Architecturally superb, this dazzling white compound in Fracc. Playas de San Felipe is wrapped in eight-foot privacy walls and organized around inner courtyards, lush gardens and waterfalls that cascade into two beautiful pools. It feels more like a private boutique resort than a typical home, with multiple outdoor sitting areas, shaded walkways and a strong indoor–outdoor flow. There are luxurious guest quarters plus an oversized 2,000 ft² (186 m²) garage with enough room for up to eight cars or a 26-foot boat with space to spare. Family living quarters are equally impressive: a large, open living room, dining room and kitchen area, three beautiful bedrooms and full baths, and a full-size, multi-person jacuzzi bathtub inside the house for true spa-level relaxation. The location is prime. You are about five minutes’ drive from the malecón, the downtown seafront boardwalk with restaurants, shopping and entertainment. Just three minutes away is the pier where fishing boats and yachts dock, and the road to the private airport runs near the house, adding extra convenience for owners and guests who fly in. The estate was designed and its construction personally overseen by the owners, taking eight years to complete to a very high standard. All utilities are on city services, and the property includes central air conditioning and heating, a solar-heated pool and internet connection. There are beautiful views of the Sea of Cortez from many areas of the property, while the back of the estate looks toward the desert and mountains. This is a turn-key, fully furnished estate and a rare opportunity to live “like royalty” in San Felipe.
