About the Property
In Mahón, a residence of about 600 m² built around a former 16th-century mill. In the past, there were dozens of windmills in Mahón on the hills surrounding the harbor, facing the open sea to catch a wind that nothing on this coast ever truly stops. They formed a sort of high belt above the city, visible from the sea even before the houses came into view.

In Mahón, a residence of about 600 m² built around a former 16th-century mill. In the past, there were dozens of windmills in Mahón on the hills surrounding the harbor, facing the open sea to catch a wind that nothing on this coast ever truly stops. They formed a sort of high belt above the city, visible from the sea even before the houses came into view.
Today, only a handful remain, scattered throughout the urban landscape, absorbed by more recent buildings that have preserved them as one might preserve a landmark. This one has kept its tower intact, the only visible remnant of a landscape that Mahón has largely lost, but whose memory this house alone continues to carry.
Located in Maó, Menorca’s vibrant capital, this property offers convenient access to Menorca Airport (8 min), Maó Port, and local train and bus connections. The area features fine dining, upscale shopping, and cultural landmarks such as Museu de Menorca. Residents enjoy proximity to outdoor activities and prestigious international and private schools, balancing island charm with modern amenities.
