URBAN RETREAT IN SANTA ANA
This chic, recently completed urban retreat, located in desirable Colonia Santa Ana on a quiet street just a 3-block stroll from the lively restaurants, cafes and bars along Merida’s famed Paseo Montejo, truly has it all. Location, North/South exposure for those cooling tropical breezes, architectural flair, spacious garage, flexible layout, chef’s kitchen, and every modern convenience - plus a particularly seductive pool in a lush tropical garden: It checks all the boxes! This 3 bedroom, 3 ½ bathroom house, a new construction of very high quality, is skillfully designed to combine traditional historic references with a contemporary lifestyle sensibility, and has been meticulously finished and maintained by the current owners. Improvements and maintenance protocols include a completely re-sealed roof, upgraded ventilation vents, stylish mirrors and additional fixtures in every bathroom and thoughtfully improved landscaping.
From the handsome front door and wrought iron carriage lights to the airy entrance hallway with it’s gleaming pasta tile floor and magnificent custom chandelier, your first impression of this house makes it clear that this is an exceptional home built and maintained with polish and pride. The vestibule, framed by signature wrought iron screens repeated throughout the main floor, opens into a gleaming contemporary chef’s kitchen with ample workspace and cabinetry and an inviting granite island with seating for four. Appliances are all new, stainless steel and include a dishwasher and garbage disposal. The huge laundry room and garage can be conveniently accessed from the kitchen. From the kitchen, a comfortable interior living room is perfect for socializing with guests or a relaxing evening watching a movie. Ironwork French doors lead directly out to an expansive covered patio and the sparkling pool. The colonnaded loggia provides plenty of shady space for inviting, al fresco living and dining and the unusual glass-paneled filtered pool, always a cool haven, comes with the option for colorful mood lighting. Well-established landscaping includes a wonderful old-growth tree, luxuriant stands of flowering ginger and other tropical plants. The main level also includes a roomy, secluded bedroom/bathroom suite accessed via the patio, and a half bathroom right off the pool area. This bonus space has numerous possibilities — Besides offering appealing, ground-floor bedroom accommodation, it could also serve as a convenient media/family room, a private home-office or even a delightful art studio.
Ascending to the second floor via the easy, attractive staircase, you’ll find two elegant, light-filled bedroom/bathroom suites, each offering distinctive detailing and high-end bathroom fixtures. The Master Bedroom overlooking the pool is particularly large and impressive, providing enough room for a seating area with a pair of comfy club chairs positioned for reading or an irresistible afternoon of TV indulgence and a spectacular bathroom/dressing room with a walk-in closet, beautiful granite, double sinks and a stunning custom bathtub overlooking the private terrace. From top to bottom and inside-out, this completely move-in-ready house is thoughtfully designed and thoroughly pleasing. Finishes and upgrades include 20 solar panels, decorative pasta tile accents, granite countertops, custom shades, modern door and window fittings, excellent wifi reception, lighting, ceiling fans and AC throughout. Both sophisticated and easy maintenance, this really is the perfect property for use as a full time home, a Winter retreat or a luxurious rental investment. A separate furniture package is available on request.
