CASA SEIS FUENTES
San Miguel de Allende, Mexico
5 Bedrooms and 6.5 Bathrooms (Sleeps 10)
Casa Seis Fuentes is an absolutely
beautifully renovated 300-year old casa with original three-foot
thick adobe walls. Its location, only three blocks from the Jardín,
the main square, is perfect as it offers guests an easy walk to many
shops and restaurants. Casa Seis Fuentes is spacious and bright
and throughout this wonderfully decorated house are many antique
furnishings. Everything has been done to ensure guests’ comfort and
all the very nicely appointed bedrooms have a bathroom en suite, TV,
separate volume control for the house stereo system, mini kitchen, fireplace and a private
terrace. Other
terrific features include a home theatre with a huge screen, fully equipped exercise room, a wine
cellar and a lovely rooftop terrace with spectacular 360-degree
views of the city and comfy chairs around a table under a pergola.
This fully staffed house has even been featured in
Architectural Digest.
Like so many great Mexican casas, Seis Fuentes has a
series of
enchanting terraces with flowing fountains and a
large loggia with a fireplace as well as dining and sitting areas.
It looks out to the beautifully landscaped courtyard, which has a
heated pool with a wall fountain.
The charm and style of the colonial period combined
with every modern convenience makes Casa Seis Fuentes one of the
most sought after houses in San Miguel.
