Casa Margarita, Spain: 1890s Charm, Reinvented for 2025
a townhouse tucked into the sleepy,
sun-drenched folds of Santa Margalida, Mallorca
You know how some homes try really hard to impress you?
This one doesn’t have to. Casa Margarita is the kind of place that knows exactly who it is — a 19th-century townhouse in
Mallorca that’s aged gracefully, got a bit of work done (very tastefully), and now feels like the grown-up version of your Mediterranean summer dreams.
Tucked into the postcard-pretty town of Santa Margalida, this fully renovated beauty was originally built in 1890 — and thankfully, nobody decided to scrub the soul out of it.
Stone walls? Still here.
Timber beams? You bet.
But now they sit next to sleek bathroom fixtures, a saltwater pool, and a guesthouse that’s basically a very chic bonus level.
Old Bones, New Attitude
Casa Margarita pulls off that rare combination of rustic and refined.
You walk in and get the sense that someone with excellent taste and zero design ego lives here. The furniture was custom-designed by the developers at Rôck&Villa and handcrafted by local artisans — which makes everything feel polished without being precious.
The open-space master suite is the kind of room you book on holiday, then spend the next six months trying to recreate at home.
And let’s talk about the layout: three main bedrooms in the house, plus a fully detached guesthouse with its own bathroom.
Translation? You can host guests or run a remote office.
Details That Matter (and Make Life Easier)
This isn’t one of those renovations that looks pretty but forgets you actually live in a house. You’ve got:
A saltwater pool that doesn’t smell like you’ve taken a dip in salad dressing
Villeroy & Boch and GESSI fixtures that make every bathroom feel like a boutique hotel
Floor heating where it counts
An integrated osmosis system so you can skip the bottled water
Built-in Bluetooth speakers in the living/dining room because playlists matter
And yes, it’s all cooled and heated with a Panasonic split system, so no matter what the Balearic weather is doing, you’re sorted.
Five Minutes from Sand and Sangria
Santa Margalida isn’t just charming — it’s strategic. You’re only a short drive from Playa del Muro, one of Mallorca’s most gorgeous beaches (you’ll recognize it from at least five “summer moodboard” Pins). So whether you’re a beach lounger, bike explorer, or someone who just wants to sip vermouth somewhere picturesque, the location delivers.
Care to Stay Forever?
Just… asking for a Friend.
Casa Margarita isn’t just a house — it’s a vibe.
A very livable, very beautiful vibe with architectural heritage, locally designed everything, and a garden that doubles as a mind, body and soul reset button.
It’s Mallorca at its most magnetic.
And whether you’re browsing or buying, this one’s worth mentally moving into.

Over to You—Could You Live Here?
Alright, I’ve said my piece.
Now it’s your turn.
Would you turn the guesthouse into a creative studio?
Host sun-drenched garden parties on the regular?
Or just float in the saltwater pool pretending you’re on the cover of a design magazine?
