The house where the land meets the sky.
I live here now.
The house is a silent observer of the mountain.
Walking around feels like a surreal dream.
Solar heated pool for those winter days.
Inside you are alone with the mountain.
Fits two comfortably!
Somewhere in between this world and the next.
Concho, a local cattle herder picked us up to climb up the mountain before breakfast.
It was Moral’s first time on a horse. We were in good hands.
Perched gracefully on the foot of the mountain, Casa Eterea is popular with its neighbors.
Sunset overlooking San Miguel de Allende Valley.
Highs & Lows
-
The highlight of our stay was the tour of the mountain on horseback. The neighbor, Concho, a local cattle herder, arrived at our doorstep and guided us up the peaks of Los Picachos, high above San Miguel de Allende.
-
The lack of vehicle access and sparse population in the mountains have preserved an exceptional biodiversity including hawks, foxes, white-tailed deer and mountain lions. Not to mention the herds of domestic goat and cattle that graze the mountainside right up against the property.
-
The orientation of the house is entirely focused on the wild mountainside, its perch isolated and nestled in undisturbed nature. Whether your visit be in the winter, summer, or rain — the environment and its surroundings are robust and full of life.

Be prepared to shed a tear upon your departure.
