Alexander McQueen's Divine Former Mallorca Retreat Finds a Buyer

This villa on the Spanish island of Mallorca is eye-catching and glamorous, which is to be expected when a previous owner was fashion designer Alexander McQueen. More subdued than the bold creations seen walking down global runways, the sleek abode still makes an impact with a less-is-more design approach McQueen rarely employed. The sleek, 4,844-square-foot house belonged to the forward-thinking designer from 2005 until his tragic death in 2010. At that point, it changed hands and now it has sold again for $2.78 million.

Walls of glass, massive terraces, and plenty of lounge areas around and overlooking the pool show that this residence was designed for indoor/outdoor living. With sun shining most the year on this Mediterranean paradise, these outdoor perks are arguably the best part of the property.

Inside, there are five pristine bedrooms, three bathrooms, and chic open spaces that beg to differ. Decked out with unique light fixtures and colorful artwork, the interiors are ideal for someone who adores clean lines with pops of unexpected flair.

Mansion Global reports that a German buyer nabbed the villa, which was listed with Engel & Völkers.
