Nestled in a quiet street on the eastern side of Centro you will find Casa Colibrí. This unique home offers a harmonious blend of Mexican colonial architecture that showcases the neighborhood’s diverse character. You will be welcomed by the home’s many terraces, arches, colored tile, Saltillo flooring, hand painted murals, Tejamanil ceilings, and many outdoor living spaces that together create a warm and inviting ambiance. A wonderful place to call home!
Entering the home from street level, you can take the stairs or wind up the rampway that was graciously provided. Upon entering, your attention is immediately drawn to the exquisite handkerchief boveda ceiling, a beautiful handmade feature crafted by one of San Miguel’s talented artisans. On this level of the house, you’ll discover a vibrant and colorful den, designed as a cozy space for reading and relaxing. Also on this level are two of the home’s en-suite bedrooms that feature a fireplace for added warmth and ambiance during cooler months. The den and two bedrooms are connected by a large outdoor covered terrace that fronts onto an open courtyard complete with a splash pool with jets, outdoor kitchen, two additional fireplaces, and striking displays of potted plants, trees, and flowers that provide year-round color, natural beauty and food and refuge for the hummingbirds.
Ascending the stairs, you will walk into the pleasant living room that opens onto the dining room and a grand gourmet kitchen. While the kitchen is beautifully adorned with Mexican tile, make no mistake that you will have all the modern-day cooking conveniences at your fingertips. On this level there is also an en-suite bedroom with fireplace and terrace. Enjoy the home’s second expansive covered balcony which provides a perfect extension of the living and dining rooms. Al fresco dining and sunset views are a must!
On the lower level you will find a beautifully prepared and fully equipped one bedroom, one bathroom casita that includes a built in desk, bookshelves and cabinets, a small but complete kitchen, and a private patio. You will also find a wine cellar, laundry room, equipment room, and access to the garage on the lower level.
Casa Colibri offers a seamless integration of indoor and outdoor living. With handcrafted details throughout, every aspect of this home has been designed to provide comfort, relaxation, and an opportunity to embrace the magical San Miguel lifestyle and climate.
