If you’ve travelled that way, you’ve probably even noticed that it’s a little warmer there than in Cuenca. That’s because it’s about 800 feet lower, just enough to change the weather.

Want to get away to the country where you can have your own arboretum? To be able to walk on real grass and see flowers everywhere? To smell the eucalyptus trees at your feet? To have true peace and quiet? But want to keep all of the benefits of living in the city? Of being close to doctors and pharmacies. Of walking to the bank of the grocery store. Of meeting friends every day in different restaurants. So, you want all the peace and beauty of the country, but you still want to live with the benefits found only in the city? Hmmm…. tough to find that kind of life. But it is possible. It is possible to find an oasis in the city of Cuenca that will make you feel like you live among the trees and flowers and can enjoy true peace and tranquility.

It has 3 large light-filled bedrooms and 3.5 beautifully appointed bathrooms, and even an extra television/media room. The layout of the home is wide open and offers lots of options for configuration. Light floods into every room. The finishes are top of the line, including the real wood and stone tile floors, recessed lighting in the ceilings, and the large wall of glass that leads out to one of the most inviting covered terraces you’ll ever see. The open kitchen and dining areas make entertaining a dream and like the entire home, show off the level of care that was put into designing the condominiums in this high end, 24/7 security building. This is a special unit that offers country living in the city. It floods with light all day long and offers unrivaled indoor and outdoor spaces.
