LOCATION
La Huerta is one of the emerging residential pockets of Mérida Centro, benefiting tremendously from its proximity to the transformative Gran Parque La Plancha. Once centered around the city’s former railway facilities, this area has rapidly become one of the most desirable locations for residents seeking walkability, green spaces, and easy access to urban amenities.
The property’s standout feature is its location just steps from Gran Parque La Plancha, a world-class public park featuring extensive green areas, walking and cycling paths, recreational facilities, cultural spaces, playgrounds, restaurants, and direct connections to Mérida’s historic center. Residents can enjoy daily access to one of the city’s finest public spaces while remaining within walking distance of Paseo de Montejo, Calle 47’s vibrant restaurant scene, Paseo 60, museums, cafés, and supermarkets.
The combination of a quiet residential environment, excellent infrastructure, and ongoing investment in the surrounding area makes La Huerta increasingly attractive to both homeowners and investors. Few Centro neighborhoods currently offer such a compelling mix of lifestyle, convenience, and long-term appreciation potential.

MÉRIDA
Mérida, the capital of Yucatán, traces its rich history back to the ancient Mayan civilization and was founded in 1542 by Spanish conquistador Francisco de Montejo. Its historic center showcases magnificent colonial buildings and boulevards, including the iconic Paseo de Montejo, reflecting the city’s past wealth and charm. As the gateway to the Maya world, Mérida draws visitors to nearby sites like Chichen Itzá and Uxmal while offering residents a modern, safe, and vibrant lifestyle.
Renowned for its high quality of life, Mérida attracts expats from all over the world with its exceptional healthcare system, favorable climate, and welcoming community.
