An Idyllic House in Spain with a Perfect Mix of Old and New



I am absolutely in love with this house,
it used to be an oil mill in Mallorca, Spain in the 1700s.
You could still see the Mallorcan limestone masonry wall
which is so charming and the arcs are still there and even the stone stairs which leads to nowhere is there too.
Truly a clever mix of old and new the furniture pieces are that of vintage industrial style and a few modern touches especially the necessary convenience of modern appliances makes this house perfect for me.
