Spacious House with backyard outside the city

About this property

This character-filled house sits on a generous 800 m2 lot and presents a striking mix of materials that give it a personality unlike most properties in the area. The front facade combines hand-laid river stone columns framing a rounded archway entrance with exposed brick walls and large sliding windows beneath a warm terracotta tile roof. Lantern-style wall lights flank the entrance, adding a quiet elegance to the approach. Inside, the main living area is a spacious, open room where exposed brick walls, geometric patterned tile floors, and a textured white ceiling with vintage crystal chandeliers create a layered, lived-in warmth. A white-plastered pass-through window connects the main room to an adjacent space, keeping the floor plan open and communicative without losing definition between zones. Stairs visible from the living area lead to the upper level. The three bedrooms vary pleasingly in character. One features warm-toned parquet-style tile and dark wood built-in wardrobes with a textured ceiling. Another sits under the roofline with original hardwood plank flooring and a skylight that draws natural light directly into the room. A third bedroom with stripped pine floors and a sloping ceiling has a simple, loft-like quality. The bathrooms are finished with richly toned stacked-stone tile in the wet areas, paired with a rain showerhead and a bright window for ventilation. Outside, the property has two distinct exterior zones. The front features a lawn and a tiled walkway leading to the stone archway. The rear reveals a clean, tiled courtyard and an additional two-storey wing with its own windows, suggesting flexible use as additional living space, a studio, or workspace. Two parking spaces are included. The backdrop of a rocky hillside visible from the rear of the property rounds out a setting that feels grounded and distinctly Cuencano.
