows to a reformed defensive watchtower, the property exudes authenticity. It stands as one of the most representative and historically significant estates in northern Mallorca.

Though it requires a full restoration, the estate’s potential is extraordinary: whether envisioned as a private luxury residence, a high-end rural retreat, or an investment in hospitality targeting an international audience. The expansive land area would also allow for agricultural, equestrian, or wellness-focused uses, subject to local regulations.

This is a rare opportunity to create a landmark project in Mallorca, in a peaceful historical setting, surrounded by natural beauty and with access to everything the north of the island has to offer. Its authentic character, traditional architecture, and historic value make this property much more than a home —it’s a legacy.
