Hidden behind wrought-iron gates and a classic Spanish Colonial facade on historic Escalinata de las Monjas, this bespoke restored garden-level duplex offers exceptional privacy, combining period character with refined modern craftsmanship. Reimagined by architect Nataniel Fuster of Fuster + Architects, among the Caribbean’s most internationally published and award-winning practices, the residence reads as a quiet dialogue between history and contemporary design. Spanning approximately 1,209 square feet, Residence 5 at 102 Escalinata de las Monjas features a kitchen and dining gallery anchored by 17-foot vaulted ceilings and overhead skylights. Private outdoor space is provided across both levels, including a private interior patio and a city-view rooftop terrace. Terracotta flooring, exposed wood-beam ceilings, and original shuttered doors preserve the home's architectural heritage, while updates such as custom glass inserts ensure climate control and modern formatting. The main level offers an open living and dining area centered around a 14-foot custom Poliform Alea kitchen equipped with Sub-Zero refrigeration and a Miele cooktop. The primary suite connects directly to a private patio featuring an outdoor shower, while the upper level accommodates a second suite with access to the rooftop deck. Situated moments from the San Juan Cathedral, Plazuela La Rogativa, and La Puerta de San Juan, your home provides immediate access to key landmarks while maintaining a quiet setting along a charming pedestrian street. Offered fully furnished, highlighting curated pieces by Serge Mouille, Poliform, Knoll and Roche Bobois. Dedicated private parking is available at a separate cost.
