Elegant Home by Robby Friedman

INTRODUCTION This property is a thoughtfully designed contemporary residence located in San Miguel de Allende, offering a solid and well-considered alternative to the city traditional architecture. Architectural design by Architect Robbie Friedman, known for creating functional and well-distributed spaces. The home stands out for its intelligent use of natural light, verticality and split levels, creating a comfortable, fluid and character-filled living experience. Far from being a generic proposal, this is a home meant to be lived in, explored and understood through its architecture. Being contemporary does not distance this home from the spirit of San Miguel de Allende; on the contrary, it connects with the city from a different perspective. This is not a modern box, but a well-resolved architectural work that engages with its surroundings without imitation. With open areas, interior visual connections, a view terrace and a layout designed for everyday living, this home proves that contemporary design can also have presence, warmth and soul in one of Mexico most iconic cities. MAIN ENTRANCE / LIVING ROOM / KITCHEN / DINING AREA The facade is minimalist and contemporary, featuring a small garden that frames the main entrance and the garage door, immediately setting the tone for the clean and well-thought-out interior design. Upon entering, a discreet entry closet is integrated into the main corridor. From this point on, the home most distinctive architectural elements become evident: double-height ceilings, dynamic split levels and a constant sense of openness. The dining area connects directly to the kitchen, both conceived as open and highly functional spaces with contemporary finishes. On a slightly elevated split level, the living room offers strong visual openness and connection to the rest of the home. A strategically placed fireplace provides warmth without dominating the space, reinforcing the vertical continuity of the design. PRIMARY BEDROOM AND PRIMARY BATHROOM The primary bedroom is located on the second level and accessed via the main staircase at the rear of the home. This private area is organized by a distribution corridor with access to a generously sized closet and the primary bathroom. The bathroom features a minimalist and functional layout, divided into two independent sections allowing simultaneous use. A discreet window provides abundant natural light while maintaining privacy. The shower is positioned at the far end of the bathroom, partially concealed and seamlessly integrated into the design. SECOND BEDROOM AND GARAGE The second bedroom is located on a lower level and benefits from good natural light due to its street-level position. This level also includes a full bathroom and additional storage. The garage is accessed directly from the south-facing street, with space suitable for an SUV and automatic garage doors. Mechanical systems are efficiently integrated in this area. THIRD LEVEL / LAUNDRY AREA / TERRACE The third level features a dedicated laundry area with washer and dryer, as well as an independent ironing space. From here, a door leads to the terrace, offering panoramic views of San Miguel de Allende. Sunrises and seasonal fireworks can be enjoyed while maintaining a high level of privacy.
