Tucked into the charming and increasingly sought-after neighborhood of San Sebastián, Casa de Oliver offers a compelling blend of traditional character, generous proportions, and modern upgrades—all just steps from one of Mérida’s most beloved parks. Fully furnished and move-in ready, this versatile property functions beautifully as a private residence, multi-generational home, or income-generating investment with its fully independent guest house.

Set on a wide 9-meter lot—a rare find in Centro—the home immediately stands out for its sense of space, privacy, and thoughtful layout. From the moment you enter, you’re welcomed by soaring beamed ceilings, vibrant pasta tile floors, and a sense of openness that flows seamlessly from interior living to outdoor enjoyment.

At the heart of the home, a spacious living room (15’ x 27’) showcases custom built-in shelving, concrete accents, and traditional materials that give the property a grounded, authentic feel—while still delivering comfort and functionality. The adjacent kitchen is anchored by a marble-topped island and equipped with updated appliances, making it ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.

The main bedroom suite offers privacy and comfort with its en-suite bathroom and walk-in closet, while an additional flexible room serves perfectly as an office, studio, or fourth bedroom depending on your needs.

Toward the rear of the property, the home opens up to a lush and private outdoor setting. A large filtered swimming pool (with a new pump installed in 2025) is surrounded by a patio finished in classic pasta tile, complemented by a garden with a decorative rock wall feature. High perimeter walls ensure complete privacy, while an outdoor shower adds to the experience.


A standout feature is the fully independent guest house, complete with two bedrooms, a spacious bathroom with open-air shower, and its own kitchenette—ideal for hosting guests or generating rental income.

San Sebastián continues to gain traction among buyers seeking a more authentic, residential feel within Centro—while still being within easy reach of Mérida’s key attractions. With parks, local markets, and everyday conveniences nearby, the area offers a balanced lifestyle that blends tranquility with accessibility.

What owning this actually involves

Mérida Centro is inside Mexico’s restricted zone, which runs 50 km inland from any coast. A foreign buyer here holds title through a fideicomiso — a Mexican bank trust in which you are the named beneficiary. It is not a lease: you can live in the property, rent it, remodel it, sell it and leave it to your heirs. The term is 50 years and it renews.

The purchase completes before a notario público, a state-appointed lawyer, and typically takes 30–60 days.
