Today’s video brings us back to the village of Ajijic and the gated community of La Huerta. La Huerta takes it’s name from the fruit trees that were planted here when the development was built. The mature street landscaping is truly stunning and this small quiet development enjoys a fantastic location. It is walkable to restaurants, grocery stores, a micro brewery pub, a french bakery, an organic market and a straight shot down Ocampo street to the town center.
Casa Smith is a 3 bedroom 3 bath home on an oversized lot at the end of a quiet street. It features covered parking for 2 cars and one of the most charming street facades in this community. I love the symmetry of the 4 Juliet balconies with blooming flowers and the gently entry steps with their antique coach lights. Notice the plaque by the front door “Oro Fino” - Pure Gold.
The current owner fell in love with this home and saw it’s potential. She knew this property was a jewel but adding a solar heated pool, another guest room and ensuite bath, filling it with her favorite furniture and art transformed it into PURE GOLD. This grand entry was part of that transformation and sets this home apart from its’ neighbors. The home is being sold fully furnished, so pay attention to some truly remarkable heirlooms as we go through this property because it is a GOLDEN opportunity for a buyer.
Past the entry, is an oval domed foyer with art niches and we go left into the bedroom wing, right into the office den or straight ahead into the great room. The Great Room has a soaring bovida brick ceiling, a gas fireplace and wall niches housing the owners blue and white porcelain collection. This room is large enough to house dining as well as living but the wall of pocket sliding glass tell me that most people would choose to dine on the terrace.
The comfortable club chairs are a must for long lingering meals or afternoons of card or game playing with family and friends. This terrace even has a fountain with its own seating area.
Anyone who has viewed typical homes in many gated communities can appreciate the expanse and scale of this back yard. A full sized solar heated pool a spacious relaxation lounger space and still room for cocktail seating and an elevated garden. But what impresses this sometimes-jaded realtor is the magnificent mountain view. WOW!
The spacious light filled kitchen flows off the Great Room and has a pass thru to the terrace. Upscale appliances, Cobalt blue and white tile, double stainless steel sink with a garbage disposal AND a garden and mountain view….love! Love! LOVE! There is a full walk-in pantry off the kitchen and a laundry room. The current owner loves to host dinner parties and has enen left you her china and glassware to continue this homes tradition.
There is a bonus office den off the great room that connects back to the oval foyer. This room with its brass wall sconces would also make a wonderful intimate dining space
The 2 guest rooms both have those large front windows and their flower filled Juliet balconies. One is off the bonus office den and has its own private ensuite bath. The other is in the Bedroom Wing. It’s bathroom has hallway entrance but also its own door to this bedroom allowing it to serve as an ensuite but also dinner guest bath.
The hallway has two linen closets and ultimately takes us to the master suite. A north facing glass bay window showcases the pool, garden and mountain view but the stars in this room are its soaring brick boveda domed ceiling, it’s carved four poster bed and this amazing hand carved wardrobe that hides the TV and electronics out of sight. This bedroom has a large bathroom and walk in closet both with skylights
Homes in the quiet secure gated community of La Huerta sell quickly because of their desirable location and peaceful orchard like setting.
The home speaks to the love lavished on it by the current owner. It is also one of the few in this development that have a pool as well as a large garden with a mountain view.
It is a house of refinement and casual elegance perfect for entertaining or as a private oasis. It offers covered parking for 2 cars, plenty of storage with a double locker in the carport as well as a large pool pumproom. Mexican charm with soaring boveda ceilings, niches, crown moldings, skylights and cupola domes. A poolside covered entertaining terrace with a kitchen pass thru, 3 bedrooms PLUS a bonus office den. A turnkey, move in ready home with not only furniture and art work but also quality towels, linens, dishes, silverware, pots and pans and appliances for only $435,000 just waiting for a stylish new owner
