Casa Allende

Casa Allende boasts an impressive feature, the top-notch double-paned German 16-foot sliding doors that effortlessly transition from the serene courtyard into a beautifully designed open-plan dining and living room. The 11-foot high wooden beamed ceiling creates a feeling of grandeur while the grand gourmet kitchen, a dream space for any food enthusiast, is fully equipped with top-of-the-range appliances such as a Viking stove, built-in Monogram fridge, and KitchenAid silent dishwasher, as well as custom painted and designed cabinets, stunning mother of pearl backsplash, and ample storage space. And let’s not forget about the downstairs powder room for added convenience.

As you step inside this stunning home, nestled in the heart of San Miguel, you’re immediately transported into a world of indoor/outdoor living that will take your breath away. The cozy reception area with one of the 4 cantera fireplaces sets the tone for the beautifully designed al fresco courtyard, complete with climbing vines winding around handcrafted cantera pillars and a manicured garden centerpiece. Picture yourself hosting memorable evenings with friends and family in this modern lush oasis, grilling and dining under the stars in your own private paradise.

The attention to detail in Casa Allende is impeccable. The modern, bespoke decor is complemented by local Mexican craftsmanship, like the flush handmade stone wall, creating a unique and elegant atmosphere. The spacious garage is a rare find in San Miguel and provides the convenience and storage space you need.

As you wander through Casa Allende, the skylights dotted throughout the house infuse every room with an unparalleled amount of natural light, further amplifying the already airy and spacious feeling. Head up the second flight of winding stairs up to the second floor to discover the master bedroom with a heated ensuite bathroom featuring a tub, shower and an expansive walk-in closet. The second guest ensuite bedroom is equally as regal, perfect for hosting guests in style. And if you need a quiet place to work or relax, the light, quiet, and airy office on the second floor could easily be converted into a third bedroom. The conveniently located laundry room on the second floor makes everyday chores a breeze.

While the entire house boasts striking craftsmanship, it’s the rooftop terrace that truly captivates with its breathtaking 360-degree views, offering a rare and mesmerizing perspective. You’ll be spoilt for choice deciding where to gaze – whether it’s the three main iconic churches and monasteries in Centro (La Parroquia, El Templo de San Juan de Dios or El Templo y Ex Convento San Franscisco), the majestic mountain range or the charming beauty of San Antonio. And as the sun sets over the mountains, you and your friends can unwind with a glass of wine around the firepit, captivated by the exceptional sight of the illuminated Parroquia in all its splendor. The privacy this terrace provides is unmatched, with no one looking down on you, and a sliding roof covering the steps leading to the second floor, perfect for those rainy San Miguel days.

This home’s uniqueness is not only due to the property itself, but also its prime location. As soon as you step outside the front door, you’ll be swept up in the vibrant culture and close-knit community of San Antonio, which has been referred to as the “new Centro.” San Antonio’s main square, home to the neighborhood’s historic church, is a hidden gem and just steps away from Casa Allende’s front door. With beautifully manicured regional trees providing shade for benches where families and friends catch up and traditional street stalls sell delicious Mexican delights, the area is full of life yet still maintains a sense of quiet and serenity, making it the perfect place to call home. And with Centro just a couple of blocks away, and the Stirling Dickenson area just one street over, with its diverse range of gourmet bakeries, spas, a gym, galleries, and delicious mouth-watering restaurants, you have everything you need right at your fingertips.

Casa Allende is not just a house, it’s a lifestyle. It’s the perfect blend of modern luxury and traditional Mexican charm that offers something for everyone.
