The San Miguel de Allende neighborhood of Centro"the very heart of town"proves the most popular destination for American buyers seeking freedom from a car because everything is walking distance and Centro's Casa Privada proves only a 12-minute walk to the town square. Combine that walking distance equation with the lure of the calm oasis of a quiet, gated community with a 24-hour doorman. This Centro home sits adjacent to a greenbelt and waterway, giving the feel of a quiet countryside estate. Offering step-free single-level living"the primary suite opens to a private garden, and offers a dual-showerhead, dual-sink marble bathroom with walk-in closet and carved-stone fireplace. The 2nd level offers two en-suite bedrooms and a media room, while the ample 2nd floor terrace"surrounded by green trees maximizing privacy"overlooks the afore-mentioned adjacent greenbelt and waterway, providing a cooling and evergreen environment, extremely rare for a Centro location.
