luxury properties with reception room for sale Mexico City, Mexico

Do you want to live in the middle of an authentic forest, far from the hustle and bustle of the city... but without leaving the city of México? Are you looking for a vacation home, a retirement home, or a holiday home... but without having to travel all the way long until you get to Cuernavaca or Valle de Bravo? Castle Manuel Parra is what you are looking for. Because living in a wooded area, in a ravine, in front of a park... is not the same as living immersed in an ecological reserve with more than 4,600 sqm of private land just for you... inside Mexico City. Castle Manuel Parra means living at the foot of the Ajusco mountains and finding your haven of peace, without leaving the great metropolis. Unprecedented, right? Welcome to the Tlalpuente II reserve... with its great detail: Security. Since Tlalpuente II is a private gated community that has 24/7 surveillance and security cameras throughout the condominium. Live peacefully in every sense, live to the fullest. But the Manuel Parra Tower is not only a walking nature but an architectural project itself, of great size and scope. It was built by none other than one of the most emblematic architects of the 20th century in Mexico: Manuel Parra. Parra is known for being the soul and spirit of the endearing San Ángel Inn neighborhood, having built more than 40 houses in the area and also for having made the most beautiful residences in Lomas de Chapultepec, Jardines del Pedregal, and Coyoacán, being the fortress of Emilio “El Indio” Fernández, his most famous thesis, where great films from the golden age of national cinema were filmed and where the most outstanding figures of the entertainment world have passed through, from Marilyn Monroe to María Félix. A very peculiar feature of Parra's constructions is that his house's materials were recycled from old haciendas and neoclassical and colonial houses that were demolished in Mexico City to open large avenues and road axes. So you can be sure that inside this house you will own an important piece of the great city, treasuring its legacy and preserving its history. Without a doubt, it is a highly conscious recycling concept for today's needs. You have peace, security, silence, privacy, design, history, architecture, and an ideal of recycling with its bonus: The house is located in an ecological reserve, which implies that there are guidelines to preserve the ecosystem; such as eliminating garden irrigation and allowing seasonal rain to mark the seasons of the year, as well as there being no lights in common areas to respect the circadian cycle of native species of fauna and flora, and also encouraging the owners to use eco-technologies inside their houses such as rainwater collection cisterns (which this house has) and solar panels for water and electricity. Interesting details to consider are the materials used in the construction of the house: You will have an endless variety of wood, many of which are already impossible to obtain today: such as mahogany, parota, machiche, tampicirán, mesquite, sabino, and pine. The ceramic tiles that adorn the interiors of the house were made by the famous and multi-award-winning artist from Morelos, Gorky González, National Prize for Sciences and Arts 1992, and several international recognitions. Casa Manuel Parra is located within the residential complex called Tlalpuente II (San Buenaventura), which is the sister and neighbor of the Tlalpuente residential. Maintaining the same security, topographical boundaries, and ecological guidelines as its famous sister. Don't think twice! Castle Manuel Parra is your perfect escape from routine and everyday life, find something different, original, and authentic.
