Finca to Renovate in the Hills near Arta

This charming finca, completed in 1935, is situated on an expansive 160,000 m2 plot in the hills near Arta, offering serene views of the Sant Salvador monastery. The property comprises three parcels, with the largest hosting three buildings totaling 222 m2 of constructed area, primed for renovation. The existing layout features four bedrooms and two bathrooms, with the potential for customization left to the new owner as no project has been submitted yet. Renovation costs are estimated at around 900,000 Euro, depending on the desired specifications. The finca benefits from a private well for water supply, while electricity will need to be generated via solar power.

Despite its proximity to town, the finca offers absolute tranquility and privacy on its own mountain. The opportunity to rebuild on the original foundations, with the same footprint, is possible with the appropriate permissions, though any extensions would require an architects consultation. This property promises an idyllic retreat with the charm of historical significance and the potential for modern luxury.

Nestled in the northeast of Mallorca, the traditional town of Arta is set in a sprawling valley at the base of a small mountain. The town center largely converted to a pedestrian zone, is dominated by the imposing Santuari Sant Salvador, a major local attraction. Originally built in the 14th century and reconstructed in the 19th, this holy sanctuary and its walls offer a glimpse into the past.

The region is renowned for its pottery and basket weaving, with archaeological finds like the Talayot settlement Ses Paisses revealing woven fibers, indicating these crafts are among the oldest on the island. Visitors can enjoy breathtaking views along the fortifications of the Islamic castle Almudaina d’Artà and explore nearby beaches and the coastal caves Cuevas dArtà. Arta hosts two popular markets on Tuesday mornings, one for general goods and another specializing in crafts, attracting both locals and tourists alike. Palma can be reached in about an hour by car.
