This house, built around 1830, has been totally remodeled and refurbished by renowned architect Henry Ponce. It's one of his first, so if you're familiar with his style you're going to find a refreshing originality here. This house is in a prime location, just one block from the English library, and about equidistant from both the central downtown area with a lot of contemporary entertainment such as theater, film, art shows, ballet, dance, music, and museums, and Santiago park, which offers you the traditional side of Yucatan life with its local taco stands and eateries, park benches for young lovers and retired folks, playgrounds for the kids, fountains, a church, a local movie house, hardware stores (reminds me of where I used to go with my dad), open air market, mom and pop groceries, pharmacies, and schools. The house has a beautiful pool heated when desired by solar panels on the roof. The main house has a guest bedroom that can also be used as an office, beautiful reception areas, a state-of-the art yet charming kitchen, dining room, and guest full bath. Enter the gardens, and you will find the master suite off to one side, complete with fully tiled bathroom. To the back of the property, beside the carefully cared-for garden, you’ll find the guest suite, complete with bath. Need more room? Go up on the roof to enjoy an evening breeze and to catch a great view of Santiago Park, the cathedral, and other surrounding houses. The traditionally high ceilings will carry you back to another era, the modern electric amenities will provide you comfort in this one. Close to everything, yet completely private. Make your dreams come true! MOTIVATED SELLER!! |
