Las tres casas de la semana: fue lugar de encuentro de artistas de la talla de Salvador Dalí y ahora se vende por 9,5 millones

Three houses have become the focal point of an art auction in Spain - the Casa Staempfli, a modernist masterpiece designed by Peter Harnden and Lanfranco Bombelli in the 1950s for the art collector George Staempfli. Now on the market for 9.5 million euros, the property in the heart of Cadaqués has hosted some of the century's greatest artistic minds, including Salvador Dalí, Marcel Duchamp, Isamu Noguchi and Xavier Corberó.

The Casa Staempfli, with its blend of modern architecture and Cadaqués' traditional construction, boasts five spacious living areas, six bathrooms, sculptural chimneys and numerous sunlit terraces overlooking the Mediterranean. Its key feature is a water-filled terrace that visually extends the house into the bay.

In Son Ganxo, a quiet residential area of Sant Lluís on Menorca's southeast coast, a 2,000 square meter villa of two levels is up for sale. Newly renovated in 2025, this property welcomes visitors with a sunlit atrium integrating living, dining and kitchen spaces. Upstairs, the main suite and two bedrooms await.

Powered by solar panels, this Menorcan villa, set along the Aceña River 60 kilometers from Madrid, retains an ancient windmill hailing from the 16th-17th centuries. The grounds also include a ruined 90-square-meter aviary and a solar-powered water feature. Although requiring rehabilitation, the property's historic and cultural significance remains significant.
