Most expensive property of Spain sold in Mallorca
The most expensive estate of Spain located at Pollensa Bay (Noth of Mallorca) has been sold in 2011. Sa Fortaleza is a 22-acre estate in the bay of Pollenca on Mallorca’s northerly coastline. The English owners placed the house and grounds on the market with a guide price of €125 million (£99m).
The property dates back to 1622 when a fortress was built to serve as base for the defence of the bay. Throughout most of the 20th century, it was owned by the Argentine painter, Roberto Ramauge except during the Spanish civil war when it was confiscated by the Spanish government to be used as a military zone. Today, the property has 17 bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms. Access is entirely private down its own drive.
Puerto Pollensa is located in the North of Mallorca with a total population of about 20,000 and has one of the richest histories in the Mediterranean Sea. Fenicians, romans and arabs, etc, passed through their ports.
