luxury property with terrace for sale Cuautla, 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.

Do you want to be part of history? Are you looking to be the guardian of a national heritage? Are you passionate about rescuing fragments of Mexico and joining the pieces together for a new legacy? The Nancarrow-O'Gorman Studios are a unique opportunity that cannot be repeated. The history of these two houses dates back to the friendship between two titans of art: On the one hand, Conlon Nancarrow, the greatest composer of experimental and mechanized music of the 20th century, and on the other hand, Juan O'Gorman, one of the Fantastic Five of 20th-century Mexican art. In 1940, Conlon Nancarrow, after being harassed by the government of his country, the United States, decided to go into exile in Mexico and was welcomed by his friend and supporter, Juan O'Gorman, who in 1948 built him a first house on this land. The artistic importance of this house is immeasurable. It contains the largest collection of petromurals (Juan O'Gorman's signature technique) in a private space. These murals were nothing more and nothing less than the preliminary essay for his magnum opus, the petromurals of the Central Library of Ciudad Universitaria, now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. And they were recently restored by the National Institute of Fine Arts and Literature (INBAL). So, having such a significant artistic discourse on the walls of your own home is a feat worthy of great pride and responsibility. The opportunity and significance of acquiring a piece of this country's history through this tangible event are once in a lifetime. In this first stage of construction, we also find a mystical recording studio, acoustically isolated and designed by Conlon Nancarrow himself. Impenetrable to worldly noise and capable of reproducing only the beat of your heart. It was within this space that Nancarrow worked much of his magic, presenting the most eccentric and creative pieces and instruments to be performed for the world to see. A vintage modernist kitchen brimming with character, a bedroom with a full bathroom and built-in fireplace, and the foyer/entrance/dining room surrounded by O'Gorman petromurals face a beautiful, deep, mature garden surrounded by towering trees that sway the air as you pass by. This first stage of construction culminates in a gloomy, hidden cellar-like passageway and an enigmatic two-story library housing part of Conlon Nancarrow's private book collection. The second stage of construction is a house located at the far end of the land and connected to the first house by a corridor. It has the distinction of being the last house built by Juan O'Gorman as an architect, a profession from which he retired more than 20 years ago at the time (in the early 1950s) due to personal disillusionment. Built in the 1970s, it bears all of O'Gorman's hallmarks (volcanic rocks, ironwork, and exposed beam and vault ceilings). A kitchen, living and dining room overlooking the lush garden, a small terrace/greenhouse overlooking the same garden, a cozy wood-burning fireplace in the living room, a utility room with a full bathroom, and a half guest bathroom complete the ground floor. Upstairs, we have three bedrooms that share two full bathrooms and a spectacular studio with its own balcony and terrace, offering 360° views of the treetops and Juan O'Gorman's petromurals. A true pulse for all the senses. Up to 10 vehicles in a row can be accommodated within the evocative and picturesque 50-meter corridor that welcomes us to this historic property. This corridor is so extensive that it also lends itself to different scenarios, including mural interventions. An untouchable and immeasurable canvas (petromurals) accompanies and dances across several dusty canvases in this magical place, laden with symbolism. Imagination soars to transform and design new scenarios for these spaces.

Mexico Sotheby’s International Realty presents the Majestic House that belonged to Irma Serrano “La Tigresa,” an iconic figure of Mexican culture whose life was filled with color, passion, and overflowing talent. Located in the heart of Avenida Paseo de la Reforma, a place where history and glamour intertwine in every corner. Since its inauguration, the house has been a refuge of creativity and splendor, where music and art resonated within its walls, echoing the vibrant life of its owner. Built in a classic architectural style, it is an example of a mid-20th century luxury residence with eclectic and European neoclassical flair. “La Tigresa's” house stands as a symbol of its time. Inside, the salons, decorated where art and luxury meet, were the backdrop for memorable dinners and dazzling events, where influential figures from cinema, politics, and entertainment gathered. Artists, writers, and political leaders have crossed its threshold, turning every encounter into a celebration of life and creativity. Irma Serrano, with her charisma and talent, attracted the elite of society, creating an atmosphere where ideas flourished and dreams were shared. In this sense, her home can be compared to the splendor of Catherine the Great's palace in Russia, who, like Irma, used her residence to celebrate the culture and politics of her country, but in a context of monarchy and absolute power. In her property, Irma Serrano was the queen of the night, creating an environment where creativity and art intertwined with high society. Just as Catherine the Great surrounded her palace with artists and intellectuals, La Tigresa gathered the greatest talents of her time in her home, leaving an indelible mark on Mexico's cultural history. By acquiring this unique property, the new owner will not only take charge of a house but also a legacy. A collection of invaluable items that belonged to Irma Serrano “La Tigresa” will be handed over, each with its own story, memories, and magic, such as the representative painting at the entrance of the house, where Irma Serrano appears in the style of the “Maja Desnuda.” As a special touch, a "lucky box" will be part of this transaction, containing a mysterious art object that only the buyer will know about. This hidden treasure symbolizes the very essence of La Tigresa: a touch of intrigue and the promise of new adventures and good fortune, inviting the new owner to continue the legend of a home that was, and always will be, an icon of Mexico City where luxury prevails throughout history on the most important avenue.
