Santa Gertrudis De Fruitera, Ibiza, Balearic Islands, Spain

Can Rich is an old farmhouse in the centre of Ibiza, owned for generations by a local Ibicenco family. In 2025, Blakstad has brought it into a new chapter: restoring original architecture, enlarging light-filled spaces, and blending heritage with luxury living. South-west facing, it sits on a large plot framed by olive and citrus trees, with campo views at ground level and rare upper-floor views toward Dalt Vila and the sea.



Picture early mornings walking into Santa Gertrudis for a coffee, afternoons gardening among olive trees, evenings cooking together then gathering on the terrace under stars. Here, mountain biking and hiking are weekend rituals. Winters are lived as deeply as summers. It's a home where nature, family, and calm rhythms matter as much as architecture and design.



Inside, old meets new with intention. Original stone walls and traditional sabina beams stay, while windows and doors are enlarged to bring in light. Rooms flow naturally: generous living and dining spaces, a kitchen built for shared meals, multiple reception areas. The bedrooms are private and bright. Upstairs features a room with views across to Dalt Vila and glimpses of the sea - rare for a home in this central location.



The plot is generous and beautiful: mature olive groves, citrus trees, terraces that feel settled and private. Outdoors, you'll find space to grow things, to dine, to wander. The southwest orientation gives long evenings, sunsets that linger. All of this while being only a 25-minute walk (or 10-minute bike ride) into Santa Gertrudis, so the village is never far.
