Amazing Residential Lot In La Ceiba
Colm Cooney006637
Hacienda in Outside Mérida
Set within the peaceful Mayan pueblo of Tepakán, this beautifully restored colonial Quinta blends historic character with quiet countryside living. Hardwood trunk-beam ceilings, glowing pasta-tile floors, restored doors and windows, and antique furnishings give the home an atmosphere of warmth and authenticity.
The interiors flow with soft natural light and elegant illumination, leading to a thoughtfully updated cook’s kitchen finished with marble counters. The primary suite opens to a private outdoor soaking tub surrounded by greenery — a calm retreat for slow mornings and long, unhurried evenings. A separate guest casita with its own bath offers complete independence for visitors.
Outside, the property unfolds into a lush garden sanctuary with mature trees, shaded paths, and a filtered swimming pool set beside a graceful arched terrace. With solar panels, three freshwater wells, full irrigation, and a pressurized water system, the grounds remain vibrant in every season. Parking is conveniently located on the side, discreet yet accessible.
Tepakán is known for its gentle pace and authenticity. A handful of expatriates live in the pueblo, but the atmosphere remains predominantly local, traditional, and welcoming. A small market sits just steps away for essentials.

Mexico’s restricted zone runs 50 km inland from any coast and 100 km from any land border. A foreign buyer inside that zone holds title through a fideicomiso — a Mexican bank trust in which you are the named beneficiary, with the right to live in the property, rent it, remodel it, sell it and leave it to your heirs. Outside the zone a foreign buyer may hold title directly, with a permit from the Mexican government.
Which applies to this property depends on exactly where it sits. Ask us and we will tell you before you spend anything.
The purchase completes before a notario público, a state-appointed lawyer, and typically takes 30–60 days.
