Just around the corner is a sitting area with a fireplace around a sparkling swimming pool perfect for entertaining or lounging with a good book. Off the courtyard are two living areas with traditional colonial 15 ft. ceilings, a fireplace and a very old window seat right on the street providing a first hand view of all the parades and festivities San Miguel has to offer A first floor bathroom has colorful wall tile murals by the artist James Pinto.
