Three-bedroom new house in the west side of Ajijic, Mexico.
Especially suitable for families, digital nomads. It has a pool and 3 1/2 bathrooms. One of the bedrooms can be used as a dedicated work space with a small desk. Well landscaped.
We are in the tropics, but at 1,700 metres (5,100 ft). So we have rather good weather all year around.
Ajijic is a winter (or summer) getaway for Canadians and Americans in particular, and is a popular retirement area.

Ramon
Retired Canadian and Mexican/American. We can offer a 1-bed casita, a 1-bedroom casa (house), both in central Ajijic, or a 3-bedroom house just outside of town.
We are a married couple in our late 30's with one young son. We hope to travel more affordably by swapping our home with someone else, and/or do house/pet watching to help us get lodging to afford travel!
