Casa Tijada, Gringo Gulch • Offered at: $1,225,000 USD
Nestled within the traditional cobblestone streets of Gringo Gulch, Casa Tijada surrounds itself with the gentle charm of Mexican Colonial architecture. The Villa offers panoramic views of the Banderas Bay to the west, the Sierra Madre Mountain range to the east and the terra cotta rooftops, Cuale river and Amapas Hills right in front.
