You can have it all! True 18th century charm and 21st century convenience on one of San Miguel’s oldest streets, in a quiet, desirable neighborhood just three blocks from San Miguel’s elegant, festive Jardin. This beautiful home is charming and comfortable, offering bright, colorful interiors, gracious outdoor living, and stunning views.
The master bedroom has French doors leading to a plant-screened terrace, with a king-size bed, a walk-in closet, and tiled bath and shower. The fully tiled deep tub easily fits two – just light the candles and relax!
The rear bedroom has twin beds, step-out balcony windows overlooking the pomegranate tree, a walk-in closet, and tiled bath and shower. The house, Casa del Granado, takes its name from this tree.
Both bedrooms have private stairways to joining rooftop terraces with extraordinary views of the Parroquia and town, lake, mountains, and sunsets. Lie in the sun on chaise lounges or sit in shade under the tiled veranda set atop four cantera columns.
You’ll love your choices for relaxation and enjoyment throughout this thoroughly modern home with 18th century walls. In the living room you’ll find overstuffed sofas and chairs, a hand-built fireplace, and thick, warmly colored walls. In the dining room you may gather for meals at a round parquet-topped table. The brightly tiled kitchen is ready for cooking or for being served.
A winding path from the entrance foyer leads through a bamboo grove to a stone patio under the spreading pomegranate tree, by a sprinkling tile and stone fountain. Sit outdoors at stone tables or in the cool shade of the outdoor sala with its overstuffed sofas and chairs and private fireplace.
The sleeper study (sunroom) off the outdoor sala features a twin trundle bed along with desk, half bath, desk, TV/DVD, and views of the patio and fountain. Another half bath is found by the entrance foyer.
The home was designed by Eliazar Torres to combine 18th century charm with 21st century convenience; professionally decorated by Carl Selph to delight the senses; plantscaped by Tim Wachter to create an oasis of rest and calm. This home is in the best area of town, near the residence of Antonio Banderas, close to buses and within short walks to everything, only three blocks from the Jardin. There is parking on the street and a supervised facility is close by.
Lucy, the maid, comes to clean and change the linens. She can also cook for you. The property is also professionally managed by an English speaking manager who is always on call in case you have any problems. Susan Page, noted author, San Miguel resident, and founder of the SMA Authors' Sala, calls this house one of her top five favorites in town!
