Built in 1907, this majestic residence stands as one of the architectural jewels of Roma Norte, and without a
doubt, one of the most remarkable homes in Mexico. Restored with extraordinary care and sensitivity, it
combines the grandeur of Porfirian architecture with contemporary comfort and elegance, while preserving its
authentic character.
From the moment you enter, the home impresses with a grand reception hall featuring original hardwood
floors, precisely laid in intricate geometric patterns, a testament to the craftsmanship and refinement of the
early 20th century. Preserved in impeccable condition, these details reflect the dedication and artistry that
define this extraordinary property.
At the heart of the home lies its helical wooden staircase, a true work of art added in 1917 during the
residence’s expansion. Its elegant design and detailed carving make it a sculptural centerpiece that captures
the essence of the entire property.
The interiors are distinguished by remarkable ceiling heights, impeccable ornamental moldings, and the glow
of Baccarat chandeliers and 19th-century gilded lamps, which fill every room with light and sophistication.
The original stained-glass windows, designed by artist Claudio Pellandini, bathe the interiors in filtered natural
light, casting subtle colors that enhance the home’s timeless beauty.
The residence offers three spacious bedrooms, two of them with walk-in closets, all featuring ensuite
bathrooms adorned with Italian Bisazza mosaics. The primary suite is a private sanctuary of elegance and
serenity, complete with a family room and a large, light-filled bathroom, where the Victoria + Albert
bathtub serves as a striking centerpiece of luxury and relaxation.
The two living rooms and formal dining area, arranged across a series of refined salons, retain the proportions
of a classic residence while offering the flow and comfort of a modern home.
Additional spaces include an exceptional library, a distinctive room full of character as well as a wine
cellar, office, and a modern kitchen equipped with top-of-the-line appliances, seamlessly blending design and
functionality.
Between 2008 and 2014, the residence underwent a comprehensive structural restoration,
including reinforcement with deep piles to ensure long-term stability and preserve its architectural integrity,
along with a complete renovation of electrical and plumbing systems. The Kommerling windows and
doors provide insulation and comfort without compromising the historic essence of the house.
Outdoors, the property features two gardens, three terraces ideal for enjoying open-air living, and parking for
up to eight cars. It also includes an independent service apartment.
This residence is a true livable work of art, where history, beauty, and luxury coexist in perfect harmony. Ideally
located just steps from Plaza Río de Janeiro, it lies in the heart of Roma Norte — surrounded by architecture,
art, and gastronomy — in one of Mexico City’s most iconic and sought-after neighborhoods.
