Piedra Blanca

Overview

Inspired by the rustic charm of Colonial-era Spanish missions, this expansive villa's revival style architecture reflects the unadorned beauty of this period. Exterior walls of crisp white stucco are protected by wide eaves covered in terracotta clay roof tiles, with a magnificent stone tower rising up at the front entrance. There is a central courtyard filled with modern sculpture and a desert garden that displays the flora of the nearby Sierra de la Laguna Mountains.

The white walls continue indoors, punctuated by massive wood doors, exposed stone facades and vaulted beamed ceilings. The neutral tones in the flooring and furnishings are brightened by the sun pouring in through large sliding glass doors to create a warm, soothing ambiance in the home. Interior design can be described as Baja chic, featuring a mix of contemporary art and décor along with a strong representation of Mexican folk art that is evident in the beautifully-woven rugs, vibrant linens, paintings, and pottery.

An earthy, simple elegance defines the look and feel of Piedra Blanca's open-concept living and dining area. Rustic wood tables and a large L-shaped sofa create a comfy and casual living room lounge. Adjacent is a gorgeous solid wood dining table with leather seating for eight and a breathtaking backdrop of sea and sky. Sliding barn doors painted with a colorful mosaic of reds and yellows open to reveal the gourmet kitchen. Combining beauty and functionality, the spacious kitchen features deluxe stainless steel appliances, a central prep island, extensive built-in cabinetry, creamy marble counters, and an intricate tile backsplash.

Each a luxurious private retreat, Piedra Blanca's five bedroom suites are impeccably decorated with plush beds and delightful décor, with exquisite en-suites that mirror the simple elegance of the villa's overall design. On the terrace, over 5,000 square feet of outdoor living are waiting to be enjoyed. The spectacular pool has a beach entry with a long, shallow sunning area and a hidden Jacuzzi bubbling away in the center. Flowing toward the azure waters of the Cortez, the pool ends in an infinity-edge waterfall, its soothing sounds creating a tranquil atmosphere for the casual beachfront lounge area on the other side.

Bringing guests even closer to sand and surf, the lower terrace has built-in sofa seating with a glowing fire pit in the center to warm the air on cool evenings. Just past the sofa lounge, cushioned recliners dot the terrace so guests can relax in the sun and take in the endless ocean views. Manicured grounds of green grass, flowering bougainvillea, soaring palms, and tropical trees add to the beauty and serenity of the outdoor spaces.
