Leading Spanish home builder Taylor Wimpey España has unveiled its newest Mallorca development. Compass, located on the south-eastern side of the island, will offer two-bedroom, two-bathroom apartments just a kilometre from the beach.
Mallorca has been a firm favourite with holidaymakers and second home buyers from the UK for years. The latest Balearic Island visitor numbers from Spain’s National Statistics Agency (INE) show 182,833 arrivals in November 2019 and 13,555,994 over the course of the year. During November, visitor numbers were highest from Germany followed by those from the UK.
Tourists are drawn to Mallorca for a range of reasons – its superb climate, picturesque beaches, Michelin-star restaurants and the immense array of sporting facilities on offer. Cycling and Mallorca go hand in hand and the island is also home to some excellent golf courses.
Compass is located just a short distance from the 18-hole Vall d´Or course, in the lovely Cala d’Or area. It is close to a number of stunningly beautiful coves, including Cala Mondragó (declared a National Park), Calo d´Es Pou and Cala Esmeralda, all of which are famed for their crystal-clear waters.
“We are delighted to be launching Compass so early in 2020. This is the time of year when most Brits are busy planning and booking their summer holidays and dreaming of a better life in the sun. Compass turns that dream into an affordable reality.”
Marc Pritchard, Sales and Marketing Director of Taylor Wimpey España
Two-bedroom apartments at Compass are priced from €256,000 plus VAT. Each home includes direct access to private terraces or balconies from each bedroom, as well as the living room. Apartments on the ground floor enjoy private porches and gardens, while all homes enjoy natural light in both bathrooms. Each apartment also has its own parking space and storeroom, for maximum convenience. There are landscaped gardens, swimming pools and some lovely views down to the harbour from select apartments.
The homes are surprisingly affordable at a time when Mallorca property prices have been rising steeply. Tinsa reports a surge in property prices of 10.7% for Palma de Mallorca in the year from Q4 2018 to Q4 2019, following a rise of 9.5% the previous year. This trend was reflected across many of the island’s most sought-after locations.
“2019 saw Mallorca’s property market perform strongly, boosted by a healthy demand from second home buyers. This level of performance means that those who buy at the right time can enjoy the potential for steady capital growth, as well as the lifestyle benefits of owning a holiday home in Mallorca.”
