Traditional Country Estate In Formentera With Farmhouse, Annexes And Expansion Potential

Set in a wonderfully quiet corner of Formentera, surrounded by authentic Mediterranean landscape and close to the sea, this traditional country estate offers a rare opportunity to create a bespoke home on a large rustic plot of approximately 30,000 m².

At the heart of the property stands an original casa payesa dating back to the late 19th century, later extended to include two annex buildings. The existing structures preserve the charm of Formentera’s rural architecture – thick stone walls, simple volumes, blue-painted woodwork and generous outdoor terraces – and are ready to be reimagined into a contemporary countryside retreat.

According to the available technical and planning documentation, the property still has considerable development capacity, allowing the future owner to unlock its full potential through a well-designed refurbishment and extension project.

Key features
• Approx. 30,010 m² of rustic land in a peaceful rural area of Formentera
• Traditional casa payesa plus two annexes, forming a small ensemble of buildings
• Current built area of around 189 m² (main house and annexes)
• Possibility to increase the built area up to approx. 400 m² on the ground floor, subject to planning regulations and permits
• Practically flat plot with open views over the surrounding countryside and the sea line in the distance
• Natural, untamed grounds offering a blank canvas for a bespoke landscaping project
• Attractive setting close to the island of Formentera coastline

Condition and potential

The main house and annexes are in need of full refurbishment: layout, installations and finishes must be completely updated. The outdoor areas have not been landscaped or maintained in recent years, which enhances the feeling of a “blank canvas” for a new owner wishing to design their own Mediterranean retreat in Formentera.
For a buyer looking for a project rather than a turnkey villa, this estate combines:
• authentic island character,
• a substantial landholding, and
• clear scope for value creation through renovation and extension,
in one of the most desirable islands in the Mediterranean.
