Carrer Del Convent
The everyday rhythm of Pollença just beyond the door
Set in the historic heart of Pollença, this three-bedroom Mallorcan home pairs traditional architecture with a lighter, contemporary touch. A courtyard with a plunge pool opens off the living space, an artisan iron staircase leads to the rooftop, and the town’s squares and cafés are just beyond the door.

The design is centred around the relationship between the home and its outdoor spaces. The open-plan ground floor creates a natural flow between living, dining and the courtyard, where the plunge pool, custom seating and outdoor shower form a private extension of the interiors. A wood-burning stove and carefully considered window seat bring intimacy back into the living space, while the rooftop terrace offers a contrasting sense of openness, with panoramic views across Pollença and towards Puig de Maria. Throughout, the palette and proportions keep the atmosphere relaxed, allowing the architecture and landscape to remain the focus.
About the neighbourhood
Pollença is one of northern Mallorca’s most characterful towns, set beneath the Serra de Tramuntana and shaped by centuries of Mallorcan history. At its centre, the atmospheric Plaça Major brings together cafés, restaurants and local life, with the weekly market adding colour to the town each Sunday. The surrounding landscape opens towards the mountains and countryside, while Puerto Pollença and the Mediterranean coast are within easy reach. From the town, the winding roads lead towards some of Mallorca’s most celebrated landscapes, including the dramatic peninsula of Cap de Formentor.
Design direction
The renovation was guided by a respect for the home’s original character, carefully introducing a contemporary layer without losing its Mallorcan identity. Hand-crafted elements bring particular distinction, from the bespoke kitchen to the artisan iron staircase leading towards the rooftop. Traditional character sits alongside refined updates throughout, creating a sense of continuity between what belongs to the house’s past and the way it is lived in today.
