CI-002 Self-Sufficient Country House in Northern Ciutadella, Menorca

Set in a rural setting in the northern part of Ciutadella, this country house offers the peace of living surrounded by nature without giving up easy access to the city. It is about 3 km from Cala Morell and 3.5 km from the Ciutadella industrial estate, a location that combines privacy, good connections and easy access to all amenities.

Built in 1999, the home has a built area of around 210 m², laid out entirely on one level on a plot of 1,569 m².

Its design draws on the old Menorcan "bouers" or country farmhouses, faithfully reproducing the style of these traditional rural buildings, known for their functionality, spaciousness and excellent adaptation to the island's climate. Although not an old building, its architecture keeps the character and essence of traditional Menorcan homes.

The interior layout has been designed for comfort and space. It has a bright living-dining room with fireplace, a separate kitchen, four double bedrooms and two full bathrooms. A second fireplace in the sleeping area creates a warm, cosy atmosphere during the winter months, allowing the home to be enjoyed all year round.

One of the most pleasant spaces on the property is its large porch, an ideal spot to relax and enjoy the surroundings. From here you can reach a second, independent outdoor kitchen with a barbecue area, perfect for family gatherings or meals with friends, making the most of Menorca's outdoor lifestyle.

The plot, of 1,569 m², offers a private and peaceful setting, surrounded by the characteristic Menorcan countryside.

One of the standout features of this property is its energy self-sufficiency. The home has a recently installed solar panel system with lithium batteries, providing enough power for a family's typical consumption. A wind turbine acts as backup, though according to the owners it has rarely been needed thanks to the excellent performance of the solar installation. This allows the home to run almost entirely independent of the grid, with the resulting savings and sustainability.

Water is supplied via a communal well, shared with only three other properties, a common solution for this type of rural estate.

Although the house sits in the northern part of the island, it faces due south, ensuring excellent natural light throughout the day. On clear days, the mountains of Mallorca can even be seen from the porch on the horizon, making every sunset feel special.

This property brings together many of the qualities sought by those wanting the authentic Menorcan lifestyle: space, privacy, architecture inspired by tradition, energy independence and an excellent location, very close to both Ciutadella and some of the most beautiful coves on the north coast.

An ideal home both as a permanent residence and for long stays in Menorca, enjoying country living with every comfort.
