Description
En el tradicional Barrio de Santa Catarina en la alcaldía Coyoacán sobre la calle de Melchor Ocampo casi esquina con Miguel Angel de Quevedo a la altura de la Comercial Mexicana, se encuentra esta casa en dos pisos construida en los años 50's en aquellos años que artistas e intelectuales como Dolores del Río, Riquelme, el Indio Fernández por nombrar algunos que se concentraban en Coyoacán.
La casa con una distribución hecha para las necesidades de una familia en aquella época: Gran estancia, medio baño, cocina muy amplia y cerrada, 2 recamaras con baño en PB.
En el primer piso tiene sala de estar tipo family room y 5 recamaras todas con baño, además de zonas de servicio como cuarto de lavado y balcón.
Esta construcción de dos pisos en 270 m2 en su planta baja y 250 m2 en la planta alta aprox. se desplaza sobre un terreno de casi 700 metros por lo que la cochera y el jardín quedan con mucho espacio. Hay un cálculo de 13 coches, sin embargo, cabrían de manera menos cómoda, otros más.
Al fondo hay también un estudio en PB y arriba un pequeño búngalo con una recamara, baño y cocineta, construcción independiente de la casa.
El uso de suelo de la zona había sido habitacional, pero en los últimos años han habido muchos cambios de uso de suelo que han beneficiado a varias construcciones vecinas por lo que es muy atractivo para oficinas o negocios.

Next steps for moving to Mexico
Interested in this property? Here's how to move forward.
Understand the buying rules
Foreign ownership laws vary wildly by country. Some welcome you, others restrict or ban foreign buyers entirely.
Sort out your visa
Owning property doesn't give you the right to live there. Research residency options before you buy.
Plan your finances
Understand currency risk, international wire transfers, and whether you can get a local mortgage.
Know your tax obligations
US citizens are taxed on worldwide income. You'll need to file US taxes from abroad and may owe local taxes too.
Set up healthcare
Medicare doesn't cover you overseas. You'll need international health insurance or a local plan.
Run the full checklist
Banking, mail forwarding, power of attorney, pet import rules — the complete pre-move checklist.
