From the upstairs windows, Lake Cajititlán appears between the treetops, with the hills beyond. Below, stone pathways wind through a garden of mature trees where mangoes, pomegranates, and guavas ripen in season, and in summer the flame trees paint everything red. The property covers 3,224 m² of land, 62 meters of frontage by 52 meters deep, enclosed by a full stone perimeter wall with an arched entrance straight out of a hacienda. Few properties in the area have both a private water well and three-phase electrical service; this one does. The house, built in 1980, offers 367 m² across two floors. It has 4 bedrooms, one full and one half bathroom, living and dining rooms, kitchen, fireplace, and a utility area, plus a pool ready to be restored. It needs renovation, and it's worth it: brick vaulted ceilings, stone walls, exposed brick, and arched windows form the kind of structure that is expensive to replicate today. It's the foundation for a country home with a character new construction can't match. At $4,850,000 MXN, the price works out to roughly $1,500 MXN per square meter of land, with the house included, in an area where newly walled lots and homes under construction are already appearing. The property is privately titled, free of liens, and zoned residential. Cash sale only. A weekend retreat, a lifelong country home, or the project you've been imagining for years: there's room here for all three.
