When the founder of Dusty Deco renovates a 1940s townhouse in Porto Cristo's historic centre, you get something rather special. Lina Kjellvertz has turned Casa Coral into a lesson in how traditional Mallorcan architecture works with contemporary sensibility.
The result is quietly poetic rather than showy: original hydraulic tiles, exposed beams, a sculptural stone washbasin, all held together by soft natural tones and Mediterranean light flooding through spaces with ceilings reaching 5.4 metres.
The 19 m² patio sits at the heart of everything. It's a courtyard that shows how light and air move through the house, connecting the open kitchen and dining area to three bedrooms and the bathroom.
The patio flows seamlessly into a BBQ area, which connects back to the kitchen where a gas stove and air conditioning provide the practical comfort you'd expect. Up top, a 10 m² roof terrace offers a private retreat above the old town's rooftops.

Here's where it gets interesting for rental income:
One bedroom includes a sleeping loft, which brings the total to four double beds and eight sleeping places.
That's genuine capacity for group bookings or extended family stays, not just aspirational marketing.
The vintage furnishings, carefully balanced throughout each room, give the property that warm maritime atmosphere people actually pay extra for when booking coastal accommodation. Use the Rental Yield Calculator to see what properties with this design pedigree and sleeping capacity generate in Porto Cristo; townhouses with proper character and proximity to the sea (three minutes on foot) tend to perform well during peak season.
The restoration preserved everything worth keeping: handcrafted tiles, built-in elements, restored wood details. The open fireplace anchors the living room.
It's elegant without feeling untouchable, which matters if you're planning to rent it out or live in it year-round. The single bathroom might seem limiting for eight sleeping places, but the layout and preserved architectural details compensate; you're not dealing with a generic renovation here.
Porto Cristo's old town centre retains authenticity that's increasingly rare on Mallorca's coast. The harbour, fishing port, and traditional character haven't been completely overtaken by tourism development.
You're close to the Coves del Drac, the beaches, and the marina, but the historic centre stays relatively calm. The garage and storage room add practical value often missing from old town properties.
At €540,000, you're paying for design execution and location. The Dusty Deco provenance adds appeal for the design-conscious rental market, which translates to higher nightly rates and better occupancy.
Spain's purchase costs typically add 10-12% on top of the sale price, so use the Total Property Cost Calculator to understand the full outlay including taxes, notary fees, and registration costs. The ca. 1940 construction year with modern systems means you're getting period character without the structural headaches of truly ancient properties.
Tip:
You’ll need to ask about the property’s Energy Performance Certificate (EPC or Certificado de Eficiencia Energética - CEE).
The general requirement for an EPC applies when selling or renting a property, but several specific exceptions do exist, as defined by Spanish law (Royal Decree 235/2013). This property is in an historic area so it may be exempt.
BUT… (there’s always a big one), from January 1, 2030, all properties for sale or rent, in Spain, will need to meet a minimum 'E' energy rating, with the minimum rising to 'D' by 2033.
Properties with an 'F' or 'G' rating will need upgrades to be legally marketable, meaning some currently exempt properties may require a certificate and improvements in the future if they are to be sold or rented. Use this to your advantage when negotiations start.
