Casa Cuarcita is a recognized architectural work (Firenze 2024 finalist, by OMOS Architects), built with rammed earth, compressed brick, local quarry stone and wood. Inside a private gated community with 24/7 security, natural lake and starry skies. Private heated pool year-round. 1h 10min from Monterrey, in the Montemorelos valley. Ideal to disconnect midweek, host family on weekends, or watch the 2026 World Cup in a house with soul.

The space
The house was designed by Paulina Talancón and Carina Fernández (OMOS Architects) to make the earth and silence part of the architecture. Built with rammed earth, compressed brick, local quarry stone and wood — materials that breathe with the valley climate.

— UPPER FLOOR: Master bedroom with king bed, full bath and valley view. Studio-bedroom with 2 queen beds. Upper terrace with grill and table for 8.

— OUTDOOR: Private heated pool year-round. Fire pit with wood included. Hammocks. Access to community lake. Covered parking for 2 cars.

Capacity: 6 guests. Children welcome.

Guest access
The entire house is yours. Full access to private heated pool (you don't share it with anyone), community lake (bridge, docks, hammocks), internal walking/running paths, and valley views.

Cantera Real has 24/7 security gate. Your arrival is coordinated with the guard — just give your name and they let you in. We send you the Google Maps location + entrance photo upon confirmation.
