An opportunity has opened to buy a charming country home situated in Tepoztlán, a highland mountain town less than one hour by road to the southern entrance to Mexico City.
The house is situated a 10-minute drive from the center of the Tepoztlán and affords the advantages of a countryside lifestyle with the convenience of nearby local amenities.
Enjoy a charming home in the Mexican countryside
The house was built in 2000. The current owner has invested considerable effort and resources to improve the property that has also been consistently well-cared for over the years.
The property offers 418 square meters (~5,500 sq. ft.) of constructed living and outdoor terrace space on a plot of land 791 square meters (~8,515 sq. ft.) in size.
From the two-stall garage, walk up the well-proportioned garden stairway alongside the carefully tended terraced garden that features an assortment of cacti and mature trees, including fruiting banana palms. Between two terraces is a small solar-heated pool which is ideal for relaxing and gentle exercise.
Walking across the main terrace that wraps around the house, the front door opens out into a large and bright entranceway featuring a circular stairwell to the second floor, where the Master Bedroom, bathroom, lounge/studio, and working fireplace are situated.
On the first floor, leading off the main entranceway, is the home’s spacious lounge, also with a working fireplace, a wet bar, and just beyond there, a pleasant dining area adjacent to the kitchen.
The colonial style kitchen features a breakfast bar and a door leading out to the back garden and a separate utility room.
Outdoor terraces to enjoy the extraordinary local climate
The property has five attractive terrace spaces to help make the most of the remarkably temperate and agreeable year-round climate this region offers.
The largest of the four terraces features five pillars and wraps around the front edge of the main house, as well as providing covered access to two generously sized bedrooms with built-in wardrobes and storage, and which share a large full bathroom in between them.
The second terrace is a covered area leading directly off the Master Bedroom and that offers a spectacular sight across the surrounding mountainside as well as unbroken sunset views.
The third terrace is located directly off the poolside, providing a raised and beautifully fenced platform around the tended gardens; with its spectacular mountain views, it’s an ideal outdoor space for entertaining, or simply relaxing after a dip in the pool.
The fourth terraced space offers a covered area that’s ideal for outdoor entertaining or dining al fresco, and from there you step up and out into an adjacent open-air multi-purpose fifth terrace area which also features an outdoor BBQ and sink/wash facility.
