Carlota’s dream

A property created from a dream

The property was conceived by Carlota Zuleta de Martínez as a place to live surrounded by light, air, sun, nature and beauty.

A property designed to open onto the landscape, to welcome, to rest and to enjoy life.

That dream became an extraordinary property where architecture, gardens and landscape come together as one experience.

Today, the property has an identity of its own.

The property

Architecture with its own identity

The property comprises two independent houses, built in two stages, with signature architecture by renowned architects Arturo Robledo and Ángela Jiménez.

The first was built in 1998, with approximately 486 m², and the second in 2009, with approximately 290 m². Both respond naturally to Barichara’s traditional architecture and to the site’s natural slope.

Rammed earth, adobe, bahareque, Barichara stone, wood and clay tile combine with generous spaces, courtyards, corridors, terraces and gardens.

The result is architecture that does not compete with Barichara: it belongs to it.

Materials that speak of the place. · Spaces open to the light. · Architecture in dialogue with the landscape.

The experience

A property to be lived

More than 2,000 m² of gardens surround the houses.

Mature trees, terraces, a pool and a caney create different spaces to gather, converse, rest or simply enjoy the landscape.

The two houses share that quality that is so difficult to design: space without feeling impersonal; privacy without isolation; openness without losing intimacy.

This is not simply about owning a property in Barichara.

Se trata de It is about how it feels to live here.
