Location: Ajijic, Lake Chapala, Jalisco, Mexican Riviera, Mexico (Centrally Located in Ajijic Village - Walk to everything)
Accommodations: Single Family Home, 2 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 2 Baths (Sleeps 4-6)
AVAILABLE FOR SHORT OR LONG TERM RENTAL AS OF APRIL 1, 2010
*** 2 BR / 2 BA ***
ALL INCLUSIVE RENT:
$1400 per month High Season
$1250 per month Low Season or LONG TERM
$400 per week (double occupancy/$25 each additional person)
INCLUDES: Maid Service 3x week; electric; propane gas; water; cable tv; DSL internet connection; & local telephone calls.
Well maintained cozy home: 2 bedrooms & 2 baths (1 ensuite downstairs, 1 upstairs); living/dining area; kitchen; laundry room; upstairs airy loft; den with book, CD, and DVD libraries, cable TV, leading to a 600sq foot outdoor patio with lots of plants (patio is partially covered for shady seating); and 2 smaller internal patios. This is a perfect house for a couple, with room for guests. Tastefully decorated with comfortable furniture and eclectic art.
Located on a typical Mexican "privada" (narrow, dead end street) in the village, behind Farmacia Guadalajara, you are a short few blocks' walk from everything: the plaza, lake front, shops, restaurants, supermarket, bakery, movie theatres, Wednesday outdoor market, Lake Chapala Society, and much more. A bus stop, 24 hour pharmacy, internet cafe and ATM are just around the corner.
Parking is off-street but a car is NOT NECESSARY given the central location. You enter through the long garage, with my apartment adjacent. Then pass through a door separating the entry patio and house from the garage.
This is a small Mexican neighborhood street where everyone knows everyone else, and they all look out for one another, making it very secure. Inside, you are in your own private hideaway; step outside and you are in a typical local neighborhood.
The village of Ajijic, on Lake Chapala, has been a haven for artists and writers for decades. There are many restaurants from gourmet to taco stands, and everything in-between, as well as a variety of art galleries, antique and gift shops, boutiques and more. The Lake Chapala Society, with it's many activities, classes, library, and lovely gardens, is located one block up from the lake in the center of the village.
Ajijic is located on the northwest side of the lake, 5 miles from the municipal seat of Chapala. The international airport is a 30 minute drive, with Guadalajara about 20 minutes farther north from the airport. The artisan centers of Tlaquepaque and Tonala are part of the metropolitan Guadalajara area.
Please let me know if you have any questions about the property or the area.
Hasta pronto,
Robyn
