The Manacor estate of Es Fangar is back on the market for 87 million euros
It is worth remembering that the estate still belongs to the German businessman Peter Eisenmann, who bought it for just over 13 million euros in 2001.
The Es Fangar estate in Son Macià (1,000 hectares in the Manacor area bordering Felanitx) has gone back on the market, this time for a slightly lower price than a few years ago. "The most expensive mansion in Mallorca," as various European media outlets have called it recently, is returning to the real estate market for 87 million euros (approximately 100 million dollars). It's worth noting that the estate still belongs to German businessman Peter Eisenmann, who bought it for just over 13 million euros in 2001 from the Bonnín-Armstrong family. After renovations, the planting of vineyards, and the creation of a winery (which had to be built off-site, initially unsuccessfully attempting to locate in the Manacor industrial park), and controversies surrounding the closure of several public roads crossing the estate and passing in front of the houses, financial difficulties led to its sale.
In 2020, Eisenmann put Es Fangar up for sale for €100 million, at €100,000 per hectare. This estate, dedicated to organic farming with wine production, breeding purebred horses, and organizing equestrian championships, occupies more than 0.27% of the island's surface area, covering over 1,000 hectares. The former president of the Eisenmann SE group, dedicated to the engineering industry, declared it bankrupt after rejecting acquisition offers from a Chinese group. The estate also has a helipad. Finally, in 2019, a winery was inaugurated in Felanitx with an investment of €8 million to market the organic wine produced from its vineyards. A 7,500 square meter space, 48 tanks with a capacity of 12,000 liters of red wine and a 20,000-liter tank for blending, in addition to oak barrels, mostly French.
Now, reputable media outlets such Le Figaro, Architectural Digest and Mansionglobal Reports indicate that the real estate agency John Taylor has once again put Mallorca's most expensive house on the luxury market, surpassing the price of the 'Villa Solitaire' mansion in Son Vida (€39 million) and Sa Fortaleza in Pollença (sold for €63 million to Norwegian magnate Ivar Tollefsen). The future of Es Fangar and its tourism potential, with the inclusion of services such as luxury weddings, equestrian events, and ecotourism, suggests that the estate could become one of the most exclusive and attractive destinations in Europe. A prime example of how Mallorca's historical heritage succumbs to the pressures of the global luxury market.
