French Dreams
Sold
Mérida, Yucatán
Information
This immaculate, historical home was built in the early 1900’s especially for the children of General Francisco Gregorio Canton by a now famous Italian architect named Enrico Desarti. He is very well known in Merida because he also built the Palacio Canton located on our cherished Centro boulevard named Paseo de Montejo. He is also credited for our incredible Peon Contreras Theatre. In 2005 this home was lovingly restored by Henry Ponce and won 1st place in 2008 for the Most Authentic Historical Restoration. The ornate finished masterpiece has been featured in Architectural Digest and many other publications. Famed Interior Designer Steven Cheroske furnished Casa Kehoe with Classic European decor while in residence. This home features Colonial arches and French columns.
This original French Colonial remains elegantly inviting with gorgeous decorative pasta tile floors, 5.5 meter high ceilings and five well-proportioned bedrooms. One of the bedrooms is used as a conversation area or den. One of the bedrooms is on the main floor. Up the marble step staircase the upstairs principal bedroom has its own private West facing terrace that gives a great city view of Merida’s “Centro Historico”. Two completely screened interior courtyards one featuring a Dzitya stone cascading waterfall. The other has a gorgeous fountain surrounded by tropical plants in marble pots. This location can’t be beat, just mere blocks to amazing restaurants, coffee shops, Parque Santa Lucia, Palacio de la Música and many other notable places.
