3,247 m² of flat, mature garden inside a private gated community with 24-
hour security. In a city built on ravines, level ground of this size is
rare, and it is what defines this property.
The trees were here for decades before the house. Amates, palms,
cypresses and bougainvillea that give shade and privacy, and make the
land feel like a place rather than a lot. The garden has sprinkler irrigation,
a cistern and a pressurized water system.
Set within it, 534 m² of Mexican colonial construction on a single level.
Main house, living areas and guest bungalow, all on one floor, no stairs
anywhere. Wood-beam and brick-vaulted ceilings, clay tile
floors, cantera stone columns.
The heart of the house is a covered terrace running the length of the
garden: living area, dining room, bar and fireplace in one continuous
space, with windows that open fully onto the garden. Cuernavaca's
temperate climate makes it usable year-round. Inside, a living room with
a cantera fireplace beneath a brick vault, and a formal dining room, both
with excellent natural light and views over the grounds. The kitchen is
traditional Mexican and handmade: masonry hood, hand-painted Talavera
tile set piece by piece, solid wood cabinetry, and direct access to the
service areas. A glass-vaulted solarium, a small bar under an arch, and a
storage room complete the house.
Six bedrooms, each with a full bathroom and walk-in closet. Three in the
main house, with air conditioning. Three more in an independent
bungalow, fitted with ceiling fans and with their own entrance from the


garden, guests come and go without crossing the main house. Staff
quarters with three rooms and two full bathrooms, in a separate structure.
Two covered parking spaces with ample space for more parking inside
the community.
Pool heated by boiler and solar panels, in use year-round. The grounds
also include an area ideally suited to developing a tennis court or creating
a new recreational space according to the future owner's needs.
The original construction is over five decades old and retains its
architecture; functional updates were made in 2021. Wheelchair
accessible. 85 km from Mexico City via highway 95D, in the City of
Eternal Spring: the annual mean temperature is 21 °C, varying only a few
degrees between the coolest and warmest months.
