The property’s exterior is a stunning tribute to Mallorcan architecture. The textured stonework is softened by blush-toned stucco, while traditional olive-green wooden shutters frame the windows with timeless charm.

The patio also features a crystal-clear, onyx green pool designed with straight lines, contrasting the historic architecture of the townhouse and the patio.
