Property search unearths village house with lush secret garden in Mallorca

Although Shortcuts Property Search are not estate agents and have no properties to sell, we are sometimes asked by former property search clients if we can offer marketing support for their properties using our PR and media activity. We are usually more than happy to help – especially as they are all in outstanding locations and of a high standard.

One such property is this lovely and private village house just ten minutes from Palma.  The price has recently been reduced to €1.2m for a quick sale so call or email us to find out more or to view it.  Briefly, the house is set in 3.69 acres of gorgeous and well cared for lush gardens and was recently featured in Country Life magazine.  There are several areas designed to offer sunshine or shade, with water features and swimming pool.

The house would be perfect as a holiday home or to live in permanently as everyting in the village stays open all year.

It has a large kitchen, sitting room with dining area, which leads to a shady dining terrace, three ensuite bedrooms and an office / bedroom on the ground level, and a one bedroom self contained apartment above with a roof terrace with fantastic 360 degree views of the mountains and sea.

The tranquil village of Genova has several very good restaurants, a bakery, food stores and cafes all within a few minutes easy stroll and offers a Spanish lifestyle and experience in a cosmopolitan and eclectic environment.  Excellent international schools nearby and easy access to the road network connecting the village to the rest of the island.
