It's with great enthusiasm that we present Casa Mudejar, a property that not only stands as a testament to architectural brilliance but also embodies the rich tapestry of Puerto Rican heritage, specifically within the esteemed Miramar neighborhood.

Casa Mudejar is a distinguished creation by Francisco Roldan Martino, a name synonymous with architectural innovation and a pioneer of the Spanish and Mudejar architectural revival in Puerto Rico. Designed in 1926, this property is among the final works in Puerto Rico by Roldan Martino, marking it as a significant piece of the island's architectural legacy. Roldan Martino, known for his significant contributions to Puerto Rico's architectural landscape, including the Ateneo Puertorriqueno and the maternity building of Hopital Auxilio Mutuo, infused Casa Mudejar with the distinctive characteristics of Mudejar art.

The property's architectural details, from the ornate wrought iron and mosaic decorations to the stained glass that adorns spaces with light and color, reflect the Mudejar influence that Roldan Martino championed. The layout of Casa Mudejar, with its various communal and private spaces, invites opportunities for gatherings, offering an intimate connection to the property's architectural heritage.

As you step into the 4,153 square foot property, you are greeted by a residence that gracefully balances historical authenticity with the potential for modern revitalization. The main house, featuring three ensuite bedrooms on the second floor and a layout that promises both privacy and connectivity, is complemented by independent guest quarters, offering a versatile space for family and friends. The property's thoughtful design includes a driveway with covered parking, a spacious two-car garage, and a kitchen that opens to a secluded patio, adorned with wrought iron and mosaic decorations that pay homage to its Mudejar roots.

The heart of Casa Mudejar lies in its communal areas, where large arched doorways connect the indoors to a lush garden, creating an inviting atmosphere for gatherings. The backyard, with its shade roof, bar, and barbecue area, has been the setting of countless memorable moments. Meanwhile, the staircase, with its stained-glass windows, leads to a master bedroom that is a sanctuary of light and color, thanks to its unique stained-glass features.

The Miramar neighborhood is renowned for its tranquility, outstanding restaurants, and proximity to private schools. Miramar's pedestrian-friendly streets, fine arts movie theater, fine dining, luxurious Club Nautica marina, and the nearby beaches of Escambron and Playita del Condado offer a lifestyle filled with leisure and cultural enrichment. The designation of Miramar as a Historic Town protects its rich architectural legacy, ensuring that its charm and character are preserved for future generations.

As the homeowner, you have the unique opportunity to bring Casa Mudejar into the 21st century, blending its historical essence with modern comforts. This property is not just a house for sale in Puerto Rico; it's a piece of Puerto Rican heritage, a cornerstone of San Juan real estate, and a rare find among Miramar properties. Here, you will find more than a home; you will discover a community and a way of life steeped in the richness of Puerto Rican culture and the tranquil elegance of Miramar living. Welcome to a world where the past and present meet to create a future filled with possibility and promise.
