Exceptionally grand 17th century manor house

The “Finca Gallo San José,” listed for sale by Gould Heinz & Lang property consultants Ibiza, presents a one-of-a-kind property in close proximity to San José village. Its grandeur and the allure of the original Finca and its supplementary buildings are truly captivating. This property encompasses approximately 15,000 sqm of land, featuring a total built area of around 1,661 sqm. The estate is divided into the primary house, an ancient Finca, a guest house with four bedrooms and a communal area, an independent guest apartment, a swimming pool with an outdoor kitchen, and a tennis court. It’s an idyllic estate ideally suited for an extended family or multiple families looking to reside together.

Accessing the property is straightforward and secure, with a paved road leading to it. The final 450 metres before reaching the estate involve driving on an unpaved road. The property is entered through a private driveway, secured by a gate. There are ample parking options on the premises, along with a sizable garage.

From the parking area, a short walk takes you to the entrance of the main house, ascending a set of steps. Additionally, the substantial guest house is located just a few meters from the parking area.

Upon entering the main house, you step into a spacious entrance area graced by high wooden beamed ceilings. Adjacent to this space is a cozy sitting area with an open fireplace. To the right of the entrance, you’ll find a small room (with lower ceilings) suitable for use as a TV room or office. Proceeding through this room leads to a sizable bathroom (with lower ceiling height). Returning to the entrance foyer, two staircases ascend to the upper floors housing the bedrooms. On the ground floor, there’s a roomy kitchen with access to a covered terrace for dining and direct access to the swimming pool and outdoor area. A dining room and a compact bar complete the ground floor. On the upper levels, there are four bedrooms, each with its private bathroom. The master bedroom at the top of the Finca faces south and boasts a spacious sun terrace that also provides direct access to the pool area. Some areas within the Finca feature original wooden beams and low ceilings, which may necessitate consultation with an architect or engineer regarding potential alterations to these structural elements.

The expansive guest house comprises four double bedrooms, each equipped with private bathrooms and separate entrances. A covered walkway leads to the four bedrooms, terminating at the communal room, which features a pool table, a seating area with a fireplace, and a kitchen. Additionally, there’s a charming small courtyard that enhances the Mediterranean ambiance of the guest house.

The guest apartment is situated atop the hill, not far from the main Finca bedroom. It comprises a spacious, fully-equipped kitchen, a generous bedroom, and a large bathroom featuring a corner bathtub.

The fenced plot, spanning approximately 15,024 sqm, offers ample space for recreational activities and relaxation. Adjacent to the main house’s kitchen, you’ll discover a 60-square-metre swimming pool. Surrounding the pool, there are verdant lawns and ample room for sun loungers. A partially covered dining area with a barbecue corner and a pergola completes the outdoor space. A notable highlight of this property is the private tennis court.

The house is supplied with water and electricity by public providers. An additional water cistern ensures a continuous water supply in case of interruptions. Sewage disposal is managed through a private sewage tank. Individual air conditioning units (hot/cold) are available in the bedrooms. High-speed internet is accessible, with the potential for a fiber optic connection to be explored.

The Finca is conveniently located just a 3-minute drive from San José village. The airport is reachable within approximately 13 minutes by car, while Ibiza town is a 20-minute drive away. The nearest beaches, Cala Jondal and Cala Tarida, are both a 15-minute drive.
