THIS IS AN ARCHITECTURAL & DESIGNER'S MASTERPIECE! From the moment you pull into the manicured driveway off the private cul de sac into the wooded oasis of old growth trees and enter through the antique hand carved teak front doors, you find yourself in absolute awe of your surroundings! With so much to see & feel you quickly realize that it cannot be absorbed in one visit. This is a very special & magical property that requires great contemplation to fully appreciate. There is 4,318 sq ft of splendor with 3BR & 3BA. The elegant living spaces are stunning, 5 custom fireplaces, a chef's kitchen & the most serene & peaceful owner's suite with a fabulous bath & a spectacular custom tiled shower with cupola! There are countless antique, rustic, hand carved & painted doors, columns & tiles! You almost don't want to go outside but the views out of the large wood clad windows and doors keep trying to steal your attention and focus. Eventually you succumb to the temptation and open one of the many beautiful French doors to the backyard or side patios and you find yourself in another magnificent world. It is a wonderful parklike resort setting with a sparkling pool as the centerpiece with Cantera stone columns, moldings, mantels and accents with flagstone and natural rock pathways. There are 3 stone fountains, hand painted tile murals and an outdoor shower. All of this is surrounded by a tall masonry privacy wall.
Back inside this AUTHENTIC, ENCHANTING SPANISH COLONIAL, you can't help to notice the wood beams, high ceilings, kitchen with custom hand painted vintage Talavera tile cabinets and solid alder wood cabinets, a large custom hand carved wooden bar, skylights (22 of them!) at every turn, 2 cupolas, hand forged wrought iron doors, light fixtures and accents, extravagant custom furniture grade vanities and several collectors antique furniture pieces are included.
The attention to detail here is second to none. Please read the Improvements and Features List in the Documents tab.
THERE HAVE BEEN MANY SIGNIFICANT UPGRADES, improvements and maintenance performed on the property recently. The sellers have installed 3 new HVAC units, a new roof, new paint inside and out, new septic tank leach lines, new irrigation system, upgraded plumbing and electrical and installed a sensational new dining room floor tile to name a few.
THIS IS A ONE OF ONE, TIMELESS, OLD-WORLD CLASSIC HOME. It cannot be duplicated. It has been a Tubac Designer Showcase Home in the past. Now it is at a whole new level. Many of the breathtaking elements in this home are similar to the famed Tubac Golf Resort since this was once owned by a designer at the Resort. The current owner has been a designer for 30 years. This is the type of home featured in Architectural Digest and located in San Miguel De Allende, Mexico. Come visit this rare, exquisite gem to see for yourself. You will be delighted you did!
