CASA CARMEN | San Miguel and Marfa vibes in Kerrville

This historic Spanish Bungalow features a freshly reappointed interior and exterior. Fully restored, the home was originally built in the 1920s, and boasts authentic charm with traditional white stucco exterior, clay tile roof, cantera stone and wood floors, plaster walls, french doors and windows, and custom lighting (almost all on dimmers).

Mexican talavera tile direct from San Miguel de Allende adorn the entire exterior from the terra-cotta walkway to the front door entry. Curb appeal is through the roof with a professional landscape design complete with lighting (on timers). The house is wrapped in patios, from the side courtyard to the lush backyard. There are mature shade trees, nine redbuds that bloom with vibrant color in spring, and a miniature agave garden in back. There is an abundance of outdoor furniture for dining al fresco and lounging. The side courtyard is floored in cantera stone and offers a cozy spot to observe passers by and enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning. There is a gas grill available for guests.

The owners have furnished the home with pieces from their own collection of antiques and vintage finds from several parts of the hill country and boasts original art. A cool-mix of mid-century classic, Spanish Art Deco with the texture of artisans from Mexico… you won't find anything quite like it. The main living and dining areas are large enough to host gatherings with it's open-concept design and access to the side courtyard. You'll find a comfy sectional to sink into or a swanky glass and brass dining table to enjoy a meal. The well-appointed kitchen is fully equipped with refrigerator, freezer (w/ ice maker), stove and other various small appliances, not to mention a separate coffee bar.

The master bedroom (king-sized bed) is oversized with plenty of room for extra furniture pieces, sitting area, and office/study area. Equipped with flat-screen hi-def television with access to a cable, HBO and Showtime. It's all in the details with high-quality linens, bedding, wooden hangers, provided paper and handmade pencils. The adjoining full bathroom is very unique featuring a custom Mexican Art Deco design mixing glass block, cantera stone and travertine materials. A true walk-in shower that will fit two. A Stackable washer/dryer unit is hidden behind louvered doors for your convenience. Shampoo, conditioner, body wash, plush white towels, hair dryer, iron, ironing board - it's all there for your benefit.

The second bedroom/den features a 42" flat-screen hi-def television with access to a dvd player, cable, HBO and Showtime. There is a glass shelved bar with everything you'll need to mix your favorite beverage. This space can be enjoyed as a second living area or easily closed off and converted into the second bedroom with the use of the sleeper sofa with memory foam mattress (this room also has it's own closet as well), guests can have their own bathroom and make use of the cream and blue talavera tiled full bathroom with walk-in shower and hand-pressed tin light fixture.

The house is equipped with a wireless internet cable modem for convenient access.

A Beautiful Weekend
My family and I traveled to the Kerrville/Fredericksburg area for a quick weekend to hike and climb Enchanted Rock. We really enjoyed our stay. The home is beautifully decorated and clean. I love the artwork displayed. We will certainly recommend this house to our family and friends!

Kerrville visit
The house was great. The only surprise was that it was listed as a two bedroom, but the second bed was an uncomfortable pull out couch. Had I read all the way through the description I might have seen that and been able to make a different reservation. In any case it is a nice house and we enjoyed our stay.

We stayed here to celebrate my brother’s birthday. There were several events in town we attended. This location was perfect and the house is super cute. Great indoor and outdoor spaces. 2 full bathrooms made it easy for getting ready. We loved it!

An inspired refuge
Great camper drop-off stay at this home, which truly lives up to its San Miguel Allende/Marfa comparison. Loved that so much of the historic charm of the home has been preserved, and it was beautifully appointed with vintage MCM and fine art. Bedroom was very comfortable for a couple, and our 10 year-old slept well on the pullout sofa (the mattress topper was a huge plus). Great location for Kerrville with easy access to everything in town. Will definitely book again.

Great casita
Overall our stay was wonderful. We loved the house and everything in it. It was charming, comfortable and a great location. The only negative was the sheets on the fold out sofa bed were not clean. They were left on the pull out and all wadded up and soiled. So the first night of sleep on the sofa with just a comforter wasn't the best. But the next day we washed the sheets and we were good to go. We had a great time exploring Kerrville and enjoyed our stay. Thank you
