Villa Paradiso is located in an exclusive gated community with 24/7 security. Elegantly designed and built by Gene Fortune and Mauricio Vázquez Higuera, the home features a double-height living room with five brick copalas and splendid views of Lake Chapala and the mountains. The space blends seamlessly to create a warm and comfortable atmosphere, complemented by four charming hand-carved fireplaces, one main covered terrace, and a solar-heated infinity pool.

The impressive kitchen is equipped with top-of-the-line “Sub Zero/Wolf” appliances and fixtures. The primary bedroom and bathroom offer generous spaces and magnificent views. A cozy library connects to two additional bedrooms, each with its own bathroom and walk-in closet. The home is surrounded by inviting terraces and patios where lush plants enhance its beauty.

The main level also includes a breakfast nook, dining room, laundry room, and study. One level below, you’ll find a casita with a living room/bedroom, dining area, fully equipped kitchen with breakfast bar, two bathrooms, sauna, laundry room, storage room, and an additional bedroom/exercise room.

The house receives its water supply from an aquifer and a well, with three 2,500-liter tanks located beneath the garage floor, which provide water through a hydropneumatic system.
