House for sale in the city center

A unique place and an opportunity to experience the true Mexican culture that began in the 17th century, where pre-Hispanic and Spanish cultures blended to create what makes Mexico unique today. A home where the melting pot of Mexican history is present in every corner. This house was built in 1640 and is the oldest inhabited house in Mexico City. It has witnessed history unfolding through its doors, a witness to time and of time, firm on its foundations, ready to reveal its secrets. It was built on the site where the ceremonial temple of the Mexica god Tezcatlipoca once stood. It underwent an intensive conservation process that restored almost its entire original structure; teams of masons, carpenters, and blacksmiths participated in the restoration, guided by a team of master craftsmen and restorers whose names are inscribed on the stone of the central courtyard. It is one of the few 17th-century buildings that have recovered their constituent elements to continue fulfilling the function their construction dictated: their use as family homes. This building recreates the city's past and the society that has inhabited it, with its changes and enduring traditions. Located next to the Templo Mayor and the Zócalo, two of Mexico City's most iconic and popular tourist destinations, this property offers a direct connection to the city's vibrant past and present. With 650 square meters of land and 1,450 square meters of construction, and approved zoning for neighborhood impact, the ground floor features a separate space suitable for a restaurant, offices, or a hotel. It includes three en-suite bedrooms and living areas, a dining room, lounges, a bar, a fully equipped kitchen, three patios, and a rooftop terrace with incredible views. Commercially, it is ideal for a magnificent hotel where guests can immerse themselves in a unique and historical experience. The central courtyard could house a large restaurant, complementing the impressive existing kitchen. This house also features a street-level commercial space ideal for any type of business, as well as a small bar or restaurant that can diversify the complementary experiences offered by this beautiful space. This property not only represents a unique opportunity to acquire a piece of living Mexican history, but also a versatile space adaptable to multiple uses. It truly is a space unparalleled in its character, history, and beauty. $790,000 MXN rent. Transfer fee: $12 million MXN.
