Property Description
Step into timeless elegance with this regal Colonial mansion, a refined and tastefully restored home located in the highly sought-after Santa Lucía neighborhood. Rich in character and architectural beauty, the residence offers two spacious bedrooms, with the potential to create a third by converting a charming secondary sitting room—complete with its own full bathroom and closet—into an additional suite.
From the moment you enter, the home captivates with its coordinated black-and-white pasta tile floors, featuring intricate borders in the main reception rooms and terrace, complemented by sympathetically designed finishes in the bedrooms and kitchen. Soaring, high beamed ceilings adorned with exquisite rondels showcasing the crests of notable Mérida families elevate the front rooms, while elegant wooden doors—many with traditional louvers and finely crafted screen doors—enhance the home’s classic sophistication.
All principal rooms, along with a generous covered terrace, are thoughtfully oriented toward a serene central patio, complete with a pool and lush plantings—creating a private oasis ideal for relaxation or entertaining. The terrace itself is a standout feature, boasting magnificent arches and antique stone columns that evoke grandeur and charm.
The kitchen is a celebration of traditional Mexican design, featuring a large central chimney, Talavera tile accents, and abundant custom cabinetry, while bathrooms and closets throughout the home are also outfitted with bespoke woodwork. Modern comforts have been seamlessly integrated, including air conditioning, ceiling fans, a solar system, and a water softener, ensuring ease of living without compromising authenticity.
Additional amenities include a large laundry/utility room with a convenient half bathroom, enhancing the home’s functionality while maintaining its elegant character. Additional highlights include a secondary sitting room with a beautiful wall niche housing a fountain, as well as select custom furnishings included in the sale—such as most outdoor pieces and a striking pair of large black shelving units. The home offers a rare balance of spaciousness within a manageable footprint, making it both grand and practical.
Ideally situated just steps from Calle 47’s vibrant dining scene, Paseo de Montejo, and Mérida’s most iconic Centro attractions, the property enjoys one of the city’s most desirable locations. The picturesque street is lined with meticulously restored homes, and one of Mérida’s finest bakeries and breakfast spots is just four doors away. Secure monthly parking is also available nearby for added convenience.
This is a truly special residence—classy, refined, and rich in heritage—offering an exceptional opportunity to own a piece of Mérida’s architectural legacy.
