CASA DE ANGELES
A Private Colonial Estate in the Heart of Merida
A traditional colonial facade, one of hundreds in the historic center — and then the door opens. Inside, the house unfolds the way the best Merida homes do: room by room, courtyard by courtyard, each turn rewarding you with light, height, and green.
This is a house that has stood for 130 years and been cared for into its second century — five bedrooms, fourteen rooms, one level, and a way of living that simply does not come up for sale very often.
Principal ceilings rise nearly twenty feet, giving the main living spaces a volume and light you feel the moment you walk in.
Twenty-one solar panels offset daily energy use — a rare upgrade layered quietly onto a colonial-era home.
Evenings happen outside, by the water, under the palms — not squeezed into a side yard but built into how the home flows.
The property sits on an oversized parcel — a rare find in Centro, where privacy is usually the first thing sacrificed.
Five bedrooms and three baths mean family, guests, or visitors each get their own quiet corner of the house.
Live in it, share it with family, or run it as a boutique retreat — the layout adapts to whichever life you bring to it.
The first interior rooms set the tone: tall walls, warm color, patterned tile, and furniture that feels collected rather than staged.
Nothing announces itself. The house simply begins, and you already feel the difference in the air.
The principal salon introduces the scale of Casa de Angeles. Its soaring ceiling, generous proportions, and original floors create a dramatic space that remains warm, inviting, and deeply livable.
The effect is not theatrical. It is architectural.
Where the home's collected antiques and soaring ceilings meet in one welcoming room — with the courtyard and fountain framed through arched iron-and-glass doors.
A gracious setting for dinners that begin indoors and continue toward the courtyard.
One of the home's signature rooms: a practical working kitchen with the atmosphere of a traditional Yucatecan home. Color, tilework, and cabinetry bring warmth and personality to everything cooked and shared here.
A private retreat with grand proportions and a calm, hotel-like atmosphere.
Each of the bedroom suites has its own personality: soaring yellow walls and original patterned floors in one, polished blue concrete and lavender tones in another.
Together they let the home live comfortably as a family residence, a guest estate, or a retreat with room for everyone who matters.
The bathrooms continue the home's language of calm materials and indoor-outdoor connection. A freestanding stone tub, soft natural light, and a direct view toward the pool create a resort-like experience without sacrificing the authenticity of the house.
One level, front to back: the sequence of rooms, courtyards, pool, and private spaces across the full 58.5-meter depth of the lot.
A luxury single-family colonial residence, approximately 130 years old. Measurements from the January 2026 appraisal.
Some houses in Centro are beautiful to walk through and hard to actually live in. Casa de Angeles is the opposite. Everything sits on one level. The pool is steps from the kitchen. Five bedrooms give everyone room without anyone feeling far away. And the solar array quietly covers the daily cost of keeping it all running.
Then there is the setting: the historic center of Merida, with the plaza, the markets, the galleries, and the restaurants of one of the most livable historic cities in the Americas within easy reach — behind your own wall, in your own garden.
A single-story colonial estate with the scale and privacy of a much larger property.
Room for children, parents, and friends — each with a suite of their own.
A layout that could welcome guests as a boutique stay, if that life ever calls.
Casa de Angeles is offered for sale at $13,000,000 MXN,
