Historic Residence Facing the Templo de la Purísima Concepción

Built in the late 18th century, this rare property is an authentic example of San Miguel de Allende’s historic civil architecture. Ideally located directly across from the Templo de la Purísima Concepción, the residence enjoys a privileged position within the historic center, maintaining a direct visual and contextual relationship with one of the city’s most significant landmarks.

The architecture is defined by restraint, proportion, and spatial clarity rather than ornamentation, featuring generous volumes, exceptional ceiling heights, and strong visual continuity. Remarkably intact, the home retains its original layout, solid construction, and architectural coherence, offering an exceptional foundation for a thoughtful and respectful contemporary evolution.

A traditional, gradual entrance leads into a serene interior anchored by a central courtyard with fountain and surrounding corridors. Eleven authentic rooms provide flexible living possibilities, while rooftop and second-level terraces offer sweeping 360-degree views over domes, towers, and the historic skyline, with a direct outlook toward the temple.

Behind its solid historic walls, the residence offers rare privacy while discreetly accommodating modern infrastructure, including updated electrical systems to U.S. code and wiring for high-speed internet. This is a singular opportunity to create a refined residence, a restaurant or a beautiful well appointed commercial space that honors San Miguel’s architectural legacy while fully supporting modern living.
