The Top Portal for Cuenca Real Estate

Cuenca, with its cobblestone streets and stately mansions, has become one of the world´s top retirement destinations. The city, Ecuador´s third largest, is home to approximately 350,000 citizens, and an estimated 4,000 expats. It is an extremely walkable city, and expats often gather near the Parque Abdon Calderon for coffee or drinks. The city is flush with both modern conveniences including 18 hospitals, and with 4 major universities attracting students from all over the world, it is often referred to as the Athens of the Andes.

Cuenca´s temperatures range from 50-75 degrees Fahrenheit, and is often hailed as the city of eternal spring. For those who love the outdoors, Cajas National Park offers incredible year round hiking. Most expats live extremely well on $2000 a month.

If you are seeking a rich cultural life with international symphonies and ballets and a mix of the historic and the modern, come see what makes Cuenca such a special place to retire.

We see a lot or “remodels” here and frankly, most of them are no better than they were before they were fixed up. That had to be said because this amazing almost 1,800 square foot, 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom home was fully remodeled in 2018. But this was done by an American owner who knew what he wanted and brought the materials he needed from the US.

This prime 532 square meter Cuenca riverfront investment property is perfectly suited for commercial development or an exclusive luxury condo building in the heart of the beautiful UNESCO World Heritage site city of Cuenca. This was the dream of the property's owner, an American entrepreneur who is reluctantly putting this parcel of land up for sale due to other time-consuming business obligations. The land has already been cleared and is ready for immediate development. It is located in one of the top neighborhoods in Cuenca ... Puertas del Sol ... on the Tomebamba River. It could also be an amazing single-family home right on the river in a perfect location near to restaurants, cafes, hospitals, Supermaxi (Cuenca's largest grocery chain), and minutes away from the tram that will whisk you downtown in a blink of an eye. With this exceptional riverfront property, your beautiful views are ensured forever. Behind this riverfront property an exclusive new condominium building, Edificio Goya, is scheduled to be open in September 2021 and constructed by one of Cuenca's top architects, illustrating the popularity of this neighborhood and its prime location. The owner has already secured building permits (though they will require renewal) and has an architect/developer in mind that could build, and is familiar with the project. Interior designers are also on board who have experience bringing in containers filled with furniture, rugs, and lighting from around the world once the complex is completed, should the investors be interested in a full, turnkey project.

Yes, Gone With the Wind was the first thing that popped into our heads when we saw the magnificent entry way and staircase in this beautiful Cuenca home! But of course, in a house this grand, you must have an entrance like this! The home is 9,000 square feet with 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms! Big enough for a B&B, a high-end retirement home, or even your family and guests! Centrally located on 10,000 square feet of land on 12 de Abril, this mansion is one of those “behind the wall” hidden gems that Cuenca is famous for. The land alone is probably worth the asking price of $995,000! We must talk about that winding staircase first because it is breathtaking. Twisting up to the second floor, it is flooded in light from the giant overhead atrium style skylight that bathes the entire second floor and its balconies with sunshine. As grand as it is, it was built in an open-concept design, so it still allows the first-floor areas to feel open and inviting. Upon entering, once your eyes leave that beautiful staircase, you’ll see how large the open formal living room, dining room, bar area, chapel and social room are. And when you look up, after you stare at the beautiful crystal chandeliers, you’ll notice the balconies, one which comes off one of the guest bedrooms. And yes, we did say there was a chapel, which is a beautiful space set off by itself. A place where you can pray, meditate, or just contemplate in quiet. Then again, maybe the massive bar is the place for you to think! I know we thought about stopping for a scotch while we toured the home! Obviously in a home this grand, there is a huge light-filled kitchen with loads of cabinets and counter space and even an eat-in breakfast nook.
