Classic House Renovation – Playa de Palma

Project Overview – House Renovation in Playa de Palma

This project involved the renovation and modernisation of a classic property in Playa de Palma, Mallorca, a well-known coastal area with a mix of residential and holiday homes.

The primary objective was to modernise the property, create a lighter interior atmosphere, and improve the spatial layout of the outdoor areas, transforming the house into a more functional and comfortable living environment.

Initial Condition and Assessment

The property required a complete technical and visual upgrade.

Key challenges included outdated electrical systems, absence of air conditioning, and ageing garden installations, which were no longer functioning correctly and in some cases caused technical issues such as short circuits.

In addition, the basement area suffered from high humidity levels, requiring specific solutions to improve indoor conditions and long-term usability.

Renovation Scope and Upgrades

The project included a full range of interior, technical, and exterior improvements:

complete repainting of interior and exterior surfaces
full renewal of electrical wiring and installation of a new distribution board
installation of air conditioning throughout the property
implementation of humidity control and anti-limescale systems
renovation and repainting of doors and built-in wardrobes
conversion of a study room into an additional bedroom with en-suite bathroom
installation of new kitchen appliances, including refrigerator
furnishing and styling of living spaces, including new sofa and lighting
Reupholstered classic chairs

In addition, the main bathroom was fully renovated to improve both functionality and spatial perception.

The existing shower cabin was removed and replaced with a new walk-in shower, constructed using large-format stone-effect tiles with integrated drainage. A full-height glass partition (mampara) was installed to create a more open and spacious feel, while also allowing the shower area to be expanded.

The design was carefully aligned with the existing wall tiles to ensure visual consistency throughout the bathroom.
