The Mallorcan market town of Pollensa has traditionally attracted buyers from both Germany and the UK. A 40 minute drive from Palma's International airport, the area is popular for good beaches, access to the mountains, and the stunning 9-hole golf course which offers fabulous sea views.
Stone-built farmhouses of this kind are scattered througout the gently rolling countryside which surrounds the town and this one in particular offers panoramic views across the mountainside.
The main house has 2 bedrooms, one with a private terrace while an independent guest house has its own double bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and living room. Other features include a large swimming pool and barbecue area and the current owners have created well kept Mediterranean gardens.
