Description: Set between the iconic villages of Deià and Valldemossa, Can Calo is a historic gem originally built by Archduke Luis Salvador in the 1880s around an ancient chapel. The home is an airy oasis of peace and tranquility with breathtaking views along the majestic North-West Coast.

Can Calo is the only home along this coast in this price range with a tennis court, pool and sea and sunset views.

History: The Archduke, a visionary conservationist, acquired land from Valldemossa to Deià, restoring nearby estates such as Miramar and Son Marroig. He envisioned Can Calo as a retreat for his guests, and today, this meticulously restored home invites a new owner to revel in its tranquil beauty, storied past, and timeless elegance.

Indoor layout: Step inside and be greeted by the grandeur of the central hall, which flows into spacious living areas, each filled with natural light and boasting panoramic sea views. Whether it’s relaxing in the elegant lounges, diving into a book in the library, or enjoying the music room, each space is designed to make the most of the stunning surroundings. The heart of the home is a large dining area, perfect for entertaining, adjacent to a custom-made Italian kitchen with marble floors and a cozy breakfast nook. The main house features six en-suite bedrooms, each equipped with air conditioning, radiators, and ample wardrobe space, while a separate guest house includes two additional en-suite bedrooms, a fully-equipped kitchen, and its own dining area.

Outdoor layout: Can Calo’s outdoor spaces are equally enchanting. Expansive terraces invite you to dine alfresco while taking in the spectacular sunsets, and the refreshing sea breeze enhances every moment spent poolside or on the private tennis court. A beautifully landscaped garden leads down to the pool area, complete with leisure facilities. Here, you’ll find a lounge, gym, sauna, and cinema room, creating the perfect balance of activity and relaxation.

For outdoor dining, options abound. A vast terrace hosts a grand dining table with the best views of the sunset, while an intimate Mallorquín bread oven and barbecue area near the guest house provide a charming setting for casual gatherings. On a secluded terrace, a hot tub awaits, surrounded by sun decks for a truly private retreat.

The estate’s character shines through in the original open courtyard, where birds sing by the tranquil water fountain. Tucked into the landscape are numerous quiet spots, perfect for reading or reflection under the shade of olive trees. Practical features include a carriageway drive, generous parking, a backup generator, and an extensive water supply to support the estate’s vast grounds.

Our three favourite things about the house: The best sunset location in the heart of the Serra de Tramuntana mountains close to the emblematic rock with a hole: Sa Foradada. All day sun. Perfect for entertaining and features a gym, sauna and cinema room.

Perfect for: Families who enjoy entertaining and the luxury of space, a discerning visionary seeking to create the ideal Tramuntana retreat.
