Deià, Mallorca, Balearic Islands, Spain

Authentic Deià homes such as S'Escapada rarely come on the market. Built by Tony Juncosa, an architect associated with some of Deià's most iconic homes, S'Escapada sits in a secluded, private area just a pleasant 10-minute walk from the village with wonderful views up to the mountains and down across the valley to the dramatic coastline. Palma de Mallorca and the airport are a 45-50 minute drive.

Indoor layout: S'Escapada is a classic traditional Deià home with four bedrooms, three bathrooms and a guest WC.

Outdoor layout: S'Escapada's garden is mature and bursting with citrus, fig and magnificent avocado trees. The freshwater pool can be filled by the charming torrent that runs close by this characterful home. There are plenty of outdoor areas and terraces in which to enjoy the shade, read, write, paint the magnificent landscape or simply contemplate the mysteries of existence. S'Escapada offers parking for at least five cars.

What we love: S'Escapada is a true Deià home loved by its owners for more than 30 years and filled with stories. It's perfect for a Deià aficionado with a creative bent who loves the village but values their peace and quiet.

What the owners love: The home has hosted many dinner parties over the years and has always been a place for the owners to connect with their cherished friends in Deià.

What you should know: Because of its position, S'Escapada receives fewer hours of sunlight in the colder months.
