Perched hillside in eastern Centro of historic San Miguel de Allende, the Los Arcangeles condominium project, once the grounds of a famous hacienda, now complete with biometric security, covered parking garage, pool, spa, and historically-preserved clubhouse, hosts this 2-story San Gabriel townhome model. If you’re visual, picture an upper west side brownstone on 71 st facing Riverside Park with Chrysler Building views, all done by an internationally acclaimed interior designer…say, a Peter Marino but without the Village People getup. And that’s Casa Tequila!

This all-inclusive turnkey beauty, the owner is indeed a New York/Mexico City-based designer, has been fully retrofitted with Manhattan loft-style appointments and, truly unique to all the San Gabriel models here, now has a garden and Parroquia-view terrace off the master suite for sunset city viewing. Upgrades include the raw-brick fireplace, raw-timber consoles, designer entertainment center, all-new kitchen with massive walk-in pantry, skylit oversized walk-in master closet, cantera stone stairs, architectural-salvage entry door, and fully-fitted outdoor kitchen and private garden terrace. Casa Tequila makes an ideal pied-à-terre highly rentable when not in residence.

This 15-year-old complex boasts mature lush landscaping throughout, and the pool and public entertainment BBQ terrace are a short, flat walk from Casa Tequila. Owners use biometric access to enter the large gated parking garage up the hill, your one space is deeded, with similar access for the lower pedestrian door for that short stroll to the Jardin for your favorite Dean & DeLuca-style morning pit stop! If you’re in a New York State of Mind but love the 480-year-old historic heart of San Miguel de Allende, this townhome will steal your heart. Come view it at sunset with me, I’ll pour the martinis while the Chairman sings for us on the terrace!
