A unique property in Ajijic proper is offered for sale by its long-term owner, a respected North American interior designer: An estate situated in the well-established upper east mountain area of town, on 5,534 square meters of lush, mature landscaping. As-is, it’s an elegant and grand estate with 667 m2 of construction, where your family can breathe easy and make some cherished memories. The property is also well-suited for the investor as an upscale retirement complex, a unique boutique hotel, or an enviably located townhome complex. The possibilities are endless for this one-of-a-kind property, one comfortably priced for all contingencies. Drive past the stables and caretaker’s cottage, past the tennis court, which has a shaded seating area, and onto the circular driveway of the two-story central home. Parking for 24 cars can be comfortably accommodated throughout the property, including four cars under the home’s attached ‘carriage’ area. An Italian-design swimming pool beckons down below, featuring a built-in bar and bathroom. The entire property has numerous private patios and seating areas, many shaded by wonderful old native trees, and the landscape includes a variety of palm tree species, fruit trees, countless succulents, and even a small agave field. Built in Mediterranean style, the three-bedroom, three-bath main house has stunning Roman aqueducts that serve to artistically marry the home to its landscaping. Terraces with canterra balustrades line both the upper and lower stories and are positioned to maximize the lake breezes. Inside is a comfortable, open-space, artistically conceived Great Room: Native wood pillars separate the living space at one end, and canterra and mirror accents have been added to balance the room and lend warmth. Antique Mexican cathedral ceiling lamps are hung throughout and two full-size canterra fireplaces grace each end of the large living area In the center of it all, a sculptural marvel serves as the grand spiral staircase, designed with wide steps and an easy-mount stair height, everything sweeping up to the grand master suite on the second floor. Illuminated by natural light and off-white polished ceramic tiles, this master is a large en-suite room that has its own terrace area outside the full-length windows. The bathroom offers a pocket-door option, modern fixtures and granite countertops, double sinks, sunken tub, shower, and private toilet. A large walk-in closet has custom cabinetry. Downstairs are two bedrooms – a second master that faces the lake, has its own terrace, with granite countertops, a shower and sunken tub in the bathroom. The second bedroom is lit up by cheerful light from a recessed sunroof, has its own bath, and features a covered sleeping and hot-weather reading porch just out the door; these rooms can be prepared as living quarters with private entrance. Both bedrooms also have walk-in closets. The kitchen, just off the ‘carriage’ parking area, is modern and efficient, with just enough space to please both the professional chef and the occasional cook, featuring granite counter tops and charming wood cabinets, a large pantry area and pass-through window to the Great Room A short path up from the main house is a comfortable two-bedroom one-bath casita. Featuring abundant outdoor living space, the casita offers a wet bar on the main floor and a mirador on top for best lake views.
