In the quiet, fertile valley of Orient, municipality of Bunyola, lies Ca Na Ferrera, a traditional Mallorcan manor house with origins dating back to the 18th century. The valley is part of the Serra de Tramuntana, which is protected as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and has preserved its original rural character to this day. The estate is surrounded by forest, oriented to the south, and offers a panoramic view over the entire valley.
The project involves the careful restoration and reconstruction of the manor house. The historical arrangement of several connected buildings with thatched roofs will be restored, including the main house and the former caretaker’s house. A timeless, contemporary residence with approximately 720 m² of living space, 4 to 6 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, as well as a guest toilet, is to be created. The plot covers approximately 570,000 m².
The ground floor is grouped around an impressive entrance hall with a central staircase. One wing houses the open living and dining area with views of the courtyard. Its fireplace is aligned with the restored interior patio, where the original oil mill (Tafona) of the manor remains intact. Other highlights include a library with fireplace and a master suite with its own fireplace and natural stone terrace. Spacious terraces and landscaped gardens open up to the surrounding landscape.
In choosing the materials, the project adheres to regional tradition. Natural stone from Binissalem, Santanyà or Marès is planned; historical roof tiles, lime plaster, wide oak beams and handmade wooden carpentry with traditional Mallorcan window frames are also included. In addition, black-coated steel-glass elements serve as a modern accent.
Location: The property is secluded and quiet in the Orient Valley, but still easily accessible. Sóller is about 18 km away, Deià about 27 km and the Palma Airport about 33 km.
