“Brutalist masterpiece, Iconic Arts house”

Centrally located in San Miguel de Allende, this brutalist masterpiece, is a rare find, oozing with commercial and residential potential. Built in 1989, Kunsthaus was one of the first modernist houses in the area, and instantly placed this colonial city on the contemporary art world map. This iconic building has functioned as an art gallery, an artist retreat, a wedding venue, and a grand home. As you step into the property, you are surrounded by lush and mature gardens that sweep you into a refuge of art and inspiration. The arched foyer leads into a majestic living room of vast proportions. Elegant and multifunctional, it is the heart of the building and has hosted many cultural happenings, setting the tone for the entire construction. The kitchen and dining area feature a custom made concrete table for 12 guests and is drenched in light from the triple height skylight. The raw mesquite wood shelving is perfectly balanced with the industrial metal and cement cabinets. The kitchen has ample storage and is generously equipped for preparing a gourmet meal for a few friends, or a larger catered event. The three master suites are distributed on the second and third floors. An open bathtub, and other novel features give a playful and avant garde style. The mezzanine overlooking the living room is currently an art studio, with a sleeping loft, yet can morph into another lounge or master bedroom. The beautiful outdoor areas with an abundant collection of trees and native plants, invite you to dream, relax, or entertain guests. There is an ample rooftop with a collection of exotic cacti, and a pristine saltwater pool and jacuzzi on the ground floor. The house is offered with its collection of furnishings, ready for an imaginative spirit to take flight. If you are looking for contemporary, multi functional, and turnkey, the spectacular Kunsthaus is for you!!
