Mexico City, Ciudad de Mexico, 11000

Casa San Diego is doubtless the perfect mix between the traditional Lomas de Chapultepec vibe with modern luxury and comfort.

Located in a privileged street lined with luscious trees, this house has a lot of character. While it preserves its original Californian style features, such as arches and quarry columns, it was fully renovated to the core in 2012. It incorporated high-end finishes, appliances, and even an extra space in the yard that can be used as a comfortable office, a library, a bar, or a playroom. There is a wine cellar and a smoke room in the recently-created basement.

The two-story house was perfectly designed for a family that appreciates every one´s private space, but that also cherishes moments of quality time together. The rooms are warm and bright, the bathrooms have floor-to-ceiling marble plates, and generous walk-in closets. There is a family room on each floor. The Italian kitchen is modern, and features granite and high-end appliances. It is the perfect setting for cooking, but also, for inviting friends to start a gathering here.

The living and dining rooms are sophisticated places that you won’t want to leave. The staircase is an important component of the house, as it is a piece of art itself.

A key element of the house is how the outside green trees appear to be trying to get into the house at all times. A couple of Jacarandas will turn the main room's living room into a postcard during the spring months. Nothing will beat the luxury of drinking a coffee in the morning with this view, in the privacy of your own quarters.
