Casa Richard

Pedro Páramo 38 San Miguel De Allende, Guanajuato 37795 México

Built for comfort and relaxed bucolic living, the home is expansive on the ground level, featuring both a Master- and Second en-suite bedroom – each with boveda ceilings and their own fireplace. Also on the ground level is a large, live-in, gourmet kitchen filled with morning light and opening onto a breakfast patio, an adjacent library-studio and a boveda-ceiling dining-room with which it shares a central fireplace. The large sunken living room has french doors opening onto a spacious covered terrace with views over the gardens and pool. This, and a second tile-roofed terrace on the front side of the house offer a variety of options for outdoor dining and entertaining.

The ample external stairway hides a large bodega/storage room and opens on ythe second floor onto a third en suite bedroom/studio with access to both lower- and upper-terraces that offer lovely views of the gardens, pool and sunsets over the nearby Presa Allende.

But nature is the theme here – the house, pool and fully independent casita with its own kitchenette are all framed by large trees and lush green grass. The petit stables, partially hidden by flowering bushes open onto a natural arroyo meadow that is green year-round, perfect for pets/animals of any kind – including children! And beyond the walls of the property is still more natural wonder to enjoy, as the property sits beside a public park with paths for walking and riding, and is just steps from the expansive nature preserve of the Presa Allende.

Mirador del Fraile, located in the lower part of Los Frailes – but still just 10 minutes from town – boasts the largest private lots in the colonia (min 1000m) – and many of its most valuable homes. If you are seeking peaceful country living, just minutes from San Miguel, look no farther than Casa Richard
