This great Challuabamba 2-bedroom, open concept home has a beautiful, manicured yard and terrace and stunning countryside views. The house is 155 sq. meters (2098 sq. ft)and sits on 595 sq meters of land (0.12 acres.) It is located right outside of The Colony, one of the most coveted gated communities in Chaulliabamba and is just down the road from the newly-built Supermaxi, Ecuador's largest supermarket chain. Nestled between mountains, valleys, and gorgeous views, this adorable house also has an upstairs TV and family room, two bedrooms (the master is en-suite), and a lovely terrace, perfect for viewing the amazing sunsets. There is also a fireplace in the living room and a second fireplace on the patio.

Chaulkabanba is a growing bedroom community with stores, restaurants, banks, cafes, and everything you need for day-to-day living. It is favored by wealthy Ecuadorians and expats and land in this area is becoming harder to find and quite expensive, making this house a great investment. The town is just 20 minutes from Cuenca, Ecuador's 3rd largest city and its cultural capital. Traveling there is easy thanks to a modern Autopista

The exquisite 4-year-old home was designed by the co-owner of a highly-rated interior design company in Cuenca and has wonderful features including the open concept living area, with the kitchen, dining room, and living room flowing seamlessly together, a laundry room off the kitchen, an island for sitting and chatting with the chef,  a beautiful terrace and green-grass backyard big enough to build a small guest house should you want more room and perfect for a large vegetable garden or orchard. Chaullabamba has a lower elevation than Cuenca, and is therefore not only warmer (and sunnier) but also able to produce a wide array of vegetables, flowers and fruits. Already on the property are magnolia trees, chirimoya, lemon, and peach trees.

This special find is unfurnished, but appliances and some furnishings may be negotiated. Lighting fixtures and window treatments are included in the sales price.

The property has an electric fence surrounding the house, and a cistern with a water pump, so running out of water is never a problem. The house also has city water, electricity, and high-speed Internet

This great Challuabamba 2-bedroom, open concept home is listed for $245,000.
