Overview
About This Property
Escape to the enchanting beauty of San Miguel de Allende at the exquisite Casa Arcadia. This remarkable property offers a rare opportunity for the discerning buyer to experience a piece of San Miguel's rich colonial history. Situated on the iconic Calle Aldama, often dubbed "The Most Beautiful Street in the world," Casa Arcadia is a testament to architectural brilliance and artistic grandeur.
Step into a world of opulence as you enter Casa Arcadia, a masterpiece that seamlessly blends colonial heritage with modern luxury. The home is adorned with a stunning collection of art, much of which is crafted by prominent Mexican artists. This haven of sophistication is perfect for the connoisseur seeking not only a magnificent residence but also a slice of San Miguel's illustrious past.
Every corner of Casa Arcadia tells a story of meticulous design and craftsmanship. The house underwent a recent reconstruction led by one of the most renowned architects of San Miguel de Allende, resulting in a harmonious fusion of historical charm and contemporary elegance. The interior decoration, overseen by the internationally acclaimed designer Rachel Horn, exudes an air of refined taste and international allure.
Upon entering the house, a sky lit staircase ushers you into a realm of architectural marvels. The first level showcases large arched windows and doorways that blur the lines between indoor and outdoor spaces. High ceilings add to the sense of grandeur. This level boasts an al fresco garden sitting area, a lavish dining room, a state-of-the-art kitchen, and an inviting outdoor dining terrace with propane three burner grill. With its well-appointed spaces, Casa Arcadia is tailor-made for hosting unforgettable gatherings. The gourmet kitchen is not only a masterpiece in itself, featuring top-tier appliances and luxurious marble finishes, but also a functional hub for catering to large groups.
Venture to the second level and discover a beautifully landscaped interior courtyard graced by a generous pool and an outdoor covered bar. The heart of this floor is the expansive main living room, where a glass door facing west frames a sculptural staircase that leads to outdoor terraces above. The sense of tranquility and indulgence is palpable.
A long, arched gallery opens up from the pool courtyard, revealing three of the four master bedrooms on the second level. Each bedroom boasts a lavish en-suite bath, a cozy TV sitting area, a convenient coffee bar, a wine refrigerator, and air conditioning. Two of these master bedrooms are adorned with cozy fireplaces, and one features French doors that open to the pool courtyard, inviting in the refreshing breeze.
The fourth master bedroom awaits on the third level, embellished with a majestic arched Boveda ceiling and charming Juliet balconies that frame captivating sunset views over San Miguel. Complete with an en-suite bath (including a tub), a fireplace, and air conditioning, this room offers unparalleled privacy as the sole occupant of this level.
As you ascend to the heights of Casa Arcadia, you'll be greeted by two levels of rooftop terraces, both seating areas being covered to allow sun protection when desired, a spacious covered wet bar, and a convenient half bath. The views from these terraces are nothing short of awe-inspiring. Gaze upon the historic Parroquia and relish the splendid sunsets that paint the western sky.
