This 1,518 sq. ft, 3-bedroom Cuenca penthouse has 872 sq feet of terraces with astounding panoramic views of Cuenca. High atop a hillside with truly remarkable views, this glass-fronted architecturally-designed Cuenca penthouse has sweeping cathedral ceilings, a bright and airy open concept living, dining, and kitchen area, a cozy loft -- perfect for relaxing with your favorite book -- 3 downstairs bedrooms, and 3 baths. 

The 2-story walk-up penthouse features two large, partially enclosed tiled terraces and two balconies, affording 360° views in a quiet setting in a rapidly developing residential area. Just off the master bedroom, there is a private covered terrace, designed with sunbathing and morning coffee in mind. The glass-enclosed terrace keeps you warm and toasty, away from the mountain breezes, and is designed with ultraviolet glass, keeping the ill effects of the sun from you as you relax.

This sophisticated light-filled condo has a European feel with an artful mix of colors, stone, glass, and natural fibers making it warm and organic, but also modern and polished. Appliances are included in the purchase price. Select furnishings may be negotiated and a fully furnished unit (with the exception of personal items and artwork) can also be negotiated.

Located at the edge of Cuenca’s core, just above the city's favored grocery store chain, Supermaxi Las Americas, the penthouse is tucked away from the noise and bustle of the downtown  El Cento, yet within easy access to the colonial, historic center of Cuenca. A bus stop is a block away, and the rapid transit system, the Tranvia, is within easy access.

An exceptional opportunity either as a residence or an investment property and easily rented at a good return, this modern apartment is rare in terms of its views and vistas and is priced to sell at $129.500 partially furnished.

The HOA is approximately $15 per month. The building is intimate, with only 7 apartments and is a no-elevator building.

So, if you are bored with living in a box and ready to try something different, this glass-fronted, architecturally-designed 1,518 sq. ft, 3-bedroom Cuenca penthouse with a loft and 872 sq feet of terraces may be just what you are looking for.
