Description

Casa Iluminada is a striking contemporary home where soaring ceilings, dramatic stone walls, and expansive windows create a beautiful connection between architecture and nature. Overlooking the Charco del Ingenio reservoir, the surrounding valley, and the rooftops of San Miguel de Allende, the home enjoys extraordinary views and spectacular sunsets. Adjacent to protected green space, Casa Iluminada offers the tranquility of country living just minutes from the heart of San Miguel. Designed with entertaining in mind, the main living level features a generous open-concept living and dining area, a chef's kitchen, and three fireplaces that bring warmth and character to the contemporary spaces. An impressive double-height stone wall, accented with rare green cantera, provides a distinctive architectural and artistic focal point. The beautifully designed kitchen island invites guests to gather while enjoying the sweeping views beyond the windows. Large windows fill the living spaces with natural light, while a spacious terrace overlooking protected green space extends the entertaining area outdoors, with dramatic views across the valley. A bedroom with a full bathroom, along

with a guest powder room, completes this level. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms and a lovely sunroom offer comfortable and inviting private spaces. The primary bedroom enjoys stunning valley views and opens directly into the spacious sunroom, creating the feeling of a private suite. The second bedroom, facing east, overlooks the front garden and its lush palm trees. An expansive upper terrace is one of the home's most memorable features, offering a spectacular setting for entertaining, sunset cocktails, or simply enjoying the far-reaching views. On the lower level, a separate bedroom suite with kitchenette and private entrance provides exceptional flexibility. Opening to a small garden terrace with a gate leading to the surrounding green space, this inviting area could serve as an independent guest apartment, a spacious artist's studio, or a home gym. Casa Iluminada's location is equally appealing. With protected natural surroundings and the walking trails of the Charco del Ingenio botanical garden nearby, the home offers a wonderful sense of peace and privacy. Yet the restaurants, galleries, and vibrant cultural life of Centro Histórico are just a downhill stroll away.
