Do you ever feel like you were born to carry a silk parasol, or perhaps a brass walking stick?  If you long for the classic elegance of a bygone era, you're in the right place.  Brew a cup of tea, make yourself comfortable, and spend some time pouring over the photos of this mansion.  It's the kind of sprawling property that you'll want to stroll through in the early morning when the dew is still fresh on the grass, taking in the water trickling down the fountain and perhaps enjoying a light breakfast in the corner of the lawn or a moment of solitude in the Secret Garden.

The home is situated on 1,000 meters of land, a 15-minute walk above Centro in the most desirable part of this well established, developed neighborhood.  As you might expect, the view is magnificent and spans the Parroquia and other main churches, the city, the lake and the surrounding mountains.

It offers multiple entertaining areas, both indoors and out.  In addition to the lawn and garden, there's a spacious, covered outdoor dining area shaded by mature trees and greenery.   The fireplace is wood burning, and the accompanying outdoor kitchen is stylish, complete and will allow you to prepare sumptuous meals while enjoying the fresh air.

The interior is no less stately, with chandeliers and marble floors, and brings to mind ballroom gowns and after-dinner gatherings in the parlor.  The living room and dining room face expansive, arched windows that frame the terrace and beyond that, the magnificent view.  They also feature a dramatic wood burning fireplace and sit next to the music room, so that you and your guests can be entertained as you dine and relax.

The well-appointed kitchen has been recently remodeled and provides more than ample storage, two cooktops and a lovely view into the Secret Garden.  Alongside the kitchen is a comfy breakfast nook with a large window that also looks out to the garden.   For a change of pace, a fully equipped grill room is located immediately off the kitchen.

Moving through the first floor, you'll arrive at one of the en suite bedrooms.  The floor to ceiling windows will catch your eye first, as they offer a great view of the verdant landscaping.  The fireplace is welcoming, and the proportions are generous.  The bathroom is equally spacious and it, too, features wonderfully large windows and breathtaking views to the city.   Ever more windows enclose the  tub and look out to the backyard and protected green areas surrounding the house.  You'll also appreciate the double sinks, wall to wall mirrors and the extensive cabinetry apart from the large walk-in closet.

Downstairs maintains the same elegant ambiance with a central sitting area, four more master suites and the conveniences you would expect in a home of this stature.  The first master suite is distinguished by its fleur de lis theme and includes its own fireplace and private door to the main garden.  The bathroom boasts marble tile  and tub.  The second suite similarly includes a fireplace and doors to the main garden.  Its bathroom features an opulent black and gold theme, and the tub sits against a large window that backs up to lush greenery. The third master is decorated with understated, faux finish wainscoting, warm colors and has a glass enclosed shower.  The fourth master suite boasts multiple rich finishes, from the golden ceiling to the wood flooring, and in the bathroom, another large window looking out into the garden.

Also downstairs are the home office and workout area with access and views to a small garden. After all that hard work, treat yourself to a rubdown in the adjacent private massage room.  And when you're ready for fun, the media room is just steps away.  Big enough for entertaining, it includes its own bar and game table.  You can also pop some popcorn and enjoy a movie, or simply relax in front of the fireplace.   On a clear night, head up to the rooftop terrace, pour yourself a drink at the bar and enjoy the built-in seating, fire pit, water feature, and those truly spectacular views.

Some additional amenities are the two-car garage, a four car carport, and the free standing, traditional Mexican casita.  It's fully equipped, has four bedrooms and is perfectly suited for employees  The purchase also includes a lot that sits just below the property and guarantees that your views will remain protected.

At the end of the day, this home is a timeless classic, inside and out.  Buy it today and recreate your own personal era of days gone by.
