True Mexican home

First time visitors to San Miguel often comment on how colorful the city is, and it’s true -  from the festive banners that criss-cross the cobblestone streets to the vibrant tones of fresh cut flowers in the mercados – color is bursting out everywhere you look.  If you want your new house to express that same lively style, and/or if you’re looking for an investment that will draw visitors with its playful energy, look no further.

This 4-5 bedroom property not only functions as a wonderful private home but has also enjoyed great success as a B&B.  Several features make the B&B option particularly appealing:

-  the master bedroom has its own sitting area, so that the owners can relax in privacy

- a fifth room, currently purposed as an office, includes a closet and so could easily be converted into another bedroom

- the reputation of Casa Papaya, as the B&B has been know, is stellar, as can be viewed on Trip Advisor, here:   - https://www.tripadvisor.com.mx/Hotel_Review-g151932-d1161612-Reviews-Casapapaya_B_B-San_Miguel_de_Allende_Central_Mexico_and_Gulf_Coast.html .

-the sale includes all furnishings and even art, so the new owner could easily begin taking in guests right away.

Of course, if you just want a place to spread out, this home is a good option for that, too.  In addition to the bedrooms, there are numerous living areas, including a ground floor living room that looks out into the patio, the sitting area in the master suite already mentioned, a spacious landing area upstairs, the sunny entry patio with loggia (covered area), terraces off the master bedroom and second floor, and a partially covered rooftop terrace.   It should be noted that the rooftop terrace is fully tiled and quite large, with views to the lake and surrounding mountains, and could easily be more fully developed, e.g., with the addition of  a kitchen and BBQ, a tiled or vine-covered pergola, etc.

The inviting kitchen is spacious enough for casual dinner parties and features extensive cabinetry, as well as a gas heater for chilly mornings.

Extra amenities include a service area on the second floor, extra (hidden) storage in the living room, a small studio/taller on the roof, and solar panels.  A real plus is that the solar power generated is sufficient for maintaining the entire property.

You’re certain to enjoy your new life here in Mexico in this charming, colorful house!
