San Miguel Allende Estate, Offered at U.S. $3.8 Million, Features Traditional Mexican Architecture and Stunning Panoramas of the Town

SAN MIGUEL DE ALLENDE, GUANAJUATO, MEXICO  – Casa Heyne, built by renowned Mexican architect Pedro Antonio Urquiza, is now being exclusively marketed by Christie’s International Real Estate, the world’s leading luxury real estate network. Offered at U.S. $3,800,000 by Christie’s International Real Estate affiliate CDR San Miguel, the hill-top property is an architectural masterpiece, inspired by the historic and iconic designs of local Mexican churches, buildings and haciendas.

Completed in 2000 after a year of planning and approximately three years of construction, Casa Heyne boasts roughly 18,000 square feet and looks out over the lush recreational area of Parque Juarez. The expansive estate comprises a master suite, five bedrooms, eight baths, 11 wood-burning fireplaces, eight patios, and a central courtyard with palms and citrus trees, a fishpond, waterfall and dipping pool. Unique craftsmanship and rare attention to detail are evident throughout, inclusive of hand-waxed wood floors, soaring tile walls in the kitchen, handkerchief boveda ceilings in the main dining room and windows and doors framed with intricate custom-made ties.

“This is a stunning property that has been beautifully constructed to meld with its centuries-old surroundings,” said Rick Moeser, Senior Vice President of Christie’s International Real Estate. “Buyers will not only enjoy expansive living areas with sweeping views, but well-appointed spaces that are not easily replicated.”

Set against a rocky canyon wall in the Lavaderos area of San Miguel, Casa Heyne has artfully incorporated much of the surrounding landscape into its actual design. The outdoor patio, for instance, has been crafted to include mature trees and a massive rock formation within its layout, and a large fireplace on one of the home’s eight patios has been carved from a cluster of boulders that doubles as a thermal wall. Water from four babbling fountains additionally trickles throughout the garden areas, providing several of the home’s outdoor spaces with a tranquil background hum.

“Without a doubt, this is one of the region’s most distinct properties and it’s an honor to bring it to market with Christie’s International Real Estate,” said Nancy Howze of CDR, an exclusive affiliate of the luxury network. “We look forward to showcasing Casa Heyne to the most discerning of global buyers as its location and lavish amenities will surely make it an international draw.”
