Casa de Las Ranas & Chapel of Jimmy Ray. An eclectic house and garden of two American expats: artist Anado McLauchlin and his husband Richard Schultz. According to a LA Times reviewer, it is “the happiest house in San Miguel”. World travelers and this is reflected in the decor, which, they say, celebrates everyday life. They bought this property in 2001 and set about making it uniquely their own. Certainly nothing is ordinary and there’s lots of humor, such as the mosaic-covered arch topped by the painted skeleton of a cow’s head holding up a chandelier. The interior of the home is just as colorful as the garden. A purple fireplace dominates the living room and a wall in one of the bedrooms is painted in swirls of purple and orange. The kitchen is red.
