Villa for rent in Es Mercadal, Menorca

This terraced villa with sustainable architecture and modern design for rent, available from January 1, in the town of Es Mercadal, in the north of the island of Menorca.

This 358 m² villa sits on a 603 m² plot consisting of four identical rectangular volumes descending the steep terrain. Photographer Joan Guillamat's photos show construction materials such as concrete blocks, beam and vault ceilings, and local limestone in both the pool area and the façade, providing excellent thermal insulation in climates like Menorca's. It is a completely sustainable home.

The property is spread over two floors. It features three spacious bedrooms on the ground floor, a living room with a fully equipped open kitchen on the first floor, a very large exterior terrace, and a saltwater pool. It also features a sustainable, water-efficient garden.

Large floor-to-ceiling sliding doors with aluminum frames allow plenty of natural light to enter. Strategically placed horizontal windows above the sliding doors further enhance the lighting.

Exterior, there are various covered and uncovered spaces to enjoy the fresh air.

The living area is a unique open-plan space, with the open-plan kitchen on one side, the dining room in the centre, and the living area on the other. Each bedroom has its own private terrace with views of the surrounding lush landscape and the Mediterranean Sea.

Sustainability strategies include natural cross-ventilation, ceiling fans, and photovoltaic panels on the roof. The bathrooms combine diverse materials, such as white tiles with terracotta-colored grout and wood cabinetry.

An ideal property for year-round living or extended stays with family and/or friends.
