An ancient finca reimagined, Can San Mateo blends old-world charm with contemporary elegance. Set in one of Ibiza’s north-west valleys, this five-bedroom villa has been transformed by architect Pascal Cheikh Djavadi with interior design by Dymfy Erens. The original farmhouse and modern extension merge historical details with cutting-edge technology. A marble-clad kitchen, bold dining space and gallery-like lounge create a striking aesthetic. Outdoors, a sleek 17-meter pool contrasts with rugged stone walls and lush gardens. Each tranquil bedroom features organic tones and bespoke finishes, with a standout principal suite bathed in natural light. A secluded sanctuary of design and serenity for sale via Domus Nova.

“We are going to buy a twelfth century monastery” declared the subject line of an email from a longtime client. This one just so happened to be located next door to a multi-year project that we have worked on for nearly a decade in the south of France. Though the monks had long since left the premises, the property retained much of its original character. Our mission was to unwind some of the modern alterations that had occured when a kitchen and baths were added– and insert something simpler and less disruptive. Ultimately putting the building back into service with a purpose closer to the original as a creative refuge and housing for artists in conjunction with Saint Joseph’s Arts Foundation.
