Centro

This centrally located and classic San Miguel de Allende property sits upon an enormous, terraced, 17,739 sf (1,648 m²) lot that possesses stunning panoramic views of the city, the valley and the majestic Sierra of Guanajuato. For decades this unforgettable view has been the envy of both tourists and locals alike, who gaze and partake in photo opportunities from the nearby mirador (look-out point) on the Salida de Queretaro, the traditional main entrance to the historic center of the city. This impressive home with its outstanding construction and masterfully crafted materials immediately evokes nostalgia for a bygone era of yesteryear. A four-car garage leads you to the main part of the home, which is situated on the top floor and features a master bedroom with bath en suite and four additional bedrooms, two with bath en suite and two with a shared bath. On the same floor there is also a full kitchen with a pantry and prep kitchen, as well as dining and living areas that share access to a beautiful breakfast-ready terrace that overlooks the below gardens and the aforementioned spectacular view of San Miguel and the surrounding valley. This same terrace also connects to the master bedroom and one of the main bedrooms. A short flight down the staircase brings you to a recreation room with a full bar and living area that opens to the upper garden, featuring a patio, a fountain, an eight-person Jacuzzi and a permanent iron grill, ideal for entertaining guests. On this same lower level, you will find two self-contained apartments, one with two bedrooms and another with one bedroom, each with baths en suite, full kitchenettes, living and dining areas, and breathtaking views of the Centro. On your way down to the next level you will find the third and final self-contained one-bedroom apartment, also with bath en suite, full kitchenette, living and dining area and a view of the spacious lower gardens. The combination of the five upper bedrooms and the self-contained and privately accessible four lower bedrooms make this property ideal for accommodating a very large extended family, hosting special events such as weddings, or possibly subleasing the main house and the three separate apartments to different renters. The sheer immensity of the lot, the enviable downtown location and the magnificent views justify the asking price alone, as properties as large and as central as this one are a rare find indeed.
