With an impressive facade and sitting proudly on the Estiradors Square in Soller, Can Ballester takes its name from the internationally acclaimed Professor Ballester. This typical Mallorquin mansion house, which was lovingly restored to its current glory, luxury and comfort, was the meteorology professor’s home since birth.

The location is both quiet and convenient as its a mere 200 meters from Soller’s main square. Most of its 6 bedrooms face the outskirts of the village and the impressive Tramuntana mountains.

Most of the original features of the house have been retained, including the ceiling moldings, ornate staircase and ceramic tile floors.  With windows on all sides, the villa is very light and sunny and this is also reflected in the decor – lots of shades of white, natural stone, timber, indoor plants and soft furnishings in soft Mediterranean colours complete the relaxed holiday ambience of Ca´n Ballester.

The heart of the house is its kitchen, an open plan generous space that invites one to prepare and cook meals and enjoy them with friends and family at the dining table or outdoors on the verandah.

Two separate corners on the ground floor mean that there are two sitting areas, both of them with TVs and one with a fireplace.  The villa is filled with books, DVDs and games to play – so plenty to occupy all ages.

Can Ballester offers something rare in the centre of Soller, a garden and a swimming pool perfect for relaxing and sun bathing, barbecuing and watching the sun go down behind the mountains.  The villa also has parking for 2 small/medium cars on site.

The first floor offers another relaxed sitting area with books and a TV.  This floor has 4 double bedrooms as well as 3 bathrooms. The rooms can be prepared with either double or twin beds.

The top floor has a working space overlooking the rooftops of the village, a small kitchen perfect for coffee and tea preparation in the morning and two stunning and very spacious master bedrooms, each with their own full ensuite bathroom and sitting area.

The basement of the house is equipped with a laundry room – washing machine, dryer, sink, iron/ironing board and drying rack.

It´s only a short stroll from  Ca´n Ballester to the main square of Soller, where you are spoilt for choice  – cafes, restaurants, several bakeries and the highlight of the local week – the Saturday farmers market!
