17TH-CENTURY IBIZAN COUNTRY HOUSE WITH POOL AND TENNIS COURT IN SAN JOSÉ (ref.1605)

A historic Ibicencan finca with architectural depth and total clarity for its renovation

Cas Berris is a 17th-century estate of great breadth, located on 12,000 m² of private land less than a kilometer from the center of San José. Its architecture is clearly Ibicencan: limewashed volumes, deep arches, shaded galleries, and exposed wooden beams that establish a measured relationship between light, mass, and landscape. The images show a property defined more by its structure than by finishes, where proportion, rhythm, and materiality are the true protagonists.

The property has a total of 600 m² of interior living space, complemented by more than 1,200 m² of outdoor spaces including open-air structures, terraces, a swimming pool, and a tennis court.

The finca offers exceptional renovation potential. Thick walls, spacious rooms, and a sequence of courtyards and terraces provide an uncommon base for a design-guided transformation, capable of respecting the historic character of the ensemble while simultaneously introducing a contemporary spatial language.

Currently, the property is in the final phase of its legalization process. Once the legalization certificate is issued, the ensemble will be completely legal and a full-scale renovation project can be undertaken with total urban planning security, positioning Cas Berris as a long-term architectural asset rather than a simple, punctual renovation.

Architecture and layout

The surface is distributed across four independent buildings, each with its own identity and relation to the land.

The first building, located at the entrance of the finca, is a spacious annex that integrates two double garages, four en-suite bedrooms, and a large leisure and play area. A sunken living room with an original fireplace unfolds beneath a sequence of repeated arches, generating depth and a sense of interior circulation.

The main house is arranged on two levels and features multiple accesses and terraces. Inside, it is articulated through winding corridors, traditional wooden stairs, and rooms defined by exposed-beam ceilings. Five bedrooms and six bathrooms distribute alongside a library, informal living areas, and a traditional kitchen that opens directly to the gardens and the pool terraces. Interior courtyards and shaded galleries create transitional spaces, while elevated terraces offer open views of the rural surroundings.

Slightly elevated in relation to the main house is a one-bedroom independent cottage, discreet in scale and location, suitable as staff accommodation or as a guest suite.

Next to the pool sits a small house with a kitchen and outdoor dining area, conceived as a summer pavilion and oriented toward outdoor living more than enclosure.

Outdoor spaces

The plot is mature and terraced, with established trees and vegetation that generate natural privacy and separation between the buildings. A large lawn surrounds the 50 m² pool, visible from both the main house terraces and the outdoor dining pavilion. Covered terraces and shaded living areas extend the habitable spaces to the exterior, reinforcing the link between architecture and landscape.

Access is via electric gates and a long private driveway. In addition to the garages, there is ample exterior parking space. A tennis court is integrated discreetly within the finca, without dominating the ensemble.

In 2025 a new and extensive solar panel system was installed. This significant improvement is expected to reduce electricity costs by up to 50%.
