        The Villa named “Soft Breezes” because of its location on a pinnacle within 17 private acres (7 Hectares) of native grass and vegetation is perfectly sited in the most prestigious country setting available in San Miguel de Allende. This classically elegant Tuscan-style Villa consists of two spacious Master Bedroom Suites on the main first level plus a one Bedroom Apartment (Casita) on the upper level of the 3 car garage but accessible from the main house. There are 4.5 bathrooms. The Grand Scale of the home features a formal living room with fireplace and chandelier with a connecting mirror image formal dining room with its duplicate fireplace and chandelier, both with 21 foot ceiling heights and French doors opening onto the massive stone terrace of 95 feet in length overlooking the expansive valley of the Rio Laja and the Sierra Madre Mountain Range of Central Mexico. To complement these formal public rooms is an invitingly comfortable wood paneled Library / Media room also with fireplace and French doors to the outdoor entertainment terrace. For your at-home pleasure there is a Gourmet Kitchen outfitted with superior appliances and quality handmade wood cabinets that blend in with the 30 foot trestle ceiling that extends into a charming breakfast / informal dining area with its own stone fireplace. For entertainment requirements, there is a full service pantry and wine cellar. All these Villa scale rooms are accessible from the 60 foot main gallery which is designed as a formal transept to either side of the main entrance foyer. For country vistas there is a 40 foot extension of the long terrace for informal dining / cocktails with cooking facilities for alfresco entertaining with sunset vistas of the silhouetted purple outlines of the mountains in the far distance. This unique home of incredible quality design and workmanship features architectural details throughout the interiors and the exterior with its massive stone façade and eight chimneys. It is truly a thrill to arrive at your elegant circular fountain entrance having driven from the gated main entrance on your private quarter mile serpentine cobblestone roadway.

This property is truly a personal retreat with acreage, privacy and scenery as well as one having investment value for the future.
